I am a documentary-style wedding photographer. I focus on capturing candid moments throughout the wedding day. Because those photos tell the story of a wedding day. You aren't acting or putting on a face in those authentic moments. You are just being yourselves. This leads to the photos that are organic, authentic, and real. You can see and feel the love that the you have for each other and that your friends and family have for you.
As a wedding photographer, I am a storyteller, but not in the traditional sense. The story I tell is not mine; it's yours. My role is to document your unique narrative, the images I create so that you can revisit and share it for years to come.

I just got my gallery back and it really cemented how professional and amazing Vince is. In 100 alternate universes where I planned this wedding 100 different ways, I’d hire Vince every time! He makes everything feel so comfortable. His help with the timeline for the day was invaluable - from the first meeting I knew we were a good fit and was so excited for him to work his magic! I typically don’t love how I look in pictures, so I was really afraid of the portrait shots/posed family pics, but Vince just brought such a good energy with him that I was able to relax and I just adore the way they came out. Furthermore, he caught some of the most beautiful candid shots where my guests and I were simply having fun and celebrating.. perfectly captured every “fly on the wall” moment we could have asked for. He really went above and beyond making sure that a) we had a wonderful day, and b) that all those wonderful memories were documented. Vince is worth every penny!!!

Vince was an absolutely amazing photographer for our big day. He was our photographer for our engagement pictures and for our wedding and we couldn't have been happier. He made us feel comfortable especially since my husband and I were not fond of getting our pictures taken. He very personable and easy to get along with and our whole bridal party and family said they loved working with him. He truly did everything he could to make our day special and we are in love with the pictures we received from him.

Vince did our engagement photos and will be shooting our wedding this summer as well. Not only did the photos come out absolutely AMAZING, Vince also made the experience incredibly enjoyable and comfortable for two camera-shy introverts. We cannot recommend him enough for all your special events.

This guy can shoot in the dark! We inadvertently put Vince through the wringer when a massive storm caused a power outage at our venue. Without missing a beat, Vince had battery-powered lights up, ready to take our portraits in the dark. He also used the opportunity to take some creative and gorgeous "getting ready" shots utilizing the bridesmaids phone lights as illumination. Luckily we got the power back on before the reception officially began.
We loved Vince's positive and casual attitude throughout the experience. He was upfront with his thoughts and ideas and it's worth noting how comfortable of an environment he created all through the day.
Our immediate draw to Vince's photography was his color work. His photos hold a timeless and iconic warmth that fits with the style we were looking for perfectly. We also loved his creativity. Not only does Vince bring unique ideas to the table (check out his dance floor photography!), but he was very resourceful in problem-solving, turning would-be problems into opportunities.
We couldn't recommend Vince enough. Incredible work and a fantastic person.

Vince was fantastic for our wedding in May 2024! The creativity in the shots, attention to detail, ability to blend in to not feel like cameras were in our face, and the fast turn around on the pictures was much appreciated. We would highly recommend!

Vince did an amazing job capturing all of the big and small moments. He was extremely generous in helping us through the planning process and worked with us to meet our budget and needs. Vince was extremely thorough in our meetings prior to the wedding to ensure we got what we wanted and executed all of our planning to perfection. He also knew what moments and aesthetics to capture during our Catholic ceremony.
