| Artist Statement |
True connection is about relationships. I believe that God creates us as highly relational beings. It is in real relationships that we open ourselves to laughter, tears, joy and sorrow. These emotions are what great imagery is all about. I take a limited number of weddings a year and my connection to my couples is of utmost importance. It is what enables me to enter their world in a way that allows me to be there when moments unfold. My goal is to make images that are more than photojournalistic. I aim to craft images that are timeless and classic - images that will be just as moving and impactful in the future as they are today. I consider myself to have a fine art approach to image capture. Each image I create strives to be more than just a memorable moment, but a stylized and graphic expression that still remains true to its organic origins.
This fine art sensibility runs true to every aspect of my wedding product: I believe in capturing images in-camera and excelling in the art of hand-processing each one, without relying on heavy post-production. My albums are handcrafted using premium materials, with each image hand-mounted on the page, bound and preserved to last a lifetime.
I believe your day is unique to you and I desire to capture it in a manner that is just as unique: your story, your memories, your work-of-art.
