While I am absolutely in awe of beauty, light and color; beyond all of that, I am drawn to people. I *love* people– I enjoy getting to know each of my clients– their interests, their history, their personalities, what they love most about each other. At the end of it all, capturing their unique story in a visual way is my passion. My photography is personal, thoughtful and eclectic.
It is my hope that these photos will give couples a “return ticket” to these moments and memories, and will in a way, immortalize their story and their relationships while also being beautiful pieces of art. Wow, that just got deep, hahaha. Anyway, here are just a few images that I captured recently and the stories behind them.
