This Isn’t Just Photography.
It’s How You’ll Remember Your Story.
You’re planning more than a wedding — you’re chasing a feeling, a memory, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
With over 500 weddings behind me and thousands of love stories heard, I’ll help you relive not just how your day looked,
but exactly how it felt.
Let's make some Magic
If You Blink, This Moment Will Pass
If you bounce now, you risk missing out on images that don’t just check the boxes, but transport you back.
Your wedding day is a whirlwind — and so is the planning. It’s easy to say “we’ll figure it out later.”
The photographers who get it — who can tell your story with heart and artistry — get booked fast.
Not a Model? You Don’t Need to Be.
Nearly every couple tells me the same thing at first: “We’re not photogenic. We don’t know what to do.” And every single one of them walks away with photos that feel effortless, emotional, and entirely them.
Let's Do this!
“Nathan made us feel so comfortable that we actually forgot he was taking pictures of us.” – Peter + Kyla
“My husband really dislikes having his photo taken… it was a breeze. Nathan is so easygoing.” – Theron + Jess
“We’re camera-shy, but he somehow manages to capture the most genuine moments.” – Matt + Stephanie
