Your wedding is more than a place on a map.

“My vision gets me invited. My character gets me invited back.”

Weddings around the world

Different places.
Remarkably personal stories.

Three places. Three celebrations, each entirely their own.

The complete portfolio

Artful without losing the truth.

After more than 1,000 weddings, I still look for the image I have never made before. Always with your people, and the way it felt, at its heart.

The destination experience

More time. More trust. More of the story.

My first destination wedding was on Maui in 1993. Arriving early changed everything: by the wedding day, guests were familiar faces, and the photographs felt more honest.

That same approach shapes my work today. From the welcome gathering to the last dance, I make time to know your people and tell the whole story. Nick and Claire’s wedding book brings that approach to life: the complete album I designed for them, shared here page by page so you can see how a celebration becomes a book of your own.

Life in volumes · The wedding book

A finished book belongs in your hands.

The weekend passes. The story stays.

The welcome dinner, the quiet embrace, the people on the dance floor. Personally edited and thoughtfully designed, your book brings the whole weekend together—a story to hold, share, and return to.

The beginning of a collection

Your wedding is the first chapter.

A wedding. An anniversary. A journey together. Over time, these volumes become a family’s own library—each one holding a chapter worth keeping.

Personally edited. Thoughtfully made.

From the weekend to your hands.

I begin with the story as I saw it. You make it your own.

A celebration worth remembering.
A book worth returning to.

The Wedding I Almost Missed

An original photograph. A true story. An invitation to see a little differently. There’s a garden hose in this photograph that has bugged me for almost twenty-five years. Look at the bottom left of the image. See it? The hose follows the edge of the path perfectly until it gets close to the bottom of the frame, where it bows out. I wish it didn’t do that. I know. Of all the things in this photograph, that’s what I notice. A beautiful bride. A Vera Wang dress. A single rose. An English estate. A pathway that pulls your eye through the frame toward a garden house that looks like something out of Downton Abbey . And I’m looking at the hose.…

Romancing the Storm

An original photograph. A true story. An invitation to see a little differently. The photograph I traveled to Tornado Alley to make is not this photograph. We went looking for a tornado. Mother Nature gave us lightning instead. It was May 2009 when a photographer friend and we decided it would be a good idea to take a bride and groom into Tornado Alley during tornado season and photograph them in front of a tornado. To be honest, I was very reluctant. Driving toward a tornado went against most of my natural instincts. Being tornado-adjacent isn’t my idea of blowing off some steam. Tornadoes are unpredictable. Dangerous. And completely…

Don’t Let Grandma Find Out

An original photograph. A true story. An invitation to see a little differently. I don’t remember who. I don’t remember exactly what was said. Honestly, I don’t even remember who this woman was. I believe she may have been the bride’s grandmother. But I remember this photograph. I’ve always loved it. Her mouth is open mid-sentence. Her eyes are locked on someone just outside the frame. And that long, bony finger is raised and shaking in a way that tells you whoever was on the receiving end was getting an earful. I’ve always thought of her as my grandma. I mean I captured her… so I guess I get to claim her. Look a little longer and the…
