In 2023, I was where you are, planning my own wedding.
I had already been photographing weddings for years, but experiencing the process from the other side sharpened my understanding of what couples need most. Not more opinions or added noise, but someone who sees the full picture, anticipates what’s coming next, and helps the day unfold without unnecessary stress.
That perspective shapes how I work. I pay close attention to both the big moments and the in-between ones, guiding things calmly when needed and staying out of the way when it matters, so couples can stay present rather than manage logistics.
I know what it feels like to care deeply about this day. My role is to help you move through it with confidence and walk away with photographs that reflect not just how it looked, but how it felt to be there.
BEHIND THE LENS
Your wedding day holds a lot of meaning, but it also moves quickly. My role is to help you stay present in it while making sure the moments that matter are thoughtfully preserved.
From how I guide you during portraits to how I anticipate what’s coming next, my approach is built on trust, pacing, and attention to detail. I offer direction when it’s helpful, step back when it’s not, and stay focused on creating space for real moments to unfold naturally.
When you feel comfortable and supported, you don’t have to perform or manage the day. You can simply be yourselves. That’s when the photographs feel honest, grounded, and true to who you are.

“Paul made us feel so cared for during the entire process. He goes above and beyond to make you feel celebrated."
I’ve been in your shoes, which means I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to carry this part of the day.
Before the wedding, we talk through what matters most to you and how photography fits naturally into the rhythm of the day. I help you think through timing, portraits, and flow so nothing feels rushed or overly structured, and so the day has room to breathe.
On the wedding day, I stay attentive to the moving parts. I keep portraits efficient and relaxed, guide family photos with clarity, and adjust quietly as the timeline shifts. If something needs to change, I handle it without adding pressure, so you can stay focused on the people and moments that matter most.
After the wedding, the experience continues. You’ll receive sneak peeks shortly after the day, along with clear communication as your full gallery comes together. From there, I design a custom album that tells the story of your wedding with intention and care. We review it together, refine it collaboratively, and bring it to completion so you’re not left sorting through files, but guided all the way to a finished heirloom.
Trust shapes everything. I work to create an environment where you feel comfortable, respected, and free to be yourselves. When that foundation is there, moments unfold naturally and honestly.
I approach weddings with intention and care, focusing on real moments and thoughtful composition. The goal is imagery that feels timeless and true, never forced or driven by trends.
Wedding days move quickly, and details matter. I show up prepared, attentive, and steady so nothing important is missed and you can feel confident knowing this part is handled.
I proudly support Purple Leash Project, helping survivors of domestic violence and their pets find safety together. I also contribute to the Sierra Club, supporting the protection of wild places and the natural world.
If you’re looking for wedding photography that feels calm, thoughtful, and fully handled, I’d love to hear more about what you’re planning.
From our first conversation to the finished artwork, the goal is simple. You feel supported, confident, and free to enjoy your day, knowing this part is taken care of.
