If you would have known me in high school, you would have been surprised if I didn’t eventually become a professional photographer —or at least something that justified the massive collection of photographs all over my bedroom walls.
I started out shooting film way back before digital was a thing, and I have a Master's Degree in Photography. I particularly love black and white documentary photography and abstract fine art. I initially did not imagine myself ever photographing weddings, but after the first one, I was hooked!
Obsessed with photography since 1998
About Lisa
Photographs have the power to evoke memories and feelings long after they are taken, and that in itself, is very meaningful to me.
For me, creating beautiful images is a delicate balance between science and sorcery. Capturing those fleeting moments that say, "I'm human, and I have feelings," but in a visually appealing manner.
What I Do
THE HEART BEHIND
I enjoy problem solving and puzzles, and I’m always up for a good challenge! Until I shot my first wedding, I didn't realize how perfectly weddings were suited for me.
Finding the best light or, in its stubborn absence, manufacturing it from thin air, is a task I enjoy. Arranging my couples isn't just about making them look their best; it's about turning them into living, breathing pieces of art—art that occasionally blinks or needs a break to touch up makeup.
Why Weddings?
When my husband and I were married, it was a strange feeling to be on the other side of the camera as a wedding photographer. Luckily many of my best friends are talented wedding photographers. We passed some cameras around during the day, which made it difficult to tell who took what photo, but I love them all. Of course, I couldn't resist the urge to take some photos myself!
