Hey friends, it’s been a while since I’ve posted.

While the world keeps turning upside down, I’m still out here doing my best, photographing weddings and staying close to what I love.

But this post is a little different—this was my first time in front of the camera.
Big thanks to Khalid for stepping up and making me feel so comfortable. It was such a weird and beautiful feeling being on the other side. I honestly loved it, and I hope to do it more often.

Just wanted to stop by and say hi 👋
I’m planning to post more—even if this app only seems to care about video. I’m still gonna share photos, because I love this medium, and I love all of you who are brave enough to step in front of my lens. ❤️

Today I’m feeling extra thankful for my best buddy, Roy. He was with me for almost 15 years.

Last week, I had to make one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever faced, and it still hurts.

Roy, thanks for all the memories—chasing balls, exploring the outdoors, and just being with me.

To everyone, don’t take your loved ones for granted. Enjoy them while you can.

I can’t get enough of these guys!
Anna and Michael are couples that make me love what I do.

These frames are made from a camera that my dear friend lent me for a time, a beautiful medium format film camera. And funny enough that the film I use was expired and had problems if you look very closely, you can see some spots made by the incorrect storage.

Nevertheless, I was once told by the photographer whom I admire that these mistakes and imperfections with the film are what make it beautiful.
I will print some photos in my dark room and share the results.

I can't believe how much fun we had last weekend at the welcome party for Paxton and Kristopher's wedding.
The Women’s Athletic Club is such an outstanding piece of history. I can't believe it’s from the 1800s.

I’m just amazed at this setup for Kalisa and Shawn’s micro wedding at an apartment in Gold Coast.
With only close family and the ones who matter, it reminded me of when I got married.
Sean and I have been friends for a couple of years, met in the wedding industry, and I appreciate him.
So when he called me up for being part of this moment, it was like I was honored.

Emily and Jonathan’s vibes are for the win!!!
This was my last wedding of the year 23’

This was a challenging year filled with ups and downs! But OMG, we finish strong with these two!

They are such a fantastic couple, and you bet that Jonathan could not stop smiling at Emily since the first look at the beautiful . After our photo shoot, our WP Myrna from kept us on track, and we made our way to church.
After these two said their vows, and finally got married in front of their whole family. We head out to continue the party and celebration to the .arbory .

I can only thank everyone who made it in front of my camera this 2023 and let me capture their special day.

I just wanted to give a quick shout-out about our recent vendor pow-wow with , which went down last week at . Now that was a chat to remember, folks! Surrounded by a league of extraordinary industry talents with heaps of experience, we chewed the fat on our experiences. We tossed around some natural practical tips for anyone to put into play in their businesses. We're all in it to win it for our couples, from the 'yes' to the 'I do' and beyond.

A shared hurdle we faced was wrangling a timeline and getting all the vendors on the same page so that everything would go off without a hitch at the event.

Our most significant piece of advice? Make sure you're communicating with your vendors and they're communicating with each other before and on the big day. And here's where an experienced Wedding Planner and Day Coordinator can swoop in like a superhero!

Big props to everyone who turned up, and here's hoping that our wisdom helps us all up our game in this sensational world of weddings.

Sharing an extra-special sneak peek from Casey and Jeremiah's wedding at the stunning Gwen Hotel, Chicago. 🐾 Their four-legged best friend joined in the celebrations, proving that love truly is a family affair. Remember, weddings are about union, and our loved ones - on two legs or four - make these moments priceless📸

The amount of images that I want to share with you guys is insane. Alex and John are the couples that make you believe in love, making me remember why I do what I do.
These two have the biggest heart. I am so grateful to be part of this little snippet of their lives.
The energy they bring to the room is something out of this world.
Later on, I will upload to the blog and share with you a more extended version of this. Meanwhile, let’s raise a toast to love in all its forms. Because

Apologies for the delay, but Father's Day was spent creating memories with my dad. Today, I want to share a touching 'first look' from Katie's wedding. The first time her father saw her as a bride, just before they walked down the aisle. A tribute to all the incredible dads, though a day late, it's a sentiment that's always timely.
