Creatively capturing your unforgettable moments for a lifetime!
My goal with every photoshoot is to build a genuine connection with my clients and create an experience that feels effortless, enjoyable, and completely personalized. Whether it's a wedding, engagement, surprise proposal, or portrait session, I focus on capturing real emotions and meaningful moments.
I know being in front of the camera can feel a bit daunting—that’s why I work to make you feel at ease and confident. From gentle direction on natural posing to catching those spontaneous, candid interactions, I aim to reflect your true self in every image.
What sets me apart? I’m not just here to take photos—I’m here to build a relationship. It all begins with a consultation call and often grows into lasting friendships. My mission is to create images that feel both personal and timeless. Let’s make something beautiful together!

Testimonials
Kevin and Rachel
"Dave was amazing! I was looking for a photographer to capture a proposal and do a shoot afterward. Dave was very helpful during the planning process. He replied quickly, gave the shoot a lot of thought and helped me make it as stunning as possible. He truly knows how to take photos and is highly passionate about the experience. I loved how he guided us through the entire experience. He made it fun, had curated ideas specific to the place we were shooting and went above and beyond. I would like to especially shout out his commitment to the process before and after the shoot. He seemed to spend a few hours researching the location & afterward he put a lot of work editing beautiful photos. I highly recommend him if you are looking for someone reliable to capture photos!"
