An incredible run - Thank you!

I have loved being a part of so many incredible moments over the past 25 years. What began as a favor to a high school friend by helping him film a wedding in the summer of 1999 turned in to a quarter century of capturing once-in-a-lifetime moments for over a thousand clients!

But as we know, all good things must come to an end.. Is it a true retirement? Not entirely. I still love shooting. I am changing up the way I do weddings and only covering smaller ones (up to 4 hours). Full day traditional wedding work is now referred to Amanda (www.amandanicolestudio.com) as she grows her wedding and portrait business.

We just moved in to our new studio and I will still be doing headshots and seniors. My corporate work has also increased significantly since 2022 and I’m really enjoying that too.

Thanks again for your support and I look forward to connecting with you in new ways in the future! Make sure and visit Amanda’s site if you need wedding work!
