Photography heirlooms for all milestones of your life


Hey there, adventurer. I am a timeless fine art elopement, wedding and portrait photographer serving from Burnsville, NC- all of WNC and beyond.

I have a deep love for nature, candid moments and epic surroundings.


Ethereal- (adjective) Extremely delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world.


Documenting the joyful and loving emotions and organic connections between you and your loved ones is what draws me to fine art and candid photography. I want to illustrate the depth and intimacy that y'all share in a timeless style. I also try to let your personalities and relationship together guide the way that I photograph you. All couples and families are unique, and I want your photos to feel and look like you. My photography process includes some traditionally posed photographs, but I don't concentrate solely on them. They are just a formality that I want to document. The real essence of my work lies in my ability to capture organic, ethereal moments. When decades have passed, and you look back at your album, prints, and canvases I want every glance to revoke significant feelings and memories. I want you to have something far more precious than anything else, your love, and your memories. Preserved. Forever. 


"If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.


Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.


Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."

1 Corinthians 13
