Things you Should Know

I offer both options. Adding a second photographer for your wedding day is a game-changer. The flurry of action and emotional reactions that occur throughout your day will be captured from multiple angles by myself and another trusted professional from my network. Regardless of your wedding’s size, adding a second shooter is invaluable and recommended.
Once you reach out and schedule a video chat or an in-person meeting, I’ll softly pencil in your date, giving you first dibs before anyone else. No stress, just love!
Life’s surprises won’t compromise your wedding photography. Over time, I’ve built a trusted network of professionals whom I regularly work with as a second shooter, and vice versa. In the rare event I’m absent, one of these familiar faces can step in, guaranteeing your day is documented with the same unwavering quality and attention to detail.
Yes, I’m always ready to pack my bags for to travel to new places for weddings. Each new location offers a fresh canvas and a wonderful opportunity for lifelong learning and adventure.
While I am the lead photographer, if you prefer a female photographer to join me, I have connections with many talented women in the field who can provide additional coverage, making sure we document your day perfectly.
