I discovered my passion for photography while attending high school in Lahaina at the age of 16 while working at a photographic retail store in Maui, Hawaii. During my time there, I learned about photography equipment, darkroom techniques, client relations, and sales. I further improved my skills in Los Angeles, California, where I learned about studio lighting and strobe usage for location photography. I was fortunate enough to work with some of the best fashion and celebrity photographers, which helped me refine my craft. I continued to learn through workshops, trade shows, and mentors.
I have been a photographer with a successful 38+ year career, specializing in wedding photography since 1994. My unique style incorporates Charleston's historic scenery with a fashion-forward approach. After photographing a wedding for a top coordinator planner, I became the most in-demand wedding photographer in Charleston, capturing over 125 weddings in a year. I have captured over 550 weddings in my 29 years in the business and am grateful to my clients for entrusting me with their special day. I have also collaborated with talented wedding vendors in the Lowcountry area, utilizing my strategic mindset, extensive photography experience, and deep understanding of the art to contribute to my success.
