Over the years, I've witnessed my life and my work evolve in beautiful synchrony. I've gone from the bustling streets of New York, where I assisted, produced, and managed studios, to the familiar embrace of the Bay Area. And here's the best part: my life and work have been evolving together, just like a well-rehearsed dance. Today, I'm all about those quiet authentic moments, the stolen glances, and those candid laughs. But what truly gets my heart racing is when the aesthetics blend effortlessly with your unique style, weaving a visual tale that's as modern as it is authentically you.

My work is all about balance—editorial yet organic, fashion-forward and modern yet genuine, relaxed yet sophisticated. With years of experience, I've cultivated a sense of calm and adaptability. I'm the invisible third wheel when you need me, the fly on the wall you forget is there, and the one who wants nothing more than for you to bask in the love that surrounds you.

Don't get me wrong; I adore the details and the posed photos—they're the product of my background in art and interior design. Quality has always been my mantra over quantity. But what truly ignites my passion is when the aesthetics seamlessly blend with your unique vibe, creating a visual narrative that is as Vogue-worthy as it is authentically you.

To me, your wedding day is more than just an event; it's a sweet, imperfectly perfect moment in your journey. It's not the start of a new chapter; it's the icing on your already beautiful cake, making your life even sweeter.

My work has taken me across the United States and to Europe. It's been in publications like Martha Stewart Weddings, Brides, 100 Layer Cake, Green Wedding Shoes, Domino, and more. But here's the real honor: when I see those framed photos in your home, I know I've done my job right.

In my free time, you'll likely find me redecorating a corner of my home with my latest vintage find (I'm currently swooning over my Eva Ackerman estate sale score), roaming the local farmers market, planning an off-the-beaten-path adventure, or grabbing my pup for the dog park or exploring new locations for great photos.

I know you're not looking for just any old wedding photographer.
You're after an experience that's as unique as your love story – something that doesn't follow the cookie-cutter Pinterest trends. Your wedding day is not about ticking off a list of shots; it's about celebrating the wild, wonderful journey that brought you two together.
