Your wedding day isn’t a photo shoot — it’s a living, breathing story. I know when to hang back and let the real magic unfold: the stolen glances, the unplanned tears, the wild dance floor chaos. And I know when to step in with just the right amount of guidance — the nudge into golden light, the reminder to take a breath, the quick fix before the moment slips away. It’s a rhythm, not a script. A balance between direction and freedom.

You get the best of both worlds: photos that look incredible, but more importantly, feel like you actually lived them.

so does every moment

Every track hits different — 

I’m a wedding + lifestyle photographer based in Raleigh, NC, forever chasing golden hours, grainy frames, and the kind of moments that don't need staging to be magic. I’ll follow love anywhere it takes me — down dirt roads, across oceans, or into the middle of a packed dance floor at midnight.

I'm not here to pose you into someone else's version of perfect. I’m here for the real — the wind in your hair, the hand squeezes, the blink-and-you-miss-it moments that make your story yours.

Think of me like the friend who shows up with a film camera, dances under the fairy lights, and sneaks you Polaroids before the night’s even over. Every frame is a track on your mixtape — imperfect, unfiltered, and exactly how it felt.

Because years from now, when the day feels far away, your photos will take you back. I’m here to make sure they’re worth the trip.

Meet your photographer,

your memory-keeper, hype girl, and unofficial time traveler. 

"I photograph love the way my grandparents  taught me to see it — messy, real, magic, and worth remembering forever."

I grew up surrounded by art — not just in frames, but in the way stories were kept. My grandpa’s camera was an extension of him, always ready before life slipped away. My grandma’s hands were always busy making — little sketches, handmade gifts, everyday beauty. They weren’t just making art; they were making time capsules. Now they’re gone, but their albums and worn-out prints still hum with their voices. I can hold a photo and feel them in the room. That’s the magic I’m chasing.



The MAGIC I'M CHASING 

When I shoot, I’m not after the “perfect” shot. I want the honest ones — the hand squeezes, the ugly cries, the laugh that tilts a head back. My grandparents taught me art is real when it’s lived-in. That’s what I give my couples: images that feel like them, that they’ll pull out decades later and still feel in their bones. Because the flowers wilt, the cake disappears, but the photos? They’re forever. Proof you were here. Proof you were loved.

Let's do this!
