  • Trust me, almost every couple feels the same way! But don’t worry—I don’t do stiff, traditional posing.

With years of experience, I’ll make sure everything important is covered while keeping things relaxed and easy.

  • Having a second photographer is a fantastic way to ensure the full story of your wedding day is captured.
