I photograph weddings the way I wish more of them were remembered — with quiet light, a fashion pulse, and an eye for the small, unrepeatable moments that sit just outside the frame of a traditional wedding album.
Count in Threes is built for couples who've thought carefully about their day. The flowers were chosen for a reason. The dress is the right dress. The venue was a year of decisions. My work is to meet that intentionality with photographs that feel like the day itself: refined, unhurried, alive.
Over the last 7 years, I've photographed more than 275 weddings across the U.S. — part documentary, part editorial, always built around what's actually happening in front of me. My approach is calm and unhurried, so you can stay present in your own day while I work quietly around you. I'm based between Northwest Arkansas and Washington, DC, and I shoot weddings across both regions and beyond.
Off the clock, I'm a wife and mom to a goofball toddler, and someone who believes a wedding is one of the most generous things two people can do for the people they love. Because to me, photography isn't about transactions — it's about trust, connection, and creating something that will outlive trends and timelines.
On the wedding day, I work closely with the planners and creative partners who make it run — I believe the best wedding photographs come from a day that's well-held. My couples tend to be people who care deeply about design, who are building something personal rather than performative, and who want a photographer who can move through a wedding day without ever being the loudest thing in the room.
I'm endlessly inspired by historical architecture, fashion, and design, and I bring that same appreciation for detail into every frame I create. (I also have a soft spot for a great pair of heels and a timeless handbag — some habits never fade.)
My work has been featured in Style Me Pretty, Carats & Cake, Loverly, Wezoree, and 100 Layer Cake, and I've photographed at venues including The Ringling, Race & Religious, and The Hermitage Hotel.
As Count in Threes has grown, I've been intentional about who I bring into it — and Alex is someone whose eye and instincts I trust completely. He's my associate photographer and second shooter, there to make sure nothing gets missed on a full wedding day, and to capture the angles and quiet moments happening just outside my frame.
Some couples have Alex lead their day entirely. He's a genuinely gifted photographer who shoots with the same documentary heart and editorial eye that define Count in Threes.
I came to photography as an artist first. A camera was the tool that finally let me take a moment, or a detail, and hold onto it — and that's still what pulls me to weddings.
The weddings I love most feel lived in: where the details were chosen with care, where nothing is performative. My eye goes to the moments where emotion runs highest — the loud, room-filling joy and the quiet, tearful ones in equal measure. Photographs are how we relive those feelings later; my job is to make sure they're there to be relived.
I joined Count in Threes because the work felt like a kindred eye — the same attention to light, design, and the unrepeatable detail. Off the clock, I'm at home with my wife Jessica and our two corgis, usually with my hands in something: the garden, a craft project, whatever's in season. I think the instinct that makes a good photographer is the same one that makes a gardener: you have to actually look at what's in front of you.
