FROM ELOPEMENTS TO BIG WEDDINGS

Whether you're planning a grand celebration or an intimate elopement, I am passionate about capturing both.

For large weddings, expect a blend of vibrant, candid moments, grand group photos, and lively party scenes. My goal is to document the full spectrum of your special day, from the official portraits to the spontaneous celebrations.

In contrast, elopements offer a chance to explore hidden gems and embrace more personal, intimate moments. With no time constraints, I focus on creating timeless, serene photographs that reflect the unique essence of your private ceremony. No matter the scale of your wedding, I am dedicated to preserving your story with authenticity and artistry.

WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHY

Along with taking photos, I also capture short videos as a videographer during the shoot to preserve moments that a single photo can’t fully express.

These videos highlight the movement, energy, and emotions of your wedding day, giving it a more lively, dynamic feel. By combining photos and videos, I offer memories that don’t just show how things looked but also how they felt, allowing you to relive your day in a deeper way. It adds another layer to your wedding story, creating a fuller, more immersive experience.

Bridesmaids are usually close friends or family members of the bride and play a crucial role throughout the wedding planning and event. Their primary responsibility is to support the Maid of Honor and assist the bride in various tasks. Their duties include offering emotional support to the bride, helping plan and fund the bridal shower and bachelorette party, and attending all pre-wedding events such as the engagement party and rehearsal dinner. They are also expected to run errands, keep track of gifts, assist with wedding DIY projects, and purchase their own gowns and accessories. On the wedding day, bridesmaids help the bride get ready, assist with decorations, coordinate with vendors, walk down the aisle, and interact with guests. They stay until the end of the reception, helping to pack gifts and clean up.
