AE Pictures Inc / Professional Photographer in Petaluma, California

My approach is two fold: responding to what is happening around me and directing what is around me. Yes, I will tell you what I think looks good, compose and direct. I love props and get very excited when a bride wants to have fun, quirky images! However, I will also remove myself from the director position and observe, responding to natural moments that are alive and moving. I love details and beauty and marvel in all the hard work you and your planners have done, capturing all of it for you to remember. My goal is to capture and create emotional imagery that is as unique as the people in them.
My approach is custom. When my clients hire me, it is not simply for one day. I take the time to meet with you, listen to your needs and understand your vision. By the time your big day comes around, you will have the piece of mind that you know what you are going to get. This extends to after the wedding and making sure your editing and printing is polished. Your experience from start to finish is custom to you.
