My approach as a wedding photographer

My approach to wedding photography is likely best described as fine art photojournalism. This means that the images I capture and the art I create is intimately connected to the relationship created between myself and the people I photograph. It’s impossible for me to spend good time with good people and not have space for them in my heart. I believe this plays a massive role in my ability to capture beautiful, authentic moments and to turn them into art for you. In short, if we end up working together we are going to become friends.

Having me with you on your wedding day

Together we create this comfortable, fearless space within which you can simply be with one another. You can be real, silly, ridiculous, intimate, passionate and fearless with one another and I will capture all of it. It’s within this space that my favorite images are born, captured and remembered.

It is likely that you will spend more time with your photographer on your wedding day than anyone other than the one you love most. I will be there with you and for you – as photographer, friend and ally as you walk into your new lives together. The experience of your photography will be as enjoyable and memorable as the images we create on your wedding day. Let’s make beautiful things together…

Being present with you

I’m grateful to say that I have been a wedding photographer in Santa Barbara for roughly 10 years. I have been very fortunate to foster strong and happy relationships with many of the best local professionals in the area. I’ve always found it a little difficult to accept compliments regarding my photography. I think is because my work is to capture and create beautiful images as a result of countless hours of event design, coordination and planning by all of my lovely colleagues. As a result, it ends up feeling as though I’m receiving some of the credit for the efforts of others and their work. With that in mind, it is the least I can do to capture every moment and every exquisite drop of beauty as is possible for both my clients as well as each of the professionals responsible for the weddings I photograph.
