Before I Fell in Love With Weddings, I Fell in Love With This

I found my calling in weddings.But I found my fire in the streets.

Before I ever photographed a white dress or tearful vow, I was chasing light through chaos and conviction. I was documenting voices the world tried to overlook. My first love was photojournalism. Not posed. Not polished. Just real.

The No Kings Day protest in Dallas reminded me why I fell in love with photography in the first place. Not for the perfect moments, but for the powerful ones. The ones full of grit and truth and passion.

I show up to weddings with reverence because I know the weight of a moment. I know how to listen with my lens. And I carry both my loves with me every time I pick up my camera.

This is part of my story.This is part of what shapes my eye.And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
