I was born & raised in Norfolk, VA. I graduated from Norfolk Christian High School and went to James Madison University to get my bachelor’s degree in Computer Science. I married my wife Beth in July 2003 at the Founders Inn and I’ve been a wedding & portrait photographer since 2005, when I started my business as “Portrait Photography of Virginia Beach”. We live in Moyock, NC with our three children Annelise, Ethan, and Tristan.

We love to have fun and travel, even if it’s just a quick road trip to visit family & friends. I took Beth to Paris & Rome for our ten-year anniversary and we’re hoping to see more of the world as our kids get older. We’ve gone to Disney World a few times with the kids when they were younger, but you’ll find us at Busch Gardens Williamsburg more often than not.

I’m a storyteller and I love a good story! That’s what a photographer does after all, isn’t it? Stories define our history and when we’re the star of the story, through photographs, a picture truly becomes worth a thousand words.

What I love most about photography is reflecting on moments frozen in time. I’m keenly aware that the photographs I make for you will become more precious over the years. The power of photography takes us back to those moments and fills our hearts with strong emotions. I’ve been one of Virginia Beach’s wedding photographers since 2005 and I have photographed hundreds of weddings and family portraits on the beautiful beaches and parks in Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Norfolk, Suffolk, and all of Hampton Roads. Known for my creative use of light and abstract photography, I enjoy finding unique ways to create photographs that are sure to inspire and bring life, love, and happiness to your memories!
