WHAT I BELIEVE
I think the wedding industry has really lost touch with what wedding days are actually about.
I’m talking both vendors and couples. It kills me. I’ve worked for many money-hungry photographers lacking compassion and empathy. I’ve captured many days where my couple has been pulled in a million different directions: they’re trying to please everyone and create the best event they can that they forget their day is actually supposed to be about them.
What do you want to remember about your day? The flowers you chose? The $ you spent on your cake? Nope- the memories. I care about documenting your MEMORIES and capturing every raw emotion. Because that’s what it’s truly about.
We all worry too much about things that don’t matter. The moments you share with the people you love matter, because life is short and people don’t stay on this earth forever. I want to tell your story. And I want to tell your story as naturally and authentically as possible.
MY STYLE
Natural, documentary, photojournalistic. Real, raw, candid. We’re not going for any stiff prom poses here.
I like to capture the day as it is and to document it as it unfolds. I never want to force anything, but I step in and direct where needed. I know how awkward it can feel when you’re not used to getting your photo taken! I will be here to guide you and prompt you the whole way, I promise.
In my opinion this is more than “just business.” It’s more than just taking & editing photos well. My business and my work is a representation of how I show up in my own life and care, and so it’s essential for me to connect with my couples.
