Your Story is Special
Nothing gets me more excited to pick up my camera than a wedding!
There is something energizing about spending the day with two people in love! It's such an honor when a couple invites me into their lives to document their most treasured moments. I can't help but pour every ounce of energy, creativity and experience into capturing the story of the day in the most beautiful way possible for them to relive for the rest of their lives.

Telling stories with images and have been a passion of mine since I was 10 years old. My photography career began in 1997 when I shot my first wedding and fell in love with it immediately. Since then I have worked with hundreds of amazing couples all over the country. In addition to photographing weddings I was the staff photographer for The Daily Record newspaper from 1999-2018. While working as an award-winning photojournalist I honed my skills operating under daily time constraints, extreme weather conditions and challenging lighting situations. I enjoy working with a variety of people of all ages and walks of life and I'm proud to say that a lot of my clients have become friends.
One major thing that sets me apart from other photographers is my understanding and use of lighting... that is what makes you look your best. When available light is not ideal I will use my on location studio lighting equipment to ensure the most flattering images and make you and your guests look and feel like movie stars.

Not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera. No matter your comfort level I will help you get over your fears while making the experience fun and effortless. First, an engagement shoot is included with all packages so we can get to know each other before the big day. Throughout the wedding day I will build on that experience while thinking strategically so you spend less time posing and more time enjoying your family and friends. After all that is what your big day is all about.

Whether you are planning an intimate ceremony or grand celebration, I will always put in my full effort to bring all of my knowledge and experience along to tell your wedding story in the most stunning way!
Wedding Stories
I have documented hundreds of weddings over the years and they all have been one of a kind. I learn something new from each experience and I am always searching for creative ways of telling stories with images. Whether you are planning a destination wedding or saying your vows in you own backyard, I will always go the distance for you.

Engagements
There is no better way to get to know your photographer before the big day than booking an engagement session. It is a great opportunity for us to get to know each other as well as capture some fun and classic portraits of the two of you. I don't just take pretty pictures, I like to caputure the essence of who you are and what makes your union so unique and meaningful.
