Documentary, but make it dreamy

Documentary imagery doesn’t have to be dry or rigid — it can be fluid, natural, beautiful. When done right, it can convey wonder, beauty, and memory.

I started out documenting punk bands in basements 7 years ago, leading to a career in fashion, and now, I travel to document couples in love with the same photojournalistic eye. Couples who book me tend to believe in the purity of the moment, and don’t want anything over-staged.

My background in fashion lends me a specific eye for editorializing everyday moments and a greater understanding of how a gown should fall or a suit should fit. In addition to capturing the big feelings and dreamy moments, I’m always looking for the quiet, intimate, micro-interactions that happen on a wedding day, as they often go overlooked and are never to be seen again. The result is a moody blend of unstaged dream-like editorial and true documentary imagery. It becomes a story to last a lifetime.
