Saturday I had the honor to capture Cheyenne and Joes wedding.  It was my first time working at Top of the Hill Farm Venue and it is one of my new favorites!  So much character and opportunity for creativity.  Cheyenne and Joe hired me for their engagement shots and we had a great connection since Cheyenne is a photographer herself.  I appreciate her trust knowing what it’s like on my side of the camera.  This was a hot one but man these images just begin to tell what was captured.  So much love, fun, style and class.  Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Heins

Wedding magazine cover featuring elegant barn photoshoot with romantic lighting.

This was the first wedding that I'd shot, that my work was published.  There was a submission request from Stellar Exposure Magazine for a Bride and Groom themed issue.  I submitted it and shortly after got notified it had been selected.  When they sent me the link, was when I discovered it made the front cover.  I was blown away, flattered, literally shouting in my living room.  In the months and years after ive been published and made the cover a number of times more, but this was my first and it still means a lot to me.
