Weddings
I consider myself so lucky to pay my taxes by doing something I love. I have a front row seat and capture all of the emotions and little stories that take place on wedding day.
......it's simply a privilege to preserve memories for people....memories to last lifetimes.
Weddings are an amazing Life Event and photographers have a front row
seat to observe it all….what an awesome job we have!
My goal is to
capture all of the emotions and special moments that occur on wedding
days…..and do so in a fun, unobtrusive and prompt manner.
I try not to
influence the day too much, rather simply let it unfold and capture it
in a documentary style as much as possible.
There are some shots
however that cannot be captured in this style (such as Family and some
Bridal Portraits), so there will be a few occasions where advice and
guidance may be given to ensure that the shot is well composed and the
subjects look relaxed in front of the camera.

Portaits
I love spending time with my subject for portraits....trying to build a bond and a common point of interest...building trust, and capturing the results!"You don't take a photograph, you make it."
