Nice to meet you!
Thank you for being here. to truly know me, meet my family. They witness my love for photography.
You should know me more than just as a photographer. I love coffee, and I’m happily married to my wife, Michelle, for 21 years. I’m also a father to Mateo, my 14-year-old son, and little Mikel, who always makes me laugh. They inspire me and often join me during shoots.
We have much in common. I get excited, cry, smile, and dance. I will share one of the best days of your life with you and your family because the person you'll spend the most time with on your wedding day is your photographer.
