About Me

During a precious, super-important moment for me, my photographer snapped some pics. He is skilled at his craft; however, he came to document an event rather than capturing the moment. I started then questioning the real purpose of photography, and my ever-deepening answer is that it arrests a moment: the magic, the chemistry, the spark and gives us a way to remember even details that we may have missed in that moment. I want to tell the story of those that are in front of my lens; not just a note of what they looked like that day. I fall in love with each subject's story and I am driven to portray that through their images. Before the shutter even clicks; I indulge myself in learning more about the life and loves of my subject(s), all so that the final image displays their light as well as their life.

I began photography in 2007 and by 2010 it was my fulltime career focus. My first wedding was in 2009 with upteen bajillion bridal party members; TRIAL by FIRE to say the least. Since then I have shot well over 200 wedding ceremonies/elopements. In 2013, I started shooting models for agencies and editorials across the country. Fashion photography is quite different depending on the nature and client of the shoot, yet my goal is the same: To create an image that leaves the viewer with a story that reveals a feeling.
