your destination wedding photographer!

Can I be honest with you right off the jump?
I don't LOVE my wedding photos.....
WHAT? 
Let me explain.....
I love the fact that we have wedding images, that they day was captured, that I do have those memories.
But I don't LOVE our images. 
And it's not the photographer's fault, it's mine. I didn't do my research on the photographers. I chose strictly on price. My theory was "quantity over quality" and as we were paying for the wedding, I made the choice to skimp on the one vendor I shouldn't have. 
Because now, I have wedding images that I don't LOVE

I created this business around that. To make sure my couples LOVE their wedding images, year after year.
Because while every detail of your wedding is important,
 your flowers will fade.
Your dress will be put away.
Your cake will get eaten.
Your makeup will be wiped off.
But your images, your memories of this important day, will outlast everything. This images your children will see. 

Today, you start your legacy.
Shouldn't you LOVE the images that created that?

"SEE THE LINE WHERE THE SKY MEETS THE SEA IT CALLS ME
AND NO ONE KNOWS, HOW FAR IT GOES"

THE OCEAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN A SOURCE OF JOY AND PEACE FOR ME. SOMETHING ABOUT IT LITERALLY WASHES ALL OF MY TROUBLES AWAY. THE SMELL OF THE WATER, THE TASTE OF THE SALT, THE BLUENESS OF THE OCEAN, MAKES MY SOUL A PEACE
