THIS is the reason why I do this job. I photographed Bianca & Mark’s wedding last September, and when I got the message that they’re expecting their first baby, I cried!! How special is it that I get to see people through multiple once in a lifetime moments? I love love 🫶🏻

My work lives in the space between editorial and documentary. Here’s what that means:

I guide you into poses that feel comfortable and real, keeping composition top of mind, to create the kind of images that feel polished and purposeful, but never stiff. The most beautiful moments don’t come from those perfect poses or compositions. They come from what happens after.

A pose turns into a giggle. A direction turns into a moment of connection. And suddenly you’re there, no longer just in front of the camera. You’re laughing, you’re flirting, you’re enjoying being present together, and I’m just capturing it. I guide you toward the vibe, and you create it.

If that’s the kind of photography experience you’re looking for in a 2027 wedding, my books are open — link in bio 🤍

These two knew exactly what they wanted: a simple vow ceremony at an iconic Milwaukee location with just the two of them, their parents, and a friend doubling as an officiant. 🤍

Jon & Caroline got married in Hollywood house party style. Vintage venue, stunning attire, and more guests crying at the vows than I’ve ever seen at a wedding. When two people care about each other that much, you just feel it. And everyone in that room did.

Some weddings days you can’t top, and this was one of them.
