A STORYTELLING EXPERT, CAPTURING ROMANTIC, FUNNY MOMENTS

I am a wedding/family photographer that photographs honestly, without bulky lighting systems or assistants. As a wedding reportage photographer, I observe and capture genuine moments, real emotions, and reactions. I'm taking pictures for over 15 years now but I've been shooting weddings for 10 years.
