Documentary Meets Refinement

Your wedding is your own — shaped by what feels meaningful to you.

I photograph with a balance of documentary awareness and refined composition — preserving real moments as they unfold while creating portraits that feel natural and intentional.

Your day will move in its own rhythm — and I’ll move with it. I guide when it helps, and disappear when the moment doesn’t need me.

Travel & Collaboration

Based in the Hudson Valley and working frequently throughout New York City, Westchester, Connecticut, and destination locations, I collaborate closely with planners and creative partners to ensure the day flows smoothly and the visual details are thoughtfully preserved. Travel is quoted individually.

Coverage Philosophy

I cover your full day — from the quiet getting-ready moments all the way through the last dance — so the whole story gets told.

Image Quantity

Most couples receive several hundred images — carefully edited, cohesive, and telling the full story of your day.

A Focused Approach

I photograph a limited number of weddings each year so that each couple receives my full creative focus and attention.

If this feels like the right fit, I’d genuinely love to hear about your plans.

What’s Included With Every Wedding

Every wedding experience is designed with care, structure, and intention — so you can feel supported without ever feeling managed.

Complete Photography Coverage

Your wedding is photographed using professional digital systems chosen for reliability, tonal depth, and clarity. Every frame is handled with attention to light, movement, and nuance.

Unlimited Consultations & Timeline Planning

From the moment you book, we work together to shape a timeline that protects what matters — unhurried space, meaningful interactions, and room for moments to unfold naturally. A well-designed day creates better photographs and a better experience.

High-Resolution Online Gallery

Your images are delivered in a private, high-resolution gallery for downloading and printing. The gallery is thoughtfully edited and cohesive, designed to feel like a complete narrative rather than a collection of files.

Delivery Within 35 Business Days

Your gallery arrives within 35 business days — edited, consistent, and ready while the memory of the day is still vivid.

Digital & Film Options

Weddings are photographed primarily in digital format, with film available as an intentional addition for couples drawn to its texture and tonal quality.

Heirloom Albums

Your photographs are meant to be held, flipped through, and lived with — not buried on a hard drive..

Wedding days move quickly. Photographs remain.

I offer handcrafted heirloom albums made in the United States using archival materials and traditional binding methods. Each album is custom designed and built to endure — something that will be opened on anniversaries and passed forward long after digital formats evolve.

An album is not an accessory to the work.

It is its final form.

Investment

Wedding collections begin at $6,800.
