Thank you so much for visiting this site, this is a window into my photographic world of weddings and I welcome you!! As a documentary photographer and photojournalist, it is my job to be an observer and a storyteller. It is my passion however for the human condition, emotions, relationships, LOVE, that draws me to photograph weddings.

On your wedding day you might catch a glimpse of my slipping in and out of scenes and moments but most likely you won’t see the tears that well up in my eyes, or the laughter that blends in with your loved ones’, or even the beat of your DJ or bands’ music that I’m moving to while I shoot. It’s all there though, and all those elements enable to me to put myself into your shoes and capture the day as you experience it, with LOVE. Even as I write this I’m feeling the very same sensation I get when I know ‘I got the shot’.

The secret to capturing moments is compassion. Anyone can pick up a camera and learn how to use it. I’ve been making photographs since I was a teenager, but it was only when I really learned my personal strengths through my documentary work, educational projects and my first weddings, that I realized where the gift that I can give really lies.

The greatest joy received when images are delivered is hearing the words ‘when I look at these I can feel how I felt on my wedding day’.

This is why I photograph weddings and this is why I want to photograph yours.

“When you find yourself beginning to feel a bond between yourself and the people you photograph, when you laugh and cry with their laughter and tears, you will know you are on the right track.” –Arthur Felig (‘weegee’)
