I guess this is where I'm supposed to talk about how much I love photography, or the awards I may have won.  I think you may already know that I love what I do, and I hope my images speak to you themselves.  What I would rather tell you what's important to me, and that is my clients.   One of the greatest enjoyments I get out of my business is showing one of my couples their wedding images for the first time.  Watching them laugh, smile, cry.  That's what it's all about, and that's why I love what I do.

Sweet Shot Graphics

Cara McKinlay did the programs at Kristin and Casey’s wedding and I was very impressed. They were creative while still being professional and classy.

Kristin and Casey’s wedding

Kristin and Casey are quite the team. I was really impressed with how comfortable they were being with each other all day. I understand why couples wait till the ceremony to see each other. It’s what I did at my wedding. But I have to say I was a little jealous seeing how much time...

Su Ahn + Yongkee, the wedding

Friends are one of those things that most of us take for granted. My family and I have been blessed with many friends throughout our life. Seeing Swan and Yongkee with their family and friends made me think about just that. Everyone at their wedding could have been their best friend. Thank you so much...
