I photographed my first wedding in 2011 and quickly realized how powerful wedding photography could be. The emotion, connection, and pace of the day immediately drew me in, and I knew this was something I wanted to pursue fully.
Before photography became my full-time career, I actually took a very different path. I graduated from The University of Akron with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and spent three years working as an engineer. That background still shapes the way I approach my work today—bringing a calm, thoughtful, and detail-oriented mindset into every wedding day.
In 2014, I made the leap to pursue wedding photography full-time, and it’s been one of the most rewarding decisions of my life. This career has allowed me to connect with so many incredible couples and take me to places all across the country, capturing stories that are deeply personal and completely unique. Being trusted with these moments is something I never take lightly.
Outside of weddings, you’ll usually find me out on a run through the parks, tackling a DIY project around the house, or exploring a new restaurant or coffee shop. I’m drawn to experiences that feel intentional and meaningful—whether that’s a quiet morning coffee, a long run to clear my head, or discovering something new that sparks inspiration.
