A Note From The Artist

When I first started photographing weddings, I thought to myself, “it can’t get any better than this.” I mean, I loved what I was doing, the atmosphere inspired me to create art, and all my couples were super awesome to work with. Now, I find myself saying the same thing over and over again after each wedding, family portrait, senior session, and photography workshop. My wife and I feel that we’ve been so greatly blessed by God with the families that I get to work with. Thank you all for expressing your appreciation of my work. I’m at a loss for words in expressing my gratitude, but it’s appropriate to repeat — Thank you!

About The Artist

I remember sketching Mecha-fighters and Transformers characters on notebook paper when I was a little kid. Then our family got our first video camcorder — my brother and I used to make music videos using laundry baskets and table lamps. Then in junior high, I would sell cartoon sketches to my friends to put in their binders for ten bucks a piece. Fast forward to the present — I still get to do what I love, minus Optimus Prime and Betamax tapes. Now, I get to be an artist while being a husband to my precious wife, Cecilia, and dad to our four little autobots, Annalise, Tessa, Sojourner, and Zion Journey.
