IT’S YOUR WEDDING DAY, NOT MY PHOTOSHOOT.
An honest, storytelling approach that’s people-centered and moment-driven for photographs that will make you feel like you were there again.
DEAR MARRIERS
I’m a firm believer that weddings don’t exist only to be photographed. You picked a place that spoke to the both of you and carefully crafted an experience for your guests because this is not just about the two of you, but also the people from all parts of your lives who have shown up to support you in this milestone event.
After the food is eaten, the flowers are gone, and your attire is put away, what you have left is the wonderful photographic evidence of what happened and what it felt like.
Your images will be an honest, unstaged, and uncoerced reflection of how your people came together to celebrate a momentous day.
My hope is that years from now, you’ll be able to recognize yourselves as you truly were, among your community of family and friends, with images that prove how much you are loved. Those looking at your photographs decades later will feel like they know the people in them and how the day moved and felt.
