I grew up in a divided home, literally. Splitting time between my parents after their divorce, often being in the middle of their fighting, made me grow into a very empathetic and aware person. It’s become the biggest strength I take with me into wedding days. My documentary style stems from my ability to sense when special moments are about to happen. I am able to sense emotions that aren’t necessarily visible, sense when to come close and when to be a fly-on-the-wall, and sense what/who is important to you therefore important to photograph.

Weddings are all about two people who come from two walks of life and two different families. Having a personally complicated family-dynamic in my life has given me the tools to navigate all kinds of family-dynamics throughout a wedding day, and especially during family formals.
