On Weddings. I’m drawn to celebrations that challenge convention and leave me permission to play and shoot with my gut but I still believe in honoring the tradition of ritual that is weddings. I love working weddings shaped by big imagination— showcasing your personalities and high strangeness. Guest count and extravagance are irrelevant; a backyard ceremony with twenty guests who care deeply about one another will piqué the same curiosity and reverence in my practice as the ballrooms of 250 people I photograph. My hope is that the couples who find me value artistry first and foremost; the common thread being that you trust the way I will see your day and feel comfortable letting go so that you can be present with your people and each other.
On Life. I love my animals and your animals and all animals (bugs too), meteorology, reading thriller + science fiction novels, train rides, playing Stardew Valley (daily just so you know), dabbling in chess, photographing strangers, Kraft mac’n’cheese, people watching around the city, writing music, nights spent in with my life partner of almost 16 years, bird watching.
My first and favorite photo muse, my biggest fan. August 2, 1946 — May 16, 2026.
