Wedding: History and Beliefs
Your wedding day is going to be beautiful. I could describe to you all the wonderful things that are going to happen during your wedding day, but you already know how fascinating it is going to be. You are here to discover who I am and why I would be the best person to capture all the precious moments as a photographer or video producer on your wedding day.
I began working with wedding couples in the spring of 2002. I just began my business and I was focusing on video taping weddings. My mom, who is my best advertiser, got me my first gig by introducing me to Ryan and Becca Johnson. They were looking for someone to video tape their mountainside wedding on the outskirts of Bozeman, Montana. This was the same location where Hollywood filmed The Horse Whisperer. The Johnsons could have gone with another video company than to have me travel up there to shoot their wedding. I earned their trust with my artistic abilities to capture this once in a lifetime moment at an unbelievable venue. Their video turned out to be magical and was the foundation of what was to come. I now offer photography as part of my creative services. I have worked with more than 40-couples and have traveled across the United States to interesting locations such as Laguna Beach, CA, Pittsburgh, PN, and Mesa, CO.
I will treat your wedding with the care as if it were my own, because I know when the day comes for me, I wouldn't expect any less than what I can offer you. Your wedding will be the best day of your life and I want to capture your most cherished moments. Weddings go by fast and the memory of it is a blur for most married couples, but there is no need to worry, because I am there to capture the special moments and details for you to relive over and over again.
I offer photography and video services that are one of a kind. I have the experience, creativity and artistic eye. I take great pride in my work and I encourage you to visit with me, preview my work and see how charming it is. I believe you will find I provide exceptional quality at a great value. I look forward to creating a special keepsake just for you.
