Decided it was time for a little site refresh ✨ I had a blast pulling some of my favorite images and curating a snapshot of what I love the most. Tremendous thanks to all my couples and my incredibly talented colleagues who produce some of the most beautiful and meaningful events! I’m in awe of the places and stories and people I get to capture with my camera. 🥂

I’m still taking in all that was this most recent because it was such a special one. Somewhere between conversations with old friends, new ideas shared over dinner, and quiet moments looking out over the sea, I found myself thinking about how grateful I am for this industry. Like REALLY, really grateful I have the opportunity to do what I do.

After more than a decade of doing this work, that feeling is stronger than ever.

Yes, we had (a lot!) of fun, but what I love most about this community is that the fun always sits alongside intention. We spent time talking about how to elevate the experiences we create for our clients, how we collaborate better, and how we continue raising the bar together.

Travel has always been one of my greatest joys…right alongside my little family and being a photographer. And if there’s water involved, I will choose the sea 10 out of 10 times. So to spend this Engage surrounded by this community and the ocean… it was something unlike any Engage!

Feeling incredibly grateful to do what I do, with people who care so deeply about doing it well. Here’s a fun little recap and some photos of me in front of the camera merging my passions together! Massive thanks to all the teams involved, but especially to and for making this one happen and the photo team who captured our time so well!

… but make it a yacht 🛥️ I had the pleasure of spending the week with the BEST company getting inspired, having thought provoking discussion about the pursuit of excellence and some fun in the sun. The St. Barths shopping and epic dance parties weren’t too shabby either 😉

As always, it takes an incredible village to make it happen, but I want to offer a special thanks to the photo team who captured all this amazing and diverse imagery .sencur and for taking an amazing risk on creating an Engage! so very different and special. And to the for hosting our group so well. I am beyond grateful and it’s so wonderful to be kicking off the earlier part of the year with such a bang.

I remember when I first started as a wedding photographer, so much of my focus was on making everything look pristine, perfect, and carefully curated. Since then, the industry has changed… and so have I!

What I’ve learned over a decade in this space is that what inspires me most are the moments that make a wedding gallery feel alive. Weddings are inherently beautiful, and while you’ll always catch me overshooting the decor (especially flowers — I truly can’t get enough), the real magic lives in images like these.

The heartfelt hug between a mother and daughter, fully taking in a moment they’ve spent a year dreaming about. The joy of the after party, keeping the best day ever going and going. Lifelong friends traveling from near and far to laugh, celebrate, and bear witness. Toasts that move a room to tears. Vows spoken both privately and publicly, carrying a lifetime of meaning.

There’s a reason I’m more in love with this role now than ever before. This is life at its most beautiful. And it’s such an honor to step into these worlds and preserve it.

Some fabulous film frames from Alexa and Matt’s wedding day! I love shooting film for the incredible dimension it provides alongside my clean digital imagery. It’s often times imperfect, sometimes a little surprising, but always full of amazing moments. For everyone who appreciates film - thank you. This collection of frames is a perfect example of why I do!
