our wedding day, vik iceland
It’s usually the small things that get me.
A grocery store parking lot at golden hour, or an early morning walk when the world is still half-asleep...
There’s something about the way light lands on this wild, ordinary earth that has always stopped me in my tracks and it’s the reason I fell in love with fine art and photography in the first place.
My wonderful parents raised my sisters and me on adventures,
long drives, muddy shoes, the kind of independence that makes you pay attention to the world. Somewhere along the way, I realized I didn’t just want to live those memories, I wanted to hold onto them. A photograph can hand you back a moment you’d otherwise lose: the way the light fell, the way someone laughed before you even said “smile.”

Some thoughts:
You deserve to feel
comfortable being yourself
I want you to feel your absolute best when you’re in front of my camera, whatever that looks like for you.
I will not prompt you in a way that does not feel true to you
Whatever your gender, religion, sexual orientation, ability, body size, or race, you are welcome in front of my lens, and I want you to have classic, meaningful photos that celebrate your life.
All you have to do is to show up, exactly as you are
The sleepless nights, the messy kitchen, and the toys strewn around the living room are part of this whole thing.

about me:
My love story took me completely by surprise. My wife and I met in college and could tell from the crazy electricity between us that we were gonna be together for good. We were long distance for four years, and it wasn’t always easy. But of course, it was worth it. She was and is the best person ever.
Looking at old photographs makes me love what I do. Sitting at the kitchen table, pulling out shoe boxes of photos, and talking about the memories is simply the best. I hope that some of the photographs I have made will be printed, looked at, and cherished for decades to come. Most of all, I hope they’ll mean something extra special to you.
