Congratulations on your engagement, and thank you for visiting my page to explore my work. I'm a journalistic and fine art wedding photographer based in Newark, Delaware, but I LOVE to travel to destinations worldwide. My photography style is all about capturing natural, timeless, and meaningful moments with a journalistic approach. I offer hybrid photography option, seamlessly blending digital and film throughout your special day. Film photography, to me, is pure magic, and I'm excited to share that enchantment with you and your partner.

I love what I do! I took my first photography class as a freshman in college and I never looked at the world the same way again. With a lifetime of experience, and a dedication to my art, my goal, whether shooting a wedding, family portrait or in the street, is to capture the special moments that evoke emotion and make memories as real as the day they happened. I would be honored to make those memories yours.

What excites me most as a photographer is finding ways to uniquely capture your story. My goal is to bring out the aspects of you that resonate most-- whether you find that in fun & laughter, or in quiet & stillness. I see myself more as a director than a photographer, always opting for prompts over poses. Through this, I find myself capturing stills that emanate movement and life-- the kind of thing you see in the movies.

As your wedding photographer, I take on more of a documentary approach and prefer to shoot with little interruption throughout your big day. Sure there will be times where posing is necessary, but for the most part, I know just how much planning and work and detail has gone into this celebration of the start of your marriage. I will be there for you to document the connection with you and your person with your genuine, honest emotions as the focus.
