I’ll begin by saying I love what I do. One might call it a job but it is a blessing to do what you love.
It started 8 years ago and I’ve never looked back. I am often asked, “are weddings all the same?” The answer is no. If they were I wouldn’t be doing this. Each wedding is unique, from the pressures of the day, the couple getting married and their guests, to the location, weather and lighting.
For me, wedding photography is about creating beautifully framed moments in a natural and spontaneous photo journalistic style.
