My Story | Your Story

My wife and I were married in 2010. After being friends since the 5th grade, dating since high school, and engaged for over a year, I was struck by the gone-in-a-flash experience our wedding day was. It goes fast, just ask any of the couples I have worked for.

For one day, all your closest friends and family gather to celebrate your union, and it is going to be without a doubt one of the most cherished and memorable moments of your life. And the beauty of my work is that I have the power and privilege to freeze that time. How you go about freezing it is where the art comes in, and if you have spent some time on my site, thank you for considering my work.

To put it simply, I love what I do and feel incredibly lucky to do it for a living. For as long as I can remember I have been interested in using the visual arts to tell stories. I began as an avid drawer as a child, and as soon as I got my hands on my first camera I don't think I have put one down. I started taking pictures of friends in elementary school, and making movies in high school. I went to college and studied film, and my photography work is resultingly cinematic. I don't think there was any other option for me than to spend my life looking at the world through a lens.

I have been working as a freelance artist for the last 20 years and have been a full time wedding photographer since 2016. During that time I have had the honor to document over 400 love stories, and learned a ton along the way. My work is a hybrid of effortless, natural editorial photography, and timeless documentary moments. Outside of the time you give me to take some stylish portraits I do everything I can to let the day unfold honestly in front of my lens.

When I am not shooting and editing, I am spending time with my wife Nicole, two sons Max and Leo, or scheming away at various creative projects. Thank you again for considering my work, I hope to hear your wedding plans soon.
