Wedding & Elopement Photography
Capturing feelings & moments
My approach is fun, relaxed and informal, I like to keep things authentic, and take candid documentary style. Capturing the events as they unfold, catching all the smiles, tears or joy and all the real emotions!
Forget the cookie-cutter weddings. I’m here for the rule-breakers, the romantics, the wild ones, and the ones rewriting traditions. Alternative, LGBTQ, nerdy, geeky, festival-style, or beautifully untraditional—I’ll capture your day exactly as it feels.
Candid Photographs
I believe that weddings should be captured in the moment, not acted out or posed. I’m always there, happy to give some subtle suggestions when needed for the shoots, avoiding cringy and awkward posing, or anything that might make You feel uncomfortable.
For all the camery shy folk – I know it can be hard being on that side on the lens, I get it – hey I’m hiding behind the other side of the lens all the time!
I’m always trying to create a great environment, have a chat and a lough, and get shootin’ !
As a photographer, I focus on capturing the true essence of you and your wedding — without conforming to traditions, fleeting trends, or expectations.”
I may not conform to traditions — but that doesn’t mean I don’t love them. If your wedding follows a classic path, I’ll capture it with the same honesty, energy, and emotion. The formalities, the rituals, the timeless moments — all photographed in a way that still feels real and true to you.
Covering the whole day
☀️ Early mornig to 🌖 late evening
Me ? I’m not dissapearing after the first dance! It doesn’t seem like a full day coverage if the photos stop when You and all the guest are having the most fun!
So You won’t miss the memories of You and Your evening guests rocking out on the dance floor.
The best wedding photos happen when You’re having the most fun!
Elopements & Destinations
For the wild hearts
Are You eloping, or getting married far far away?
I love adventure, and will happily travel anywhere,
to capture Your special Day!
