"I first picked up a camera at age 13, and have been refining my ability to capture the world around me in an honest, and artful light ever since. I was fortunate enough to have family who encouraged me to pursue an artistic career and found my way to photography at an early age. Simply put – I love what I do! It is a privileged to be an artist professionally. To share what I create with my clients knowing the work will inspire joy, and shape how important life moments are set to memory for the years to come, and for future generations. 

In the last decade I’ve had the opportunity to work with true powerhouse couples and industry leaders - innovators, creatives, and trendsetters. I’ve traveled the world because of this job, and experienced some of the most beautiful places on earth. I am not interested in making cookie-cutter pictures for my clients - I want to create iconic, emotional photographs that will instantly transport you back to those precious moments. I don’t prescribe myself to a specific niche of weddings - I shoot sunny outdoor events. I shoot sexy and moody urban events. Fabulous weekend long destination parties, and intimate ceremonies at home. I love it all, and I seek to embrace the unique energy and story each celebration will tell about the people in attendance.

I want to make images that bleed passion and color, seep humor and excitement, and expose the beautiful, whimsical, spontaneous moments of real life, family, and love."
