My Approach

That feeling though.

It all begins with that feeling, the one that pulls at your heartstrings and takes your breath away. The quiet little moments, the loud belly laughs with the ones who know you best, that’s where the magic happens.

Let me be that fly on the wall and capture those real and honest moments, the ones you remember and wish you could never forget.

  • I lean heavily toward capturing authentic, unscripted moments. You won't find any forced or cheesy poses here – no staged scenes or awkward half-smiles. It's about the real, authentic, essence of your story.

    While I could capture beautiful images against a cool sunset, that's not my main focus. It’s about true connection. This isn't about ticking off a checklist of posed images or ensuring every detail falls perfectly into place.

    . It's about capturing more profound moments – the authentic core of who you are, the real emotions, and the moments that tell your story. If you're in the market for a photographer specializing in the typical, posed, "perfect-looking" shots, we might not be the best match.

    Let's curate an experience that goes beyond the conventional, embracing the beauty found in imperfections and cherishing the raw, real moments that define your unique story. If this resonates with you, then we sound like a perfect fit!

    That being said, we can definitely capture a few portraits to send to the relatives.

  • Let's ditch the conventional "getting photos done" mindset and dive into a collaborative journey. I believe that the best photographs are born out of genuine connections, so building that trust is crucial.

    My main focus is ensuring you have an awesome time throughout the process, and creating something you can take home and cherish. It's not uncommon for my clients to start with, "Sorry, we're awkward and hate getting our photo taken," but by the end, they're raving about how unexpectedly easy and fun it was. Trust me, the photo-taking experience doesn't have to be a drag; it can be genuinely relaxed and fun. Let's make sure you not only get amazing photos but also have a great experience!

  • I don't stick to one specific style because every client’s story is so different. I make sure that the way I'm interacting, shooting, and editing reflects who my clients are and how things are experienced. It's those small, meaningful details that make all the difference. My artistic choices aren't for my benefit—they're all about capturing your memories authentically, not mine.

    I'm all about quality over quantity, ensuring that together, we create something you'll cherish forever. When I think back on the most precious photos I have, I know exactly where they are, I remember the moments they were taken, and it takes me right back to that feeling. If my house was burning down, I’d fight like hell to make sure they make it out safe.

I do things a bit differently.

It’s all about connection and trust - its my goal for you to relax and have a good time all while I’m snapping away, as if I’m one of your friends just along for the ride. I might be right up in your face, or creeping around behind a bush. For me, it’s all about getting that real connection, the photos that you don’t even realize were being taken, that might be a little blurry, a little messy, a little unorthodox. But there’s something fantastic about breaking out of the mold and making it your own, isn’t there?

Take some time to consider my approach and what to expect to see if we’re the right fit for each other. It is my goal for you to have the most positive experience possible while we spend our time together.
