I'm absolutely obsessed with photography. I'm even more enthusiastic about photography in year 11 of my career than I was on day 1. The best part about photography is it has allowed me to make new friends and photograph their cherished life moments.

Your wedding day shouldn't be a series of arbitrary photo moments, "Say cheese!" You're counting on your new friend to share what is special about you and your love. I immerse myself in the preparation and execution of a photographic vision for your wedding day. It starts with the consultation process and ends with us spending an entire day together capturing timeless images.

I'm driven to make every wedding the best wedding I've ever photographed and to give you and your loved ones a guest experience that complements you're union. We're both after the same thing; an amazing photographic experience!

Where are you located? Do you charge a travel fee for weddings not in your location?

Located in Tucson, Arizona. Weddings in Phoenix do not incur a travel or room fee. Travel and room must be accommodated for out of state weddings.

How long have you been in business? How many weddings have you photographed as the main photographer?

3 years. Over 100 weddings.

Describe your "style" of wedding photography.

My style is more dramatic. I follow closely our trends in wedding photography, and I do my best not to shoot those trends. I'm not a victim to poor light and I bring the proper tools on the wedding day to light the entire wedding if the situation calls for it. We shouldn't be committed to one type of look. Most couples probably don't imagine themselves in these grand and dramatically lit images, so we start with natural light and warm you up for a style of photo that will knock your socks off!

What's the typical wedding coverage package that you offer? What is the price?

I have a day rate of photography with 2 photographer coverage and a printable images up to 8x12 inches for $3000. Above that, I have packages that include albums and canvas prints.

Do you have a studio where we can meet in-person?

We can meet at Aloft Hotel Lobby here in Tucson, or we can Skype, Google Hangouts, or FaceTime.

What are your professional degrees, credentials, affiliations? Have you taken any recent educational workshops or classes?

I'm a WPPI and PPA member. I'm a 2016 "Best of" award winner with The Knot and a 2016 "Best of" award winner with MyWedding on the local and state level. I've been published in June Bug Weddings.

Is there anything else you'd like to share about yourself?

I am CRAZY about photographing compelling original images on your wedding day. If you work with me on your schedule and let me do all the heavy lifting, we're going to capture images that will make you the envy of all your recently wed friends and your future children say "Mom and Dad were a couple of bad asses!" We're both after premiere photography experience.

We're going to have a blast on your wedding day. I'm fast, friendly, and on top of it. The results are in the images we photograph, but the experience is in how I handle your kooky wedding party members and your crazy aunt who insists her Maltese + Bichon Frise puppy is a part of your family photos (it isn't).

Let's do this!!!
