Get your Modern & Vibrant Micro-Wedding Photos Without the Wait, the Stress, or the Big-Wedding Price Tag

For couples planning microweddings, elopements, or intimate celebrations you get:

  • Up to 6 Hours of Coverage

  • Sneak Peeks in 72 Hours

  • Full Gallery in 4 Weeks or Less

  • Bonuses Worth $1000+

  • Modern, Fun & Emotional Photos You’ll Cherish for a Lifetime

Your love story doesn’t need 200 guests, a ballroom, or a 12-hour wedding day.
It just needs the two of you.

Whether you’re exchanging vows on a mountaintop, gathering with a few close friends in your backyard, or slipping away for an intimate elopement, you deserve photos that feel as real and bold as the love you share.

Most photographers make you wait months for your gallery. They charge thousands more for coverage you don’t even need. And they don’t always guarantee you’ll love what you get.

I built this package differently—so you can have all the magic of high-end wedding photography without the price tag, the wait, or the uncertainty.

I get it—being in front of a camera isn’t everyone’s favorite thing. Most couples worry about looking awkward or wonder if their photos will actually capture how the day felt.

Now imagine this: It’s your anniversary. You’re curled up on the couch, flipping through your wedding album. And instead of stiff poses, you’re reliving the exact emotions you felt—his teary-eyed vows, your dad’s terrible dance moves, the joy of your friends losing it on the dance floor. It’s you, completely unfiltered, and it feels just as alive as the day it happened.

That’s why I do what I do. Since 2009, I’ve photographed hundreds of weddings across Virginia and beyond, always with the same goal: to tell each couple’s story in a way that feels authentic, vibrant, and unapologetically them.

Outside of weddings, I’m a husband, dad, espresso martini enthusiast, and diehard 49ers fan. But what matters most to you? On your wedding day, I’m the calm in the chaos—the friend who makes you feel comfortable enough to be yourself, so the real memories can shine.

If that sounds like the experience you’re looking for, I’d love to hear about your day.

FAQ’s

  • There’s generally no limit to the number of guests you can invite to your wedding. A microwedding typically has fewer than 50 guests, but I’ve photographed celebrations with as many as 100. The focus is on keeping it intentional and meaningful, no matter the size.

  • Richmond is home, but travel is already included anywhere in Virginia, North Carolina, or Maryland. No surprise fees — if your love story takes us to the mountains, beaches, or vineyards, I’m there.

  • I recommend reaching out at least 3–6 months in advance. Dates fill quickly, and I only take on a limited number of weddings each year to give every couple my full attention.

  • Think bold colors, real emotions, and authentic storytelling. I capture your day as it unfolds, while guiding you into portraits that feel like you — never stiff or staged.

  • Absolutely. My job is to keep you relaxed and confident. I’ll gently guide you into flattering positions, then let your personalities take over. Translation: no “what do I do with my hands?!” stress.

  • No stress — every couple gets my Rainy Day Confidence Kit ($100 value), which includes clear umbrellas and a backup plan for portraits. Some of the most romantic images happen in the rain!

  • That’s actually my specialty. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2009, and I’ve yet to meet a couple who didn’t relax after five minutes with me. I’ll keep things light and easy so you can focus on being present, not posing.
