The Experience

Unhurried. Intentional. Yours.

A wedding day moves fast. My job is to stay out of the way, keep things moving without anyone feeling managed, and hand you back pictures you will still want on the wall in thirty years.

01. Before

We Plan Together

From our first conversation, I'm a resource: timeline building, light planning, venue walk-throughs, family photo choreography. By the wedding day, I'm not a vendor; I'm a familiar face.

02. The Day

Present, Not Posed

I direct when it helps and disappear when it matters. The images that make you cry in ten years are rarely the posed ones. My job is to be standing in the right place when real life happens.

03. After

Heirlooms, Delivered

A cinematic preview within days, the full gallery within weeks, every image hand-finished. Albums and fine-art prints made to be handed down, not stored on a hard drive.

The Investment

Collections begin at $8,500

Eight hours of coverage, a second photographer, hand-editing of every final image, and a private gallery of high-resolution files. From there couples add what their day calls for: more hours, an heirloom album, an engagement session.

Questions

Good Things to Know

Do you travel?

Yes. I am based in Orange County and shoot up and down the California coast, and anywhere a couple wants to be married. Travel is quoted with the proposal so there are no surprises.

When do we see our photos?

A preview within days, the full gallery within weeks. Every image is finished by hand before you see it.

How do we book?

Send your date and venue through the contact page. I answer everything myself, usually within a business day.
