You don’t need another photographer who just shows up and runs through a shot list. You need someone who sees you. Who gets why this day—this specific, unrepeatable day—matters. Someone who will step into your world and document it the way it feels, not just how it looks.
That’s what I do.
I don’t do stiff poses or force moments that don’t belong. Instead, I watch, listen, and move with you—capturing the way your partner pulls you closer during the last song, the way your mom smooths the fabric of your dress with quiet hands, the way your best friend leans in, eyes shining, as you laugh at a story you’ve heard a hundred times before.
The best wedding photos don’t come from a formula. They come from trust. From letting go. From being fully in it. That’s where the magic is.
“The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.” — Andy Warhol
01
A Mix of Documentary and Editorial
This isn’t about choosing between a collection of stiff, posed portraits or a pile of grainy candids. It’s about balance. I shoot with a blend of documentary and editorial styles—meaning I’ll capture the unfiltered, in-between moments as they unfold, but I also know when to step in, guide you, and make sure you look and feel your absolute best. It’s movement, it’s storytelling, it’s the way your day felt—all wrapped into a visual legacy that won’t just sit on a hard drive, but live on your walls and in your hands for years to come.
02
An Experience, Not Just a Service
You’re not just booking a photographer—you’re trusting someone to preserve one of the biggest days of your life. That’s not something I take lightly. From the first time we talk to the moment you hold your wedding gallery in your hands, I’ll be in your corner. Helping you plan, making sure you feel comfortable, and ensuring that every image reflects you. It’s not about trends, it’s not about what everyone else is doing—it’s about crafting something honest, meaningful, and uniquely yours.

A Commitment to Making You Feel Safe, Comfortable, and Unshakably You
Being in front of a camera can feel vulnerable. I get that. But this experience isn’t about performing—it’s about existing, fully and freely, while I document the way you love. Whether you’re tearing it up on the dance floor or stealinga quiet moment just the two of you, I’ll be there, making sure you feel safe, seen, and celebrated. No forced smiles, no awkward posing—just you, exactly as you are.
Based in Texas, Traveling Wherever Your Story Takes Me
Frequently documenting love in Texas, Arizona, North Carolina, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and California—but always ready to go wherever feels like home to you.
Wedding photography is more than just showing up with a camera. It’s about crafting an experience that fits you—your people, your moments, your day. Coverage typically falls between 5k-11k, with options ranging from intimate elopements to full wedding weekends.
I like to keep things easy—let’s hop on a quick call, talk through what matters most to you, and create a custom photography plan that fits exactly what you need.
Reach out, and let’s make something unforgettable.
How do you handle low-light situations?
I am equipped with professional-grade cameras and lighting equipment to handle various lighting conditions, ensuring high-quality photos even in low-light situations such as evening receptions.
What packages do you offer?
I offer a variety of packages tailored to meet different needs and budgets. Each package includes a pre-wedding consultation, a set number of hours of coverage, edited digital images, and an online gallery. For detailed pricing and package options, please inquire.
How far in advance should we book you?
It’s best to book as early as possible, as dates can fill up quickly, especially during peak wedding seasons. I recommend booking at least 6-12 months in advance to ensure availability
What if we are awkward in front of the camera?
totally understand how you feel! Almost all of my past couples have felt the same way before their engagement session or wedding day. But once we meet in person, they always tell me how much fun they’ve had! We’ll engage in enjoyable activities with lots of movement to capture those genuinely candid, true-to-you moments.
What locations do you cover for photography sessions?
While based in East Texas and Dallas, I also capture stories worldwide. Travel arrangements and costs for sessions outside the local area can be discussed during booking.
