ALWAYS REAL LIFE.

ALWAYS AUTHENTIC.



EVERY FAMILY IS DIFFERENT

I'm not like other photographers you might come across. No posing, no props. Instead, I focus on capturing real life: the bleary morning eyes, the messy baby, the naughty pup. Those are the moments you'll always want to remember.

UNPOSED. UNSCRIPTED. AUTHENTIC.

WHAT IS DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY?

Time is so fleeting and change is constantly happening around us and to us whether we want it or not.

Think back to your childhood. What are some of your most treasured memories with your family? A family vacation visiting the beach, jumping in the waves and making sand castles. A birthday party with all your favorite people, eating so much candy and cake that you still cringe at the thought of it. A song your mother always sang to you as you lay in bed while she brushed her fingers through your hair till you fell asleep.

As a documentary photographer, my job is to capture that. I spend a few hours, all day, or all week with you and your family just capturing real life as it unfolds. Think it might be weird to have me follow you around for a day? After an hour or two you won’t even notice me anymore. By the end of it we’ll be friends if we aren’t already. We talk about a plan for the day, typically picking a few activities if we are planning a family session, but there’s no need for posing or fancy outfits (unless that’s your thing already).
