This is not your traditional portraiture and event photography. This is art. My art.
My gift to you is everything I see when I immediately get to know you and the people you love. The way your partner looks at you while you’re talking to me. The little smile on your face when your babies laugh uncontrollably. The nervousness when I direct you and you don’t quite know what to do with your hands. (I’ll help you with that.) The deep breath you take in when you realize you will have these memories to keep forever. You and your favorite people.
Relax. Let me observe, direct a little, show you what I see through my lens. Just play and enjoy yourself. So you can keep these memories forever.
For a little background on my work, I began photographing weddings, couples, and families in 2007, my specialty and focus on New Orleans engagement photography. My work has brought me to Louisiana, New York, Tennessee, California, Florida, and lots of places in between and while the travel was invigorating, my favorite part of it all was the incredible people I’ve met and learning their stories. After a sweet few years living on the beach in Seagrove Beach, Florida, my family and I find ourselves back in Nashville which has been my home for a decade. With hundreds of photo sessions and dozens of weddings under my belt, I’m honoring my love of both film and digital photography and creating art for my clients in a way that feels truest to myself and that will speak to you in the deepest way possible. I’m so grateful that you are interested in my work and I hope to get to meet you someday soon.
