Hi, I’m Taylor. I’m drawn to the parts of a wedding day you can’t plan—the way your hands find each other in a crowded room, your mom watching with tears in her eyes when you aren’t looking, the nervous breath before you walk down the aisle, and all of the beautiful little moments happening in between. My work is cinematic, romantic, and vintage-inspired, blending digital + film with a documentary approach. I’ll gently guide you when you need it and step back when you don’t. Because someday, the flowers will be gone and the music will stop. These photographs are how you’ll remember not just how it looked, but how it felt.
