My mission at one time was to make the wedding as stress free as possible; not any more. I understand there is always going to be stress. I will photograph the day as it unfolds and tell the story. If the flowergirl refuses to throw her petals, and her father carries her tearfully down the aisle, I will be there to photograph it. My images will ultimately become a wedding album with an overall natural look and feel. I want the bridal couple to remember the day the way it was. I want them to smile at the happiness and laugh at the mistakes.

My portrait photography follows along the same lines with a natural design. I want to make each person or family look their best beginning with a clothing consultation and photographying where they are most comfortable, in studio, home, or beach settings.

I also enjoy senior photography which can be anything from whimsical, magazine fashion, to traditional.
