memories to last a lifetime.
DETAILS & Experience
I continually search for timeless moments enveloped in draping light, raw emotion, and nostalgic warmth. In doing so, I create photographs that are honest, yet refined. My work has been described as being "just so" with meticulous planning and forethought for ARTISTIC COMPOSITION.
My philosophy is simple: "light above all else."
Coming from a classically trained product and branding photography background, I approach each photo session and wedding with an eye for detail. With a modern, editorial style that is elegant, timeless, and natural, I provide images to you that are custom to your love story.
I provide light guidance and creatively direct where needed to give moments the chance to organically unfold before the camera.

Engagement SESSIONS
Start at $750
Perhaps my favorite thing to capture, engagement sessions are a celebration of love and the season in which you are in before marriage. With two people bringing themselves together as one, your engagement session should absolutely reflect who you've become. One immediate tip I can give is to make your engagement session a symbol of you: whether that is shooting it at a location that means a lot to you or perhaps you are doing something that you love doing (such as getting coffee at your local haunt). All of my sessions include guidance on location, styling, and more.

PORTRAITS & FAMILY PHOTOS

Whether that's in the form of a family session, maternity session, bridal portraits, proposal, lifestyle, or you just want to create artistic images with me; I would love to capture it beautifully and authentically. All of my sessions include guidance on location, styling and more.

POST-WEDDING
"We’ll always remember our wedding day, but the pictures David got will be cherished for years to come. We felt lucky to genuinely get to know him when he took our engagement photos, and he made us feel comfortable right away. He was attentive on our wedding day and captured all of the moments that were special to us."
