When choosing a photographer for your wedding day, it’s so much more than just picking a style you like. I will be with you more than any other person, up close and personal. The attitude and energy I’ll bring will make your day go so much smoother, boost your confidence, and bring you peace of mind knowing that I have your back.

I’m your last-minute hair stylist, makeup artist, therapist, chauffeur, you name it. I’m here for you and will continue to be a part of your journey long past the moment you say I do.
