As a student many years ago, I wanted to make ART, and not shoot weddings. Now I appreciate weddings as much as anything I ever photograph. Here’s why: You and your beloved are in love. You’re preparing an ultimate experience, with your closest family and dearest friends. Together, you and your community will proclaim LOVE, and make a promise to grow together through the ages. It’s all-on, all-in profound, with everyone striving to be their best, in every way. ~ To be a part of that is humbling for me. It challenges me professionally (a wedding is hard work) and inspires me personally. I like to think that after a wedding, I’m a little more thoughtful as a husband and a father. Weddings have that power. They give us all perspective.

My style with weddings is largely documentary. I take a great many photos of the interactions of the people present, the smiles and hugs, the dance of joy, the good food and drink, and all the beauty of the place. To that we add your shot list — all the posed photos you think we might need, and plan accordingly. When the day comes I help your wedding to run smoothly by doing my part, while supporting you in having the best day of your life. A week later you have your hundreds of finished photos, perhaps even ART(!) And you love the photos that tell the story of your day and your love.
