I have worked in the wedding industry for the better part of a decade and believe photography to be an ever evolving art form. When the wedding day has drawn to a close and only the photographs remain as testimony, I understand that every image contributes to the complex portrait of what a wedding really is.

When I photograph a wedding I consider myself part of an event. I don't believe my function is to be a fly on the wall while the world passes by, rather, I am interactive. My photography reflects a high level of involvement and personal connection with the people, feelings and energy of the day. I step into your world and make it my own. When we click, it's magic.

Having worked almost ten years for one of the Duke City's largest photography studios, I felt it was time to open up the door to a new breed of wedding photography. I decided that the high volume atmosphere was not for me. I prefer a more personal relationship with my clients.

Over the years I have learned that weddings are about more than pretty pictures. They are about emotions, beauty and energy; an ever present spirit that fills the day; this is what I strive to capture. I use the camera as a tool to document the day and tell your story, to find the subtleties that make your day unique.

I look forward to cultivating a professional and personal relationship with each individual I photograph. Anybody can learn to use a camera and take pretty pictures. I want you to know yours are heart felt and personal.

I have been honored to shoot many events over the years, and I have enjoyed the wonderful accolades that have come with that. Although I consider my greatest strength to be my creative ability, my success is not just about having an artistic eye. I love the opportunity that I have to make lasting memories for my clients and I believe that the quality of my images is directly tied to the connection and the laughter we share during our session.  

The most enjoyable aspect of my profession is the opportunity I have to build relationships with my clients and to have fun! I consider it a wonderful honor to get to know you and to be part of a special time spent with you.

My goal is to capture moments that will strike an emotional chord every time you see them. I love being able to create beautiful images that will have true meaning and help you remember all of the magic in your life. To me, there is nothing better.
