—Wiens werk heeft u het meest beïnvloed als fotograaf?

—Susan Stripling.

—Hoe bent u beland in de fotografie-industrie?

—In 2004 I got a digital camera for Christmas, back when digital cameras weren't attached to every device. I was facinated with how you could freeze time, and then view the past later. I couldn't set it down. A few years later I shot my first wedding, fell in love with it and 10 years later have shot over 200.

—Bent u fotogeniek?

—Sometimes... If I've gotten enough sleep and have a glass of wine or two

—Wat zijn volgens u de belangrijkste elementen van een goede foto?

—A moment. For sure. If it doesn't have this it's not worth remembering. After that, certainly lighting and composition go a long way.

—Houdt u van reizen?

—Absolutely. We have traveled all over the world taking photos!

—Wat vindt u het leukst aan uw beroep?

—I love that every weekend I get to be a huge part of someone's "most important day of their life."

—Wat vindt u het minst leuk aan uw beroep?

—Hoe gaat u om met kritiek?

—I love it. As long as it is constructive it is one of the biggest gifts you can give to me.

—Wat ziet u de toekomst van fotografie?

—More and more instant gratification. A one month turn around average for a wedding will turn into a day.

—Waar maakt u zich zorgen over en waarom?

—I've found that the energy I've wasted in the past on worrying about things was better spent on just doing what I was supposed anyway. No regrets. No fear.

—Wat is er bijzonder aan het fotografiegenre waarin u zich specialiseert?

—The father of the bride that has never cried in public before. The look on the groom's face when he sees his bride for the first time. The uncle that doesn't normally drink is dancing up a storm on the dance floor.
