All of these forces got me out of business school and into a professional, full-time photography program at the New England School of Photography. What a great experience and a great foundation. I immediately discovered that my passion was documenting people and their lives. So in 1996, I started working for local newspapers in Massachusetts. I fell into weddings by accident when a fellow photographer at the paper told me she shot weddings on the side.

Kim and I moved to the Washington DC area in 2000 for a change of pace, since we both grew up in Massachusetts. I continued working for newspapers and balancing a wedding business, but decided in 2003 to focus solely on documenting weddings. Now, to each wedding, I bring my passion for the craft and my experience documenting hundreds of weddings and thousands of newspaper assignments. I love every minute of it.

I currently live in Maryland with Kim and our 4-year-old son, Zack. Having an artist for a mother and a photographer for a father, Zack did have a camera around his neck at the age of 2.
