My photography journey began with the desire to capture unforgettable moments.
On my first trip to Europe, I bought a top-tier Canon camera, studied its manual on the flight, and spent two months photographing Ireland, France, Germany, and Belgium—an experience that taught me the power of composition and detail.
That passion led to art shows, retail prints, and annual returns to Ireland. Then came my first wedding shoot, where I approached it as if it were my own daughter's—over 1,200 weddings later, I still bring the same dedication. My work continues to evolve, but my goal remains the same: deliver the best results with minimal stress for everyone involved.
I prefer staying behind the camera rather than in front of it, so I completely understand those who don’t enjoy having their picture taken. This perspective allows me to create a comfortable environment for everyone. I work quickly and efficiently while ensuring no one feels awkward or uneasy.
My passion for travel and nationwide work has honed my ability to manage complex logistics, equipment, and teams seamlessly. I have received White House and Capitol clearance, have worked with high-profile clients under NDAs, and have extensive 501(c)(3) volunteer experience with the Marfan Foundation, traveling as needed.
Life is good! Whether I’m bouncing between Nashville or Cape May, I have my love of good coffee, a couple of cats to keep me company, and my wonderful girlfriend who keeps me focused. I’m looking forward to trips to Paris, Australia, Disneyworld, and wherever someone needs my camera to point.
Hope to meet you soon!
Life isn't perfect but I love every second.
My grand adventure began many years ago when I received a Little yellow box with a Kodak camera inside. The feel of the camera and the scent of the film had me intrigued.

Growing up I always loved taking pictures, being dubbed the family’s photographer around 10 years old to walk around and “make sure to get everyone’s picture!” every year at family parties. Soon, I was off to college, spending countless hours in the darkroom & computer lab editing photos: to say photography has been a huge part of my life would be an understatement. I love capturing natural, fun, and candid moments that tell a story- whether it’s a groom looking at his soon-to-be wife walk down the aisle or the look an older brother has as he’s holding his new little sister. Fleeting, sweet moments are the best ones to capture.
