I've had a camera in my hand for over a decade, but have been filming weddings in earnest since 2019. I am so lucky to have videos of both my parents and grandparents' weddings, and I get chills from watching time preserved in moving color. Those videos are a GIFT to me, and reminds me of my why: providing an heirloom to couples as they grow a new branch of the family tree.


























I've had the honor of capturing love against all kinds of backdrops; from the emerald-soaked nature scenes like the Chautauqua Mountains, and Millennium Park in Chicago, to vintage and architectural beauties like the Cleveland Museum of Art, Longue Vue Club in Pittsburgh, and the Van Dusen Mansion in Minneapolis.




















I spent my childhood summers traveling to Colorado, where I first fell in love with mountains, and it's where I believe I do my best work.
You can catch me with a sweet tea in hand, and I also am a vocalist in an acapella group. I continue to hone my love of music through selection of your backing score and allow it to influence my pacing in editing.










The wedding industry- and my approach- has changed so much in the past 6 years. While under another company, I absorbed their ideology that quantity and scale was paramount, but wasn't too long before I realized that performative, content-above experience mentality was hollow and unfulfilling.


So here's some promises I make to you.

💫I promise to cultivate a trusting, authentic atmosphere where you can feel fully yourself. 

💫 I will help pose you if you're nervous in front of the camera, and be mindful of your flyaways! 

💫 I will make sure you stay hydrated, and be your biggest fan! 

💫 I will encourage you to feel alllll the feelings, and remind you to stay focused on your sweetheart. That's why we're here!
