MY APPROACH + STYLE


My style is often described as intentional, natural, & candid. I regularly practice mindfulness, which helps me to predict and capture your real & authentic moments at your very best. This mindful approach allows me to capture your day from both a documentary angle (capturing moments as a "fly on the wall") to an editorial one (moments where I direct or guide you into "magazine worthy" shots).


My favorite couples to photograph are those who have planned their dream wedding day with intentional details and purpose, yet are able to truly "let go" and enjoy each moment as it unfolds, as if nothing else matters except for their love for one another and the people who surround them on their happiest day.
