An hour by the water for the people who matter. Up to four guests, one good photographer, no agenda beyond getting it right. I direct lightly and stay out of the feeling — you won't pose so much as get caught being yourselves. Good for the moment you want to keep but don't want to stage. The kind of picture that ends up framed, not buried in a camera roll. Edited files within the week.

Three hours, up to six people, room to relax into it. We go wherever the day is happening — the house, the park, the place that means something to you. I shoot the in-between moments most cameras miss, not just the lineup everyone braces for. Enough time that nobody's checking a watch. You get the day as it actually felt, edited and ready, instead of forty near-identical phone shots nobody wants to sort through.

Half a day for the gatherings that don't happen often. Up to 10 people, more than one location if you want it, and enough time that the day can breathe. We catch the posed shots and the real ones both — the hugs, the laughing, the kid who won't sit still. Built for the days you'll talk about later. You leave with the whole arc, not a handful of stiff portraits. The version of the day worth holding onto.

A full day for the big gatherings. Large groups of about 20 people, full coverage, start to finish, no rushing the moments that don't announce themselves. I shoot the planned parts and the quiet corners both. By nightfall we've got the whole story — every face, every table, the stuff people forget happened until they see it again. This is the day your people keep coming back to. Delivered as a complete set, edited and yours to keep.
