"A THING THAT YOU SEE IN MY PICTURES IS THAT I WAS NOT AFRAID TO FALL IN LOVE WITH THESE PEOPLE."

story of a photographer
I realized how much I enjoyed taking pictures throughout my high school years. Documenting each event through my point and shoot camera really created the foundation in becoming a professional photographer. As I sit back and reflect… I remember begging my mom to buy me disposable cameras for the school field trips dating back to elementary school. I truly love photo journalistic images which show the most intimate moments in life. I want my clients to feel the same way I feel when I am being taken back in time, filled with a particular memory and emotion by just looking at a picture or through photo albums. With this, I feel like It’s my job and my privilege to capture those sublime moments so you can cherish them forever.
In 2009, I bought my first Nikon DSLR Camera, on the of the toughest decisions I have ever had to make. Nikon or Cannon (lol) and of course I went with Nikon. Celebrating my 15 year anniversary, I can really look back at my journey and say that all these weddings and people have helped shape the person and wedding photographer I am today.
As I reflect on my life, I’d like to be remembered as someone whose creative vision brought joy to others. And that I lived my life with grace. And with laughter. And I’m most grateful to those people who chose me to short in their joy as I provide contribution that is real and lasting. If you hire me as your photographer, I promise to deliver amazing images that will live in your family for untold generations changes.

My brother died when I was 5 years old and although this seems young age to remember, I recollect the day it happened to a t! Dealing with grief at such a very young age, I was always able to keep him near with the photographs my mom always took of us. I remember feeling really alone one day and I put up all the pictures we had together and just laid there with him in spirit. Little did I know that this piece of comfort ignited a fire in me that has fueld my passion in photography throughout my entire life.
I walked around with all types of cameras throughout my school years; unconsciously, I documented everything! From using my moms film camera, to begging her to buy me disposables cameras for every function and event my school(s) had. Then I transitioned from disposable cameras for school to the new digital cameras to document my social and club life. Now, those have been swapped out for documenting real life events to shooting with a DLSR.
The joy I feel when people look at their images on my camera like “WOW, that’s me!” is such an unmeasurable feeling of fulfillment. I will never forget my clients thanking me for capturing a picture of their mom smiling during her wedding reception because she never smiles. And another client looking back to a photograph of her and her dad dancing, remembering how lucid he was at that moment since he suffered for Alzheimer’s disease. This was the same nostalgic feeling I had looking back at all my photos and my driving force today for all my clients to experience.
