My Approach
Pictures last a lifetime. It’s a cliche, I know, but long after you’ve returned the rented tuxedos, removed the centerpieces, and eaten the last of the cake — your wedding images will be what remain.
I capture the story of your wedding day so you can treasure it forever. My style is inpired by you.
Your wedding day is documented through recording unscripted moments and emotions. I enjoy capturing the intimacy of your wedding day while maintaining skilled composition and artistic elements in every image. I work as a storyteller and use an unobtrusive documentary-style approach to capture each joyful moment to every small detail. I am a quiet, low-profile professional and I allow events to occur naturally with intervention only as needed for the best possible photos. Don’t forget the pretty posed pictures either! We always plan time to get those fun, romantic images of you together, your wedding party, and close family and friends. I tailor our posed picture time to match your personality and style — plus keep I it fast moving so you never lose interest.
Ultimately, your wedding day photos document the intimate connections you share with those you love.
About Me
I have always had a passion for art. Many of my childhood memories are with a pencil or marker in hand. My grade school papers were always cluttered with rough sketches. I studied art in college and traveled to Florence and Paris to study the Renaissance and Impressionism. I spent much of my time oil painting up until I graduated. Fresh from college and looking to broaden my horizons, I purchased my first professional camera – and I was hooked. I said goodbye to my neglected paints and tucked my easel deep into the closest. I ventured into the world of photography and I have not looked back. My background in art plays an inseparable role in my photography. I think about the direction of light and shawdow, composition and so many other fundamental aspects of art as I compose a photograph. My imagery is rich, vibrant, and full of contrast – just like my oil paintings.
I arrived in Seattle seven years ago and now call it home. I currently live in Ballard with my husband and two dogs – but I’ve lived in most of Seattle’s neighborhood’s at one time or another. I enjoy new experiences and I love to travel.
