I wake up every day genuinely amazed that this is what I get to call my work. When I’m not traveling the world filming weddings, I’m at home in Colorado with my wife, Liza — who is not only my partner in life but also my talented second shooter. Her warm, uplifting presence is a joy to have on a wedding day, and she has an incredible gift for capturing those subtle, in-between moments that couples treasure most.
We spend our days here with our dog, Forrest, editing wedding films and soaking in both the summers and winters of Colorado. On days off, you’ll find us hiking, fishing, camping, or skiing; being in nature is where we find true rest.
Life really does throw curveballs at you. I found myself quitting my engineering job years ago to move to an orphanage in Honduras, in hopes of finding greater fulfillment in my endeavors in life. My previous 9-5 only helped fuel my desire to find that which my heart most truly comes alive doing, and by quitting, I showed myself the true power of self and our ability to choose what lives we live. I returned home over half a year later with two major life changes: a completely different outlook on life, and a growing passion for videography.
Much has happened since then, and my journey to becoming a destination wedding videographer is one that I will always look back on with immense gratitude. Truly, I believe I am doing exactly what I should be doing with my life right now. I feel immense fulfillment in creating wedding films, and I would be honored to invite you into my amazing journey- telling the greatest love stories on earth.
In between quitting my job and moving to an orphanage in Honduras, I found myself on a two week road trip with a close friend around the United States. Inspired by videos on Youtube, I set off with a GoPro, an entry level camera, and a drone, hoping to make something that I enjoyed. Turns out, I was just scratching the surface of what would become an incredible passion of mine.
