I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

My professional background was cultivated in the field of architecture and design. But around 2010, my obsession with photography overcame my passion for architecture and I changed course. Through years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve developed a genuine love and appreciation for these emotional events. To me, weddings are emotionally-charged, symbolic celebrations. They often inspire pure expressions, words and feelings from the couple and their family and friends.

Storytelling photography that brings your story to life. There is a story to everything right? There is certainly one to your wedding and even to a portrait session. The in-between moments can be the best moments! Images tell a story and they are there for me to find. This isn’t one image. It is a series of images that provoke emotion and thought. This happens with trust and openness and I know I can only get this if you trust me and I am open enough for you to do that. When there is this intimacy, I can get to the heart of the images and that is when the storytelling photography happens.

For some unknown reason I have loved weddings since I was a kid. That’s the first thing. But then… I got married. And that is indescribable. So… if you happen to be here because you have met someone special, and you are making moves, CONGRATULATIONS! You really are in for the ride of a lifetime. So… my first photos? Yup. They were from a wedding! Unfortunately they took the human knee as their subject because I was short, because I was five years old. One auspicious day I brought a camera to a friends’ wedding. I partied. I had a fabulous time. Afterwards they told me I should have said something, my photos were better than the hired pro.

I fell in love with photography while I was living in Nairobi, Kenya for a few months. When I returned to Penn State, I decided to change my major to photojournalism! I started a portrait photography business in college and continued after graduation. Now, a full time wedding photographer living in San Francisco, I couldn't be more thankful for that trip to Kenya! It led me to my passion and has allowed me to live it out!

i believe in capturing your day as it unfolds. documenting what is happening not dictating it. making sure those little detailed moments don’t go unnoticed. there is so much beauty to be told when you just let things happen as they will. i study what is in front of me, in real time — the people, the emotion, the light when it hits a certain way and then encapsulate it for you. i am deeply rooted in my feelings and want my images to reflect that as well as reflect the emotion of the day. my hope is that you can look back at your images and relive every loving moment.

I am a documentary and commercial photographer based in San Francisco, California, living amongst the fog with my little family that includes a wiener dog named Angus. One of my favorite childhood pastimes was flipping through the thick pages of my grandparents’ wedding album. I can still remember the smell of the leather binding, and the way the photographs curled up at the ends.

Originally from Thailand, I’ve been blessed to live my own love story. My wife Patta and I remember our own wedding day like it was yesterday. Four cities and two children later, I’m still an old-fashioned romantic.

And now the "dating website profile": My friends would probably describe me as a big happy goof ball, sentimental to a fault, and one suffering from FOMO (fear of missing out). I am drawn to challenges, seek adventure, and live for making people laugh. I cry at every wedding, have boxes filled with memorabilia dating as far back as 7th grade, and so many photo albums that you could stack them to the heavens. I believe all these pieces of me come out in my photography.
