POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I may be slowly turning into an old, bitter wedding planner, but give me a great team, a good DJ, and photographers who know how to have fun, and apparently I'm still capable of enjoying myself. 😅

These are the people who make the long days worth it. Couldn't have asked for a better crew. 🤍

You should’ve been there…

The tent was draped in green, the chandelier dripping in calla lilies, and the dance floor never stood a chance.

Lindsey & Michael brought the energy with five fashion looks, a live saxophonist, and an after party in custom beaded Oscar de la Renta. Westmoreland Country Club has never seen a night like this.

There’s something incredibly special about photographing the same milestones a decade apart.

I had the chance to photograph Alena’s 30th birthday, and ten years later, she reached out to me again to capture her 40th. Having clients return and trust me to document another chapter of their lives is truly one of the most meaningful parts of what I do.

This time, Alena celebrated with The Night Court — a stunning evening inspired by A Court of Thorns and Roses, with the book itself given to guests as a party favor. Every detail brought the theme to life, from the florals and starry touches to the silver-dusted berries.

But beyond all the beautiful details, it was the people who made the night unforgettable — emotional speeches, incredible Greek dancing that had everyone on the dance floor, lots of laughter, and absolutely outstanding food. It was one of those celebrations where you could truly feel how loved Alena is.

Happy 40th, Alena! 🥂 Thank you for bringing me back ten years later to capture another beautiful milestone. Here’s to the next decade!

I thought I would take rolls and rolls of my own film on my wedding day. Turns out I barely got a handful of shots because I was too busy enjoying being married and all that ooey gooey lovey stuff.

Aaron snagged the one of us on the trolley.
