let me take a guess.. you want wedding photos that actually feel like you — a perfect mix of candid and real moments.

you want to spend your wedding day actually enjoying it and soaking it all in. Hanging out with your favorite people, celebrating big, and not worrying about awkward poses because when you're comfortable? that's when the magic happens. these are the photos that'll take you right back to how your day actually felt—from the intimate moments to the full-on dance floor celebrations.

Come as you are, no posing required.

inspired by

I didn't hire a wedding photographer for my own wedding & that regret is exactly why I am so passionate about your wedding day now.

Trust me, I get it you're probably: totally overwhelmed by all the options, everything's booking up way too fast, a little lost because hello, you've never done this before, nervous about investing this much in someone you just met online, but I'm gonna place bets that's how you met your fiancé so it's not that scary ;)

My goal is to make the whole experience feel like a warm, cozy hug that leaves you with memories as amazing as the photos themselves.

I'm alex - nice to meet you!
