Documentary

Photographer

Wedding

My style can best be described as documentary—giving you a mix of timeless elegance and real, candid moments. I prioritize authenticity and spontaneity in my approach, aiming to preserve the genuine emotions and moments of your wedding day. My method is to seamlessly blend in with the crowd, allowing me to document moments as they happen organically— ensuring that every laugh, tear, and quiet glance is preserved without interruption. I also know when to guide and direct without disrupting a moment or creating awkwardness.

I am a firm believer you can have a meaningful blend of documentary and editorial images in a wedding gallery. My priority is for you to be fully present, soaking in every moment, while I thoughtfully and creatively capture the story of your wedding day.

Frequently asked
questions

DO YOU TRAVEL?

Yes! I love traveling! I would love to travel to you or with you to document your love story! 

DO YOU USE PHOTOSHOP?

The only editing I will do to alter an image are minor things like skin retouching or taking out objects that would not normally be there and are distracting. Other than that, I do not use photoshop.

DO YOU HAVE ANY BUCKET LIST LOCATIONS?

Yes! I have compiled a list of locations around the world that I have been dying to create at. You can find my bucket list locations at the bottom of my About page. Discounts may apply, so please inquire.

WHAT IS YOUR TURNAROUND TIME?

For weddings, 4-6 weeks. All other sessions are 2-3 weeks. Turnaround times are an estimate, not a guarantee.

DO YOU HELP WITH POSING?

Of course! I never leave my clients hanging or expect them to know how to pose. My photo style is very candid, so I give a mix of prompts and poses. I love to focus on capturing how each session feels and how unique every love story is. I’ll bring music and we’ll have a good time!

WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH?

My approach to wedding days is finding the perfect spot between prompting & curating moments and documenting real & completely candid ones. I want to capture your day just as you remember it. My priority is for you to be fully present, soaking in every moment, while I thoughtfully and creatively capture the story of your wedding day.
