The wedding photography industry has spent two decades pushing couples toward bigger, longer, more elaborate. The intimate wedding revolution is the reaction — couples saying "we want it small, we want it real, we want our actual wedding, not a stage version of it."

That's the work I want to do. Documentary, candid, editorial-finish elopement photography — not the formal posed portrait industry, not the saturated style of the last decade.

In practice: I show up early, watch the morning happen, document the rituals (the dress hanging in light, the ring rolling between fingers, the message your dad sent that morning), and stay close — but never in the way — through the ceremony and into the celebration.

Editing is part of the value. Soft tones, neutral palette, no oversaturated lights, no harsh contrast. The photos look like the wedding actually was.
