One of the things I care most about on a wedding day is making sure my couples and their families feel comfortable, cared for, and completely themselves in front of my camera.⁠
⁠
That’s why Alexa’s review meant so much to me. She described my team as bringing a “genuine warmth and calm energy” that put her and her entire family at ease, and said everyone in the bridal party felt comfortable in front of the camera.⁠
⁠
Of course, we made sure to capture the formal family photos they needed. But I’m always looking for the moments that actually feel like the wedding: laughing with loved ones, stealing glances, the real stuff.⁠
⁠
Alexa said she’d recommend us to anyone looking for a photographer who “cares as much about the experience as they do the final product.”⁠
⁠
That’s exactly how I approach this work. The photographs matter deeply, but so does how you feel while we’re making them.⁠

I filmed these back in June while Nel Shelby, ashli bickford, and I were in Havana making “The Essence of Us: A Cuban Story” for The 92nd Street Y, New York.

Going to Cuba for the first time, working alongside Pedro Ruiz and the dancers of Malpaso Dance Company, and being immersed in their creative process was an experience I’ll never forget.

There’s something incredibly special about being in the room while artists are figuring things out, taking risks, solving problems, and creating something together.

👀 Watch the World Premiere of “The Essence of Us: A Cuban Story” at 92NY on September 19 at 7pm, with streaming access beginning September 20 at 12pm.

If you come in person on 9/19, you’ll see a bunch of my photos from this project featured in an exhibit! 📸

I hope you’ll join us!!

Happy to see my photographs of Circa Contemporary Circus’ "Wolf" featured in Greg Cook’s latest piece for Wonderland Magazine, covering the company’s U.S. premiere at Jacob's Pillow.

Always a thrill to photograph this kind of work, where strength, trust, control, and movement all come together in such extraordinary ways. 📸

Love seeing my photographs of Circa Contemporary Circus' "Wolf" featured in this thoughtful review by Alex Bloomstein for The Berkshire Edge, covering the company’s U.S. premiere at Jacob's Pillow.

A pretty incredible company to photograph, and an incredible piece to witness up close. So much trust, precision, risk, and physicality happening in every moment! 📸

Obviously, given a performance in a proscenium theater, this is not a Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey-type circus, not even close. Circa is circus performance reduced, in a way, to the most elemental of features: the acrobatic performers.

One of my favorite parts of photographing dance is being in the room while the creative process is happening.

Rehearsals give me a chance to soak up the creativity, watch ideas take shape, and let that process influence my own work. There are so many stories happening before the curtain ever goes up, and I think they deserve to be documented, too.

That’s one of the things I love most about the Vail Dance Festival. So many artists, styles, choreographers, and ideas are coming together at once, creating this incredibly unique environment for collaboration and discovery.
