Wedding planning is hard work. But I make this part easy as cake.

Slow it down. Soak it in. Live it fully.

You’re pouring your heart into creating a once-in-a-lifetime experience — every detail considered, the vibes impeccable, the joy palpable. You deserve to be fully present on your wedding day and enjoy the experience right alongside your favorite people without ever stressing about what comes next. 

Okay, but how do you get to all that goodness?

Hey. Hi. That’s where I come in.

I live for helping couples like you turn their wedding vision into the sort of photos that’ll still make them happy-cry years — decades! — later. I do that by connecting with you on a genuine level (aka, we become buddies), sharing all the resources + vendor recs to realize your dream day, creating a completely custom and FUN experience from start to finish, then delivering authentic storytelling that preserves the memories of your day.

Whew, okay, that’s a lot to take in. But the short story is: 
I’ve got you covered.

Ready to hear more?  

Your wedding day is made to savor.

So ready. Let’s do this! 

"The photos were more beautiful than we could have ever imagined."

“When we were looking though our photos it truly felt like we were reliving that amazing day. Simon really cares about his clients and takes time to get to know you. It felt like he was one of our good friends attending the wedding and hanging out with us. All of our guests were also impressed with how personable Simon was. He was an amazing addition to our wedding and we cannot boast about him enough ” - K+J

“From the first call we had with Simon, we knew he would be an amazing presence.”

“He creates a relaxed and calming atmosphere, and it felt like having another friend by our side. He keeps the mood light, and he was so kind to all of our guests. He also helped us organize the day so we'd be able to spend as much time as possible with our people. A lifetime of gratitude to Simon!” - E+D

“If you are considering working with Simon, just do it, he will blow your expectations out of the water.”

“When I first met with Simon, I knew that he would be incredible to work with, but when he arrived on the day of my wedding, I quickly realized that I was about to receive the most beautiful, thoughtful photos I could have ever asked for. He was the life of the party! I had so many people come up to me during our reception and tell me that they had never seen such a personable and fun photographer and they could not wait to see the photos.” - H+A

Most people are! (including me). You don’t have to worry about a single thing. Not only will I be directing, “soft posing” and guiding you through the entire photo session, but I’m also a super laid back person/photographer and I always provide an experience that will help you relax and enjoy yourselves. Seriously, within minutes of working with my couples, it always feels like we’re old friends. And my photo sessions just organically turn into laid back, fun hang-outs (with a camera). Above all, I’m going to make sure you look natural and fantastic, feel completely comfortable and have an awesome time.

My style adapts with every couple I photograph, but overall I’m always striving for a very candid and genuine feel to your photos. Also, I like to incorporate nature and vibrant colors whenever I can. I love contrasting grand, wide shots of the setting alongside close, intimate shots of the emotion and detail. My editing style is aimed at keeping things very true to how they appeared at the time. I simply wake up the light and colors to make your images pop, and then I add a slight “cinematic/romantic/celebratory” vibe. I believe it adds an intangible quality and character to the scene that feels more immersive and dramatic. My top priority is to make you look amazing and natural and beautiful, because you are.

You’ll get all of your photos back within 8 weeks of your wedding, and within 3 weeks for engagement sessions. You’ll receive a gorgeous private online gallery where you can view, share and download all of your crisp, hi-resolution, professionally edited photos. Plus, I always provide a healthy serving of Sneak Peek photos one to two weeks after your wedding so you can show off some sneaks on your social media and get excited about the rest of your gallery to come.
