You want a photographer who gets it - someone who understands that your wedding isn't a photoshoot, it's one of the most meaningful days of your life. That's exactly how I see it too. Since 2017, I've gone into every wedding with one goal: capture honest images that showcase the real heart behind your relationships. Because that's what you'll hold onto forever.
You're right, being in front of the camera is hard. Your insecurities are magnified. And you're expected to be yourself, smile, hug and kiss in front of a guy you basically just met.
It's wild! So, let's take off some of that pressure. You'll quickly discover that I'm just a regular guy who loves making people laugh and feel at ease. So drop the pressure, be yourself, and let's have a damn good time.
My photos aren't perfectly posed or planned. And they certainly aren't over-edited and contrived. Instead, they capture an unexpected emotion or energy, such as a look or a candid moment where you can really feel the love and joy of the day.
My job isn't to create those kinds of moments. My job is to gently encourage and guide you as I organically preserve them. I'm all about an incredible experience first and amazing photos second. On your wedding day, I'll be spending more time with you than anyone else — the last thing you want or need is someone you clash with, taking you out of the moment or making your day more stressful. I've got your back. And I'll make sure you have one hell of a time.
So when you look back — five, ten, fifty years from now — you don't just see your wedding. You feel it.

Senior year of high school. A photojournalism project. A dingy little camera. I wandered into the French Quarter and started photographing people, street performers, buildings - the raw energy that is New Orleans. I had no idea it would turn into a lifelong passion.
It all began...
My earliest memories of wedding photos involve looking through my parent’s album and laughing at their outfits. (It was the 80's, after all). It's a funny memory. But the beauty of it? We get to go back in time and experience the love that they shared on the best day of their lives. And I want to create that same experience for you and your future generations.
I love what I do because...
"Not only is he a talented photographer, but he also has such a warm and down-to-earth personality that makes it easy to be yourself and get comfortable in front of the camera. He is extremely detail-oriented and we really feel like he captured every single moment perfectly. "
"If you’re someone like me and not the queen of selfies, it could easily be incredibly awkward to have a camera following you everywhere. However, Kevin was just so personable, patient, and kind that I immediately felt comfortable with him taking photos.”
he last thing you want is to spend your wedding day being pulled away from the people you love for endless photo sessions. That's not how I work.
I approach your day in an unobtrusive and unassuming
way, striving not to take you out of the moment so that you
can be in it.
And because we'll nail down your family photo lists and
the timeline in advance, I'll help keep things running
smoothly. You can enjoy your family, friends, food, and fun
- uninterrupted, undistracted, and almost totally unaware
that I'm there capturing it all. We'll not only get you to the
ceremony on time, we'll get you to that party too.
