What do you want your wedding day to be like? How do you want it to go? Where do you want it to take place? How do you want to remember all the precious moments, big and small?

Your wedding day should be whatever you and your partner want it to be. This is your special day, and it should reflect the love you two have for each other.

Remember your wedding can be whatever you want it to be, and I want to be able to help you turn your dreams into reality.

INTIMATE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

 

A rustic Birmingham, Alabama wedding, an elegant Palm Springs, California wedding, a whimsical Pacific Northwest wedding on the Oregon coast, or something in between… I’ve photographed weddings of all shapes and sizes since 2010, and I want to do the same for you!

The weddings I love are intimate celebrations where the couple wants to enjoy the day, be laid back, and let me handle documenting all the moments. These are celebrations where you don’t have to worry about anything except enjoying the day with your partner and your guests. 

Your wedding day is about the two of you, and that is my priority when I photograph a celebration. My focus will be on getting as many photos of the two of you as possible. I love doing first looks and I love doing mini-shoots with couples throughout the wedding day or weekend!

ADVENTUROUS ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY

 

Going hand in hand with my love of photographing intimate wedding celebrations, I also love getting to photograph adventurous + destination elopement celebrations.

Make your own traditions and don’t worry about having to do what others have done in the past. Forge your own path and make your own memories. Don’t feel bound by traditions. An elopement can be anything you want it to be.

Whether you and your partner are wanting to do an adventurous elopement on the Oregon Coast, the Pacific Northwest, the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, a National Park celebration in Wyoming or Montana, an escapade to Palm Springs or Southern California, an intimate gathering in New England, a destination getaway to the Florida Keys, or anywhere else in the United States, I’d love to document all the special moments!

LARGE + TRADITIONAL WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

 

If you’re looking for someone to photograph your large + traditional wedding celebration, you’re also in the right place! I’d love to document all the special moments and details of your special day.

I define a large-scale or traditional wedding as having over 50 guests at the celebration.

I’ve photographed weddings of all shapes and sizes over the years, so don’t hesitate if you’d like me to photograph your big celebration.

WEDDING + ELOPEMENT WEEKEND PHOTOGRAPHY

 

Not only do I want to tell the full story of your wedding + elopement day, but I also want to tell the full story of your entire weekend!

That is why I offer a full wedding + elopement weekend photography package so all the great moments leading up to the celebration can be documented.  You can get a wedding weekend couples, bridal, and/or boudoir session along with coverage of the rehearsal dinner!

This is a great option for couples that want as many photographic memories from their special weekend as possible!

A FULL DAY'S COVERAGE FOR YOUR WEDDING + ELOPEMENT!

 

I’ve been photographing weddings + elopements since 2010, and, ever since then, I’ve operated with the philosophy of wanting to tell the entire story of a wedding or elopement.

That is why I offer all couples a full day’s coverage of their celebration. This means I do not put you on any time limit whatsoever.

My approach is simple. You give me a start time, and I’m there until all the events of the reception have been documented.

I’m committed to you for the entire day, not just 6 or 8 hours or some other pre-determined limit, because your entire day is important to me.

YOU GET YOUR PHOTOS BACK IN A MATTER OF DAYS... NOT MONTHS

 

One of the things I’ve believed in ever since I started photographing weddings + elopements is not making couples wait months and months to get their photos back.

These are precious memories, and I 100% believe in getting them delivered to you as quickly as possible.

That is why I promise to get your photos delivered to you within a week of your celebration date.

I start work on the photos immediately, and I do mean immediately, once I leave your celebration. I will also be sending you several sneak previews the day after your celebration.

Because this is my only job and because of the editing style I use, which you can learn about here, I can edit a full wedding shoot extremely quickly. If I’m editing a wedding, it is my chief priority above all else.

This means you can share all the great photos and memories with your special someone, your family, and your friends as quickly as possible.

Birmingham, Alabama is home, but I’ll go ANYWHERE in the United States to photograph your celebration.

On top of that, minimal travel fees are always built into the price you’re quoted, so you don’t get hit with any additional costs.

PRICING + PAYMENT STRUCTURE INFO

 

All wedding + elopement celebrations are different, and I don’t ever want to have a pre-determined price come between me and interested couples.

I firmly believe in giving you a quote that is personalized to your needs, your date, and your location. Generally speaking, my prices start in the $2000 range, but that could fluctuate for a variety of reasons. 

Sometimes certain dates and/or locations might be available at lower than normal prices or other circumstances might warrant a discounted rate.

That is why I enthusiastically encourage and request you to fill out the inquiry form below and tell me the details about your celebration. 

I will give you the best possible price based on those details and will try my best to work with your budget considerations. 

There will definitely be photographers that can give you a lower price, but I feel what I charge is well worth the time + effort put into documenting your celebration and editing the photos at a pace so you get them back in a matter of days, not weeks or months. 

To book your date, a signed agreement + a retainer of 1/4 of the package price would be required. A typical payment structure is based on a 120 Day-60 Day-Wedding Day schedule, but custom ones can be established.

Got married in January 2023 and had David as our photographer. He was so professional, courteous, and helpful throughout the entire process and all of the pictures turned out so much prettier than we could’ve ever imagined! Would recommend David 15/10!!

David is the absolute BEST!!! He went above and beyond to ensure my wedding day ran smoothly and our pictures turned out AMAZING!!! He is such a joy to have on your big day and there aren’t enough words in the English language to describe the amount of talent he has! I can be awkward when it comes to pictures, but you would never know it because David helped me in feeling like a beautiful and confident bride! There wasn’t a single regret I had and from the first time speaking to him, I knew we had a great photographer!

Michelle + Tommy

David us exceptional in more ways than I can express in words. I happened upon a landing page he had made in search of a Salem wedding and lo and behold, I was having a Salem wedding. I fell in love with his photos online and booked him 11 months before my wedding.

First and foremost, photography is the most important part of a wedding for myself and my now husband. So we did not take this decision lightly. I am elated to say 3 days after my wedding, it is the best decision we made for the wedding. David was SO communicative over the 11 months, doing random check-ins and holiday outreach. He was excellent at planning our photos ahead of time and on the day of, was the most personable, knowledgeable, and efficient person I've ever been around. He is SO caring, and committed, and put me at ease. We spoke about him more after our wedding than anything else!! Dare I say...we might actually miss him!!! Our photos were ready 3 days after the wedding and are literally stunning. We have not even been able to breathe since we got them. Long story short, I'd get married again just to see David, but I recommend anyone looking for a photographer to book him immediately.

David was so amazing to work with. His communication was very clear and was quick to respond. He was also on time with everything and made sure to stick to a schedule. Where I live is rainy a lot he made sure to take pictures outside when the sun popped through. Everyone that met him at the wedding said how nice he was and I have nothing but good things to say about him. I absolutely love the pictures he took and we got them back fast! I would 100% recommend him to anyone!

Erinn + Will

David was an amazing photographer for my wedding this June. Right from the get-go, he was very easy to communicate with. He responded quickly and with honest answers to the many questions I asked him. It took me forever to solidify my photographer choice and not once did he pressure me or do anything other than be patient while I made this decision. That was a welcome change from the many other photographers that I was considering during this process. The pictures were beautiful for both my engagement session and wedding. And to get them back so quickly is unheard of! He really works his butt off to get those out so fast He is very much worth the investment. Thank you, David!

Megan + John

What an amazing addition to our wedding! David went above and beyond before, during, and after our wedding. He was able to perfectly guide the day and keep us on a schedule without coming across as demanding. He was phenomenal at getting everything we wanted out of our wedding without us even having to ask. He found a way to make it fun and encouraged our theme that made the photoshoots more fun rather than awkward. Lastly, he had our photos done within 48 hours!! Would absolutely book again and even ask him to fly to us for more shoots!

Hailey + Ethan

David went quite literally out of his way to make our day even more special. From helping us coordinate things at the wedding to providing excellent photos. He was very experienced and doubled as a wedding coordinator at times. I definitely recommend David to anyone that is an adventurous couple with a destination location as he not only was happy to be at the wedding but without question traveled with us to the trash the dress location. This location was over an hour away and on mountain back roads. I could say more but you should put him to the test yourself! Thank you, David.

Charleston South Carolina Wedding Photography

Logan + Kurt

David is an outstanding photographer! Not only was he able to capture every special moment of our wedding, but he also played a huge role in the moments leading up to our ceremony as well. David went above and beyond by being punctual and even tackling coordinating duties that he was not expected to do which made everyone feel comfortable. He got our photos back to us quickly eliminating the typical anticipation that most newlyweds experience. Not only was he able to capture our special day through his camera lens, but he also took the time to put our photos into words in his descriptive blog post. He was able to capture our story not just by photos taken through his camera lens. David was truly one of a kind and we are so thankful for choosing such a talented photographer!

David is a wonderful person and an amazing photographer! We hired David for our January 2021 wedding in NC. Throughout our entire project with David, he was kind, patient, and professional. He gave me and my husband his full attention for the day before and the day of our celebration. All of the photos from our special weekend are fantastic! I could not have asked for a better photographer! I already want to work with him again.

If you’re looking for a super sweet, super approachable, and super professional photographer who will make you feel comfortable on your wedding day – David is amazing! He was super flexible throughout the day and took on many jobs and roles that were needed. Didn’t have a ride to the first look? David drove me himself. Needed someone to step in and direct people? David’s on it. His photos were super genuine and not posed, which is exactly what we were looking for. He still got the posed shots that we wanted, but he values authentic moments and capturing real emotion. We could not be happier with the photos he took for us!

Aleks + Alex

David did such an amazing job as my photographer at my 10/3/20 wedding. I found him through Facebook because my original photographer canceled, but this was a blessing in disguise. David was so wonderful, he got all the shots that I had asked him to, he is so professional, and the one thing I really like the most was that he took charge of the situation and made sure everything was organized when we were taking pictures with the wedding attendees. It gets so chaotic when everyone is trying to take pictures but David knew how to control the situation. I would 100% recommend David. Thank you for such a great experience.
