Your wedding day shouldn't feel like a photoshoot. It should feel like your wedding - surrounded by the people you love, completely present in whatever happens next.
My role is to make photography feel like a natural part of that experience. To know when a little direction will help, when to step back, and where to look when everyone else is looking somewhere else.
The best photographs rarely come from planning every moment. But good preparation means that when the day arrives, you don't need to think about the photography at all.
We'll talk through what's important to you, the people who matter and how the day is taking shape. I'll help with timing, light and the practical details that make everything feel easier - without turning your wedding into a schedule built around photographs.
I arrive early, giving myself time to settle in, meet the people around you and get a feel for how the day is unfolding.
From there, I work intuitively - anticipating what's coming, noticing what's happening around me and adapting along the way.
No two celebrations are quite the same, and the photography shouldn't be either.
After more than 700 weddings, much of that has become instinctive.
A hand reaching for another. Your dad watching from across the room. A friend already laughing before the joke has landed. The chaos happening three tables away while everyone's attention is on the speeches.
The ceremony, portraits and first dance matter. But so does everything happening around them.
That's where much of the story lives.
Portraits don't need to take over the day.
I'll find beautiful light, give you enough direction to feel comfortable and create photographs with intention - without asking you to perform for the camera or spending hours away from the people you came to celebrate with.
Refined without feeling rehearsed.
A wedding brings together people who may never all be in the same place again. Parents. Grandparents. Siblings. Old friends. New families. The people who shaped you and the people who will be part of whatever comes next.
I'm always looking for those relationships - not simply who's standing beside you, but how they interact when nobody thinks they're being photographed.
Because years from now, those photographs can become some of the most important ones.
