You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.

Tiffany was amazing! I love that we got to do a “test run” for our engagement pictures to really get to know each other and see how we’d work together. On the day of the wedding, even though things were not all going to plan, she was steady and calm the whole time. Everything turned out amazing. She really listens and is one of the nicest humans! She caught some of the most amazing moments from family and friends. She was organized, reliable and captured all the best moments. She’s everything you need in a photographer Highly recommend!!
