A quiet place to scroll and get inspired for your upcoming wedding, my blog is inviting and inclusive. My goal for anything in this industry is to be affirming of all couples and people in love. As a queer trans person whose been photographing weddings of all varieties for ten years now, you'll notice I have a cinematic approach to photography. Loren does as well. You'll see some of their images from a few weddings this last year, they flew out from Seattle to work with me this last October.

We have things to show you!

Danine and Nathaniel have strong personalities. Both of them have a presence that makes you feel like friends after a few minutes of knowing them. For their engagement session, we kicked it off with a shot of whiskey. To be honest; I’m not as big a fan of whiskey as I once was. I felt […]

Sometimes I really get to know my clients over time, sometimes they find me a few months out and we don’t have time for an engagement session to meet one another. I really didn’t know what to expect for Allison and Sheldon but I did shoot Allison’s sister Angela’s wedding at the same venue, loft28west, […]
