Your love story — frame by frame.

How do you imagine your wedding day?

Is it a cozy family gathering at your parents house, or small picnic in Central Park, where you went with your best friends after the short ceremony at the City Hall? Or maybe you've waited so long to invite everyone you know to a big venue? Your family might also live around the globe now, and you chose the destination you've always dreamed of?  
We’re all different — and so are the ways we want to celebrate love. For me as a photographer, the most important thing is that you feel comfortable and fully enjoy the day. I make sure everything is planned and discussed, nothing important is missing in the pictures, and the best memories are captured.  Let’s save those beautiful moments so that, years from now, you can look back, smile, and say, “Jeez, were we young!” 

I’ve been capturing life since 2009 — all around the world. These days, I split my time between San Francisco and New York City.  I often travel across the U.S. and Europe — it is my version of balance when I’m not off hiking in the Himalayas (you can read about it in my blog).
My approach is rooted in documentary storytelling. I capture the true atmosphere of your day — the laughter, the glances, the quiet in-betweens. With a background in fashion, I bring a refined, editorial sensibility to your portraits, blending spontaneity with elegance.
I photograph weddings, elopements, engagements, and intimate portrait sessions — and small, heartfelt celebrations are my absolute favorite.

Let’s make your dream wedding real!
