I focus on capturing the genuine emotions and spontaneous moments that make your day truly special, while also creating beautifully composed images that reflect the timeless beauty of your wedding. I love working with natural light and pay close attention to details, ensuring that every photo feels authentic and personal to your love story.
One of my many goals as your photographer is to capture your wedding day in its ENTIRETY and give you photos that embody your celebration. This means that your photos are completely free and that there are no limits to the exact number of images you'll receive. However many images are great from your wedding is what will be included with your gallery.
Typically an 8 hour wedding can receive anywhere between 800-1500 photos.
A 2-3 hour engagement usually receives around 60-85 images.
I include a second photographer in all my collections and à la carte options to ensure comprehensive coverage of your wedding day. However, if your event doesn't require a second shooter, I can create a custom collection tailored to your needs.
For weddings, it's typically around 6-8 weeks after your date with a preview of the wedding within 72 hours.
For engagements, it is usually around 2-3 weeks after your session.
All images are delivered online in a private gallery and you'll be downloading the full-resolution images.
Absolutely! Every photo you receive is individually and personally hand-edited and color-corrected.
As far as you need me to! I have photographed weddings across several states in the US. They include Virginia, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. My bags are packed and ready to go!
