My wedding photography style merges photojournalism with fine art photography. While I do approach your wedding day with a photojournalistic style, I will stylize any details as needed, take some family formals and direct you into beautiful lighting with a few prompts along the to create some beautiful portraits from your wedding day. I’m happy to grab you some water or bustle your dress. It’s your day and it’s my honor to be part of such a beautiful experience.

When it comes to family portraits or engagement sessions, they run about one hour long typically an hour or two before sunset. We will stroll around a field or beach stopping off along the way. I do my best to keep things moving for any of the little ones so it is more of an adventure of exploring and fun.

If you're a new mom, I come to you for your newborn session in home so you can stay warm and comfy. Those sessions can run up to two hours as we take as much time needed to clean, cuddle and coo to make it an enjoyable experience. I'm happy to connect by phone if you'd like to discuss more of my process and what to expect from your time with me.

Portrait Sessions: 2 weeks

While I did learn on film and strive for my edits to resemble film, I switched to full digital several years ago. I currently shoot with Canon 5D Mark IV camera bodies. My favorite lens is my 50mm 1.2. My 35mm 1.2 is a fav for the dance floor and I also have a 100mm prime macro lens along two zoom lenses from 16-35mm and 70-200mm and a couple flashes.
