When I started out as a full-time wedding photographer in 2008, I would have never in a million years imagined that I’d be given the title of award-winning photographer with so many prestigious awards for my work.

Don’t get me wrong, I have always had undeniable support from my family, friends, and clients, yet I am so humbled to be referred to as an award-winning photographer by these amazing photography establishments.
