More Than Two Decades Behind the Camera

For over 20 years, I’ve had the honor of photographing weddings across seasons, cities, and generations. With every wedding, my perspective has grown — not just as a photographer, but as a husband, a father, and someone who values family stories at a deeper level.

How Life Shaped My Approach

Early in my career, I was always searching — chasing moments, scanning the room for the “big” shots. And while that energy brought me powerful images, it also taught me something: when you’re too busy looking, you sometimes miss what’s right in front of you.

Life experiences shifted my perspective.

• After losing my grandfather, I realized how deeply meaningful it is to capture grandparents in honest ways. Not just the smiles, but the quiet looks, the quirks, even the grouchy expressions — because they’re true. Those images are how I remember him, and they’ve made me intentional about documenting these bonds at every wedding.

• After getting married myself, I began to see weddings differently. Experiencing my own day helped me recognize the subtle, fleeting moments couples often don’t realize are happening — the ones that become the most cherished memories later.

My Philosophy Today

Now, my approach is less about “searching” and more about being present. I photograph with patience, empathy, and openness — letting moments unfold as they are, honoring them for what they truly are, rather than trying to fit them into a mold.

I blend candid, documentary-style storytelling with timeless portraits, but at the heart of it, my work is about presence. I want couples to look back at their gallery and not only see what their day looked like, but feel what it was like to be there.
