The FAQ
What is your photographic style?
I specialize in capturing the beauty and significance of the meaningful moments of life. My photography style blends portraiture and documentary photography, showcasing your special day with a focus on your unique personality.
Whether it's capturing formal poses or candid moments (if you don't like to pose you don't have to :) I aim to create a visual narrative that tells your story.
Where are you located?
I'm based in California, San Francisco Bay Area and we also cover events in San Diego and Los Angeles area without any extra travel fees.
Do you travel?
Sure do! I have shot all over the country. Including Nevada, Utah, Illinois and some cities in Mexico.
When you inquire, let me know where your awesome destination is and I will let you know if I’m available!
Do you charge travel fees?

Beyond that, there may be a travel fee - or not - contact me to find out if there will be. I will always be transparent in my pricing and you will never get any surprise charges from me!
