What you’re planning isn’t just a wedding. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime expression of your story, bold, joyful, and undeniably you. My role is to preserve it all with heart, artistry, and a feel for what makes it yours.

With a calm, confident presence and a refined documentary style, I approach every celebration with care and intention. I capture not just how it looked, but how it felt. The big moments, the quiet glances, the champagne-soaked dance floor… all of it.

Because the most meaningful images don’t just reflect your day. They reflect you.

WEEKEND

THE WEDDING

EXPERIENCE

About your options

The celebration doesn’t start at the aisle. From dress fittings to bridal showers and engagement parties, these early moments are full of meaning. I document them with the same intentionality as the wedding day itself, so you can remember the full story, from the very beginning.

pre-wedding
moments

The night before is more than a warm-up. It’s laughter over dinner, heartfelt toasts, and the joyful reunion of everyone you love. Whether it’s under the stars or gathered around a table, these moments set the tone—and often become the ones you never want to forget.

Rehearsal & Welcome Coverage

Beyond the ceremony and celebration, there’s the quiet beauty in between. The glances, the deep breaths, the once-in-a-lifetime feeling. I blend intentional guidance with documentary storytelling to capture your day not just as it looked, but as it felt.

Wedding Day Storytelling

The final morning is the perfect close, think sun-drenched brunches, farewell toasts, and one last moment to soak it all in. Whether it’s casual coffee or a curated send-off, these moments are just as meaningful. Documented with style and heart, it’s the last chapter in a weekend you’ll never forget.
