THE APPROACH & STRENGTHs

As a professional wedding photographer, I strive to provide a photojournalistic and organic approach to capturing your special day.  My goal is to capture real moments and emotions as they unfold, creating genuine and timeless images that will last a lifetime. While I believe in the importance of candid shots, I also recognize the value of traditional posed photos and artistic, cinematic or editorial style images. By combining these approaches, I can provide you with a beautiful blend of candid and posed shots that truly capture the essence of your wedding day and the love and joy shared by you and your loved ones.
With over 13 years of experience as a wedding and lifestyle photographer, I have shot over 700 weddings and hundreds of portrait sessions. My work has been featured in various magazines, blogs, and photography directories both in the US and worldwide, and I have even won several awards from competitions worldwide.
When selecting a photographer for your wedding day, it's essential to examine their portfolio for consistency and editing style. My priority is to produce authentic and enduring photographs with true-to-life colors, rather than conforming to preset trends. I take pride in my bold editing style and strive to ensure that everyone in the photos looks their best, with beautiful skin complexion and overall coloring.
I would love to capture the magic of your wedding day and provide you with beautiful, timeless photos that you can cherish for years to come. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to book a session.

My priority is to produce photographs that are authentic in color and enduring, as opposed to conforming to established preset trends.

Common FAQs

Q: How long have you been a photographer?

A: As a graphic designer specializing in website design, I have routinely utilized cameras to capture images of clients' products for inclusion on their respective websites. In 2010, a friend requested that I photograph their wedding, which served as a pivotal moment in my career. This experience ignited my passion for wedding photography, and I have since become deeply invested in this field.
Throughout my career, I have honed my ability to perform exceptionally well under pressure and leverage the challenges of the wedding day to inspire my creative output. I am proud to have successfully photographed over 700 weddings, both in the United States and abroad, and look forward to continued success in this field.

Q: WHAT IS THE Turnaround time?

A: Turnaround - I understand the importance of capturing the special moments of your big day. That's why I typically deliver the final images between 6 to 8 weeks after the wedding. It will allow me to carefully edit and retouch each image to ensure they look their best.
Before the final delivery, I also provide preview images to my clients. These are a selection of my favorite images from the day and give you a sneak peek at the final product. Previews are usually delivered within 2 to 4 weeks of the wedding.

Q: Do I need a second photographer?

A: All packages have a Second shooter/Assistant included. We are a Husbund and wife team. We also have a Third photographer available to be added on your package (Back up Shooter) upon request.

Q: Do I need an engagement session?

A: That totally depends on your needs. You can use the photos for your save-the-dates, invitations, website registries, guest books, framed prints for your guest table, bar, and your house... and of course Facebook & Instagram! Plus, it's a way for you to get a little practice in front of the camera before your big day and it gives us an opportunity to get to know each other. :) Personally, I highly recommend it. And heck, it's also a really great way to add to your experience as an engaged couple. Make the most of it! 

Q: What kind of equipment do you use?

A: This might start getting a bit technical, but I personally use a 8 different Top Notch Nikon cameras. Four cameras with different lenses are literally on me and my assistant at all times throughout your wedding day so I never have to worry about changing lenses, switching memory cards, or changing batteries. Every moment matters - and this is where the 13+ years of experience really kicks in.

Q: Do you offer any albums, prints, canvases, guest books, etc?

A: Totally! But I want you feeling 1,000% comfortable and excited about the quality of your photographs before placing orders on those. That way, you only order exactly what you want, when you want, and when you know with confidence that they are going to look amazing on your walls and in your fine art heirloom albums. And all of this is done & ordered right through your online gallery! 

Q: Do you offer payment plans?

A: Yes, I do! Traditional payments are 25% due at the time of booking and the final 70% is due 7 days prior to your wedding day. But, if you pay anytime on your online portal "invoice tab". 

Q: what happens if you aren't able to make it to our big day?

In the super unlikely event that I am too ill, injured, or there's some other emergency, either I or my wife have a list of colleagues that we can call on to replace me that have similar styles of photography & editing. That said, in the 13+ years I've been doing this full-time, I have never even been 60 seconds late. You're in good hands. I promise.

Q: How do I book you for my wedding day?

A: Love that question the most! To book me for your special day, simply let me know what you want included in your custom collection: 1) Number of hours of coverage, 2) Engagement session (optional), 3) Back Up 3rd photographer, and 4) Personal Info (Full Names, Email, Phone#'s) .  Then, we will design your quote/contract/invoice and send it to you by email. You should review it, sign the contract and pay the 25% deposit to book your date.
