meet the photographer
“My love for my sweet sweet husband is why I do what I do and why I love documenting couples and weddings. His tireless nurturing of us and those around him is my continued source of inspiration. I appreciate the enormous weight of this commitment and promise to always put a piece of my heart into every photograph I create.”

I’m an observer but will jump in when appropriate! My mission is to thoughtfully and artistically document your precious event that you have so carefully designed to celebrate your love. I aim to capture it in a way that feels wholeheartedly true to you, life, and natural to how events unfolded. I’m not chasing posed and unrealistic versions of you and I sure hope you do not feel pressured to be anything other than your truest selves.

Yes yes! While I shoot lots and lots of weddings in Virginia, I am very willing and excited to travel to where ever you are having yours. Having traveled for my own wedding, I understand what it is like planning such a monumental occasion from miles away. All travel costs are included in my wedding packages!

It varies depending on what we’re shooting, but I promise I’ll always include plenty of images of everything I capture and hold nothing back. I don’t like to give a number cap because I don’t believe in withholding any images from you to get you to pay more like some photographers do. These are your memories, I promise to capture them fully and give you more than enough images to remember this time in your lives!

The turnaround depends on how much I shoot, how busy I am, my travel schedule, and the holidays. Typically, for sessions it takes 4 weeks and weddings take 8-10 weeks. I try to get them back to you as soon as possible while making sure I give time to each and every image needs.
