THE DOCUMENTARY APPROACH

Observation and anticipating your moments is my biggest strength as a photographer. Observing without intervention allows for me to capture the genuine relationships you have with the people around you, and all the once in a lifetime moments that happen throughout your day. 

I genuinely believe that people do not need direction over every moment on their wedding day in order to have good photos. But I suppose that brings up the question— what makes a good photo to you? Is it a perfectly curated scene that was heavily directed, or is it the feeling of seeing the joy on someone's face that takes you back to that moment in time?

I’ve been photographing couples for a long time, and some of the best photos I take are when they didn’t even know I was taking a photo. My favorite photo from my own elopement was snapped when we didn’t know it was being taken. 

If you’d like to take portraits on your wedding/elopement day, I’ll be there to guide you through loose prompts and direction that makes sense for your unique relationship. It’s natural to become self conscious when you know a camera is on you, but I want to break through that insecurity and show you that how you already are is enough.
