About Me
How It All Began
With a deep passion for celebrating love stories, my journey as a wedding officiant began in 2007 in the most unexpected way through a social media platform called Myspace. At the time, I wasn’t a photographer or an officiant. I was simply connecting with people, sharing life, and being part of online communities when a message changed the direction of my life.
Two young women reached out to me with a heartfelt request, asking if I would be willing to travel to New York to perform a commitment ceremony. I had never officiated a ceremony before and had never imagined myself in that role. I remember feeling surprised, honored, and deeply nervous but something in my heart said yes.
That first ceremony was unforgettable. Standing in front of a couple who trusted me with such a meaningful moment opened my eyes to the true power of ceremony. I quickly realized that being an officiant is not about perfection it’s about presence, intention, and holding space for love. That experience planted a seed that would continue to grow over time.
As my journey unfolded, I later discovered photography and fell in love with capturing couples and their stories through images. Photography deepened my appreciation for emotion, connection, and authentic moments, and it strengthened the way I related to the couples I worked with.
Over time, these two worlds connection and storytelling came together naturally. What began as a single commitment ceremony evolved into a calling. With every ceremony, I gained a deeper understanding of how moments are felt, remembered, and honored.
Since that first ceremony in New York, countless couples have trusted me to guide them through one of life’s most meaningful moments. I approach every wedding with warmth, humor, and deep respect for each couple’s wishes, creating ceremonies that are personal, heartfelt, and true to who they are.
What started with one simple message has grown into a lifelong passion and an honor I never take for granted.
Below is my very first legal wedding ceremony, officiated in Orlando, Florida a moment that marked the beginning of my journey.
Looking back, it’s incredible to see how one message led to a journey rooted in love, trust, and meaningful connection. From my first ceremony to every one that followed, I’ve carried the same intention—to create ceremonies that feel real, personal, and true to the couples I serve.
