SHOOTING DIGITAL AND ANALOG FILM FOR COUPLES, BRANDS, & LIFESTYLES SINCE 2014

Based in Phoenix, Arizona; Available (and excited) for travel opportunities, I'm passionate about mixing analog 35mm film with digital mediums in every gallery.

 

My dream clients are looking for eclectic galleries that showcases the many unique facets of their personalities, from "Vogue" editorial, to candid, lived-in, and fly-on-the-wall photos.

THE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER FOR THE COUPLE THAT DOESN’T WANT A “WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER”.

When it comes to my art, I'm only after timeless, anti-cliche, and authentic story-telling. In 2014, I started studying photojournalism, graphic design, and listening to the needs and visions of my clients. Take it from someone who's entered the "wedding world" by accident, I have no other agenda than to capture your story the way you really lived it. My entire professional background aside from photo and film has been in "Client Success Management" which is a fancy title for "caring about my client's experience!"

 

I offer a mixture of editing styles and techniques that you can customize, along with a photojournalist, documentary approach to create genuine images that stand the test of time. That way, when you look back in 10, 20, even 50 years, you'll know it was real, and the images are truly timeless.

Inspired by deep human connection, architecture, traveling, love letters, and film photography. Colors of nature, the ocean, 90's romantic comedies, soft morning light. Sentimental moments, random acts of kindness, bike rides on the coastline. 

storytelling for the romantic hearts

Intimate wedding photographer based in Utah and traveling worldwide. Capturing the most meaningful moments of life and turning them into art. I’m so happy you found your way here and are showing interest in my art. My style is all things timeless and romantic. I love getting to know & work with with couples that are light hearted, easy going and super in love. If this sounds like you, let's connect! My job is to document your day as it unfolds, not turn your day into a big shot list. Your wedding is about YOU, which is why you should have time to just be - connecting with friends and family, and each other. Your happiness, ease, and ability to enjoy every second of the best day of your lives is so important to me. And your wedding photos will encompass each and every moment of the experience all while being captured in a beautiful way
