A camera and a career that never fit in one box.
Thirteen years, still all in.
Weddings. Commercial. Editorial.
With a side of comedy production - because great timing is everything.
A photographer. A producer. Sometimes both at once.
The goal never changes:
Give everything, capture it all, and care beyond reason.

Reliving this incredible wedding weekend in Marfa, filled with movies, mariachis, and piñatas on @overthemoon .
The couple welcomed their guests with a rehearsal dinner and an outdoor movie night. The plan was to do an outdoor screening of Raising Arizona, but a Texas size storm rolled in. The party quickly relocated to a former Art Deco movie theatre in downtown Marfa for the screening.
They envisioned a Terrence Malick-inspired backdrop for the ceremony. When they found the perfect spot, they mowed a path and added some bleachers for seating. Then they parked a champagne trailer along the path, allowing guests to enjoy a glass while listening to the beautiful music by Mariachi Las Coronelas.

A small detail that changed everything.
Handwritten envelopes, opened at the table, each one holding a different kind of Valentine.
Unexpected, a little nostalgic, and an instant conversation starter.
