UNSCRIPTED & TRUE TO YOU
My style is and has always been about capturing real, and honest moments. No forced poses that feels untrue to you, no cheesy setups.. definitely no awkward half-smiles. While I'll always direct you for certain shots, I’m not here to stage your day. I’m here to document it as it genuinely unfolds.
In wedding and elopement photography, I like to think of your day as a collaboration-both of us creating something that feels like you and your partner. I won’t spend your wedding day directing every measured movement or fussing over perfectly arranged dresses. My most memorable shots are the ones where you didn't even notice I was there.
MEANING OVER TRADITION
You might need to hear this: You don’t have to follow tradition to have a wedding that feels meaningful. I’m here for couples who want to make their day their own...whatever that looks like. I’ve heard so many couples say, “I wish we had done it differently,” or, “We didn’t even really want a first dance...we don't dance,” as they’re about to get on the floor. That’s the kind of stuff that sticks with me.
So whether you're planning an intimate backyard ceremony, eloping in your favorite city, hiking with your dog to the top of Glacier Point to say your I-do's, or just skipping the usual formalities and focusing on what matters most to you—I'm all in. Maybe it's writing your vows in your living room the morning of, getting ready together instead of apart, wearing a pink dress and a patterned suit, or choosing pizza over a plated dinner. You don’t have to prove anything to anyone. It just needs to feel right to you.
I’ll be there to document it all in a way that feels unfiltered and honest. These moments are worth remembering exactly as they are. I want your photos to bring you back to how it all felt - the joy, the laughter, the quiet, the chaos, the love. That’s what matters most to me.
TIMELESS & UNDEFINED STYLE
A very understandable and important question I get asked most when couples inquire is "what is your style of photography?". And after notching another year in my belt it has become a tougher and tougher question to answer. Every couple is unique, every wedding has a different feel, every setting has an array of colors and ambiance that is incomparable to the last. It goes without saying that each place and couple deserve photos that are delicately curated to match exactly what the day felt like.
All artistic choices are never made to benefit me. These are your memories and I always want to make sure it's being captured in a way that feels like you're reliving the day again. My main focus is always quality over quantity, true tones, a bit of film emulation, a lot of real film thrown in the mix. Something that truly feels valuable and that can be looked back at with an ease knowing you'll always love the way your memories were captured. While most of my photos are candid or candid-adjacent, I believe the real magic is in how your photographer directs you. When you're shooting with me, I put the directors hat on, yell action and then never shut up. I'll give you tons of movement based ideas to play with, throw in a few editorial poses, and always making small corrections whether it be for the dress, posture, your hair, etc.
CONNECTION & COMFORTABILITY
If you're here reading this, I'll safely assume you enjoy what I produce-which is amazing and I am beyond flattered...BUT (and a big butt if I may) you need to have a connection with your photographer. When we have our initial client call, it's the perfect time to feel out if the vibes match the photos. You need to find someone to actually confide in, to trust, and someone that makes you feel not only like your best self, but (as corny as it sounds) a friend.
When I show up to a wedding or elopement, I strive to act as a guest of the wedding. Showering you with the right compliments, helping you with your dress, cleaning up spaces for shots, mingling with your closest people. You need that kind of person if you're going to pull out the best of your personality through an image. Plus, it's the biggest day of your life so far! The best benefit of having me there is I'll assess the vibes, I'll match them and then fill in whatever is missing from the environment.
