I truly believe that the most important part of your wedding day is that you end up married, because all the details and events fly by. As a wedding photographer in Southern California, I've photographed well over 150 weddings and elopements, and every single one goes by so quickly. I love my job because even though the day passes in a flash, I get to capture those teeny tiny moments so they can be relived over and over in photographs. Some of my photos are 1/1000 of a second, meaning you can fit 1000 photos into one second of your day, which is crazy and amazing. That's why wedding photography is the most important investment of your wedding day. The cake will be eaten, and your dress will likely be put away somewhere, but photographs freeze moments in time, and that's not to be taken lightly.

My clients often describe me as "easy-going," and I think that's pretty accurate! Weddings are stressful enough without your photographer making it harder. With 9 years of wedding photography experience in Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, Paso Robles, Ventura County, and beyond- I've got it covered. I've seen my fair share of unique weddings, like brides riding in on camels. I am in my element as a documentary photographer- wandering around as a fly on the wall, capturing details, emotions, and candid photos, as well as helping my couples feel comfortable and enjoy their day!

Since I lean towards documentary and candid photography, I am not your girl for an entire Vogue-styled photoshoot. I keep my clients comfortable and true to themselves while stepping in to assist when needed. You'll find me wandering around your wedding reception eating cake and clicking away, guaranteed. My style is to place you in beautiful settings and let your natural love and feelings shine through. We will do a few posed photos (mainly family, which is always a circus) but what I love most about weddings is capturing the natural flow and actual events of the day, rather than crafting an image or overly editing.

On the note of editing, I prefer natural and warm colors that still reflect real life. There is a lot of trendy photography out there, and while it can be interesting, it may start to look dated over time. I want my images to be timeless in their color and style, while still evoking warm, fuzzy, and nostalgic memories from your event. I do not offer extensive body Photoshopping or unrealistic editing.
