My approach is rooted in personal, creative, lyrical documentary and portrait photography. It’s all about making beautiful pictures. I personalize each couple’s experience to directly suit their needs and interests. Documenting weddings is about creatively capturing the excitement, the joy and the moments that surprise us. I have a comfortable and discrete approach that’s balanced by a visually bold, fun style that uniquely captures the story, the beauty and the emotions of this first chapter of a new family history. Although I focus on weddings, I shoot anything, anywhere, anytime. See here.

As an internationally recognized award-winning photojournalist and wedding photographer, I bring 20 years of experience documenting important, can’t miss moments. In addition to photographing many weddings, I have worked and continue to work on assignment for U.S. newspapers and magazines including National Geographic, The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg News, and The Boston Globe.

Some of the known include Chris Rock, Heath Ledger, Clay Aiken, President Bill Clinton, Both President Bushes, Yassir Arafat, Martha Stewart, Jesse Jackson, B. Smith, Genevive Gorder, Celebrity Chef and Personality Andrew Zimmern, Artist Karen Finley, Author Dennis Lehane, New York’s Fashion Week, 7 Duke vs. UNC basketball matchups, 3 NCAA Basketball Final Fours and many more.
