Weddings have become a massive production.

Between months of endless deadlines, long checklists, and pressure to perform, your celebration with your favorite people can start to feel like a high-stakes show.

My goal is to help you opt out of the wedding machine so you can actually be present for your own day.

A polished portfolio shows what’s possible in ideal conditions, but real weddings are unpredictable. Great candid images and natural portraits are downstream from how comfortable you feel. My photojournalism background helps me to stay calm and adaptable, also keeping your nerves at ease so those standout moments unfold no matter what the day brings.

I treat your wedding like a real event, not a staged performance. You’ll get clear, gentle direction for formals and family portraits, but for the rest of the day, I blend into the background, read the room, and capture what actually happened.

If you want two hours of exhaustive group photos, missed cocktail hours, and staged champagne toasts, I’m not your photographer. If you want a grounded, stress-free guide who lets you drop the performance and just enjoy your party, you've come to the right place.
