I am, and always have been, drawn to images that capture human emotion. It’s been my deepest motivator for my imagery. Naturally, that pull towards the heart led me to the wedding industry.

My photography style changes moment-to-moment. I have worked for a variety skills to pull many different methods of shooting and styling, in order to use the best mode of imagery to compliment the moment. From editorial posing or funky lighting and angles, to a complete candid, the traditional classics, and more – I believe there are moments for all techniques in a wedding day.

What is it that makes an image magical?
I believe a magical image is made by a photographer who is able to be present in a moment. One who is given enough freedom, both logistically and creatively, in order to capture the unique and unpredictable moments throughout a day.
What advice would you give couples when selecting their wedding photographer?
When you’re selecting your wedding photographer, always pay attention to their past work in order to see their learned methods. Even more so – pay attention to their current favorites and inspiration; that will be the best tell of what direction their work will be in the future.
