The photographer

I’m one of those people who has a hard time coming up with stuff to say about himself.  I don’t particularly like to draw attention to myself and I always feel awkward when I try to brag about what I do.  Hopefully my work paints a clearer picture of what I’m about than what I write on this page.

My photography started in college at Georgia Tech back in 2003.  I worked for the newspaper there, developing my technical, artistic, and my photojournalistic skills over the course of 4 years.  At the time I used photography as a creative release from the dry, computational nature of the classes I took there for 5-1/2 years.   Photography was far more satisfying than the two solid years of calculus I took.

I started photographing weddings professionally in 2005 and I covered my 150th wedding earlier this year.  I have experience with traditional American weddings, as well as a wide array of ethnic weddings.

Photographically I like clean, vibrant, natural colors.  In both my image capture and editing I strive for a beautiful, classic, yet creative style of photography.  I avoid cheesy poses and editing styles that are going to make you embarrassed of your wedding photos in 5 years.  I also avoid the trap of treating all couples the same.  Some people are crazy and outgoing while others are more quiet and reserved.  Odds are these couples will get completely different, but equally awesome photos on their wedding day.  The goal here is awesome pictures that are “you”, not anyone else.
I’m located in the Atlanta area and am open for travel.
