How I photograph weddings with a Documentary Approach



If there's one thing to remember me by, its this:
​
I don't take myself too seriously, but I DO take your memories seriously - ESPECIALLY THE QUIET ONES.
How I see
I’ve always been someone who notices what’s happening just outside the main moment –– which is why documentary photography feels like home to me. The side conversations. The nervous fidgeting. The way someone reaches for another person without thinking about it. Weddings are full of these small exchanges that could be easy to miss, but they’re often the ones that end up meaning the most later. I think that’s why I’m drawn to photographing them — they feel honest, fleeting, and completely unrepeatable.​
What I Value
My core value is that I care more about presence than perfection. I believe deeply in my approach to a wedding day, but I also know I'm not meant for every couple — and that's okay. I'm here for the ones who value a wedding day that feels lived in, present, and true to them. My biggest hope is that you wake up the morning after your wedding already carrying the memories with you, because you were fully there for them as they happened. When the day pulls you in every direction or creates so much pressure to perform that you have to wait for the photos to understand what happened, I think we miss the heart of it.
How I Photograph
If you're still reading this, I must have pulled you in somewhere — and I'm glad you're here. So, how does all of this actually translate to your wedding photographs? It doesn't mean we throw out the key moments of the day or let chaos take over. It means we collaborate to create a plan that feels grounding instead of overwhelming — one that leaves room for you to be fully present while I quietly document what unfolds.
