Your story is an exciting,
sacred thing, and making sure
that it is told honestly and
creatively through your wedding
photos is one of my greatest joys.
I’m the photographer that’s present on your wedding day (and days up to it)
to support you, read the room, and creatively capture your most important moments.
The Experience
Thomas has wonderful characteristics and an absolute passion for the art of photography. He didn’t just feel like a photographer, but like our friend.

“Storytelling and connection
are the two things that
matter most to me
when it comes to photography”
These two loves are the linchpins of my photography, a thing on which all other things, including systems, client interactions, editing styles (and the occasional outtake) are built. Don’t get me wrong, I love the act of taking pictures and I never have more fun than when I’m behind the camera, but storytelling and connection drive me.
Storytelling
I believe that flexing my creative muscles and experimenting with new concept shots is imperative to fresh, authentic photography. These are a huge help to me while I learn your story and discover the most compelling way to share it.
Connection
There is inherent value in getting to know and investing in the lives of the people I get to photograph. I’m a really relational guy, so learning about you inspires my creativity while also satisfying my desire to know people well.
Narrative Composition
Did you know that the majority of the population doesn’t imagine visuals? They can recall memories, but their minds don’t consistently form visual images. I believe that photographers are a rare and gifted breed of artists that specialize in visualization and then communicating art so you can remember them forever.
Narrative composition refers to the way I diagram the composition of a photo in my head. Before even taking the photo, I’m setting up lines, framing, shadows and quickly considering all the technical and analytical elements to narratively compose the shot and turn it into an impactful image.
My end goal is always capturing a moment that tells your story and reflects your journey.

Wedding Film Photography
Film photography is perfect for couples enamored with the analog art of a simpler time. Not only does film bring a unique, authentic twist to your wedding photography that can’t be duplicated, it also allows us to return to the past. A time when the anticipation of waiting for an image to develop drove your excitement. Film photography isn’t heavily filtered or edited, instead, it focuses on capturing moments in a raw and creative way.
