How I Work

Before photography, my creative outlet and love was theatre. Through countless hours both on the stage and directing others, I learned how important empathy, encouragement, and positivity are to ensuring people can shine through the nerves and vulnerability of being on stage. I bring this same approach to my sessions, because if you're anything like me, standing in front of the camera is just as (if not more) nerve-wracking as standing on stage in front of a crowd. Sweaty palms, fluttery tummy, the works.

You're safe to shine here!


During our session, we'll connect on pets, wedding-planning learnings (always jazzed to share tricks and tips my wife & I learned when planning), current hyper-fixations, weekend plans, favorite ice cream spots (need to make sure I'm not missing any), favorite drag queens, and anything else that may light your fire. We'll have fun and connect, which will help me to understand and encourage you, so those camera nerves can melt away and authentic, joyful, happy YOU can shine!

Who's A Great Fit

Nothing makes my heart sing like working with couples who see the best in each other. Couples who have a healthy obsession with each other, can't wait to sneak a smooch between shots, and make each other laugh on the reg are totally my people.

Have those same vibes in your family? Amazing! In addition to working with couples, I love working with young families. Honestly, I'm a kid at heart and will be best buds with your kiddos in no time.
