Joel & Danie: Married April 25th, 2026

On an overcast April afternoon in Arlington, Joel and Danie gathered with 60 of their closest friends and family members at The Arlington Treehouse to celebrate their wedding day. From exchanging vows on the outdoor patio to the bubble sendoff that concluded the evening, the entire day was shared with the people closest to them. Forecasted rain held off throughout the ceremony and portraits, giving the couple a calm spring backdrop for a celebration focused on genuine connection.

Joel and Danie walked down the aisle and exchanged vows beneath the trees, joined by friends and family seated throughout the patio. Their reception carried that same intimate energy into the evening as guests packed the dance floor indoors above the trees. During the parent dances, Danie spun their mother across the floor while Joel shared a quieter moment with his own mother, who paused mid-dance to hold his face and speak to him privately.

As a photographer whose work primarily centers on corporate events, brand storytelling, public relations, and commercial advertising, weddings like Joel and Danie’s are a reminder that the same documentary approach applies no matter the subject. Joel and Danie shared that my approach to PR and event coverage was a leading reason they wanted me to capture their wedding day. Whether photographing a brand activation, a company gathering, or an intimate wedding celebration, the goal remains the same: to capture moments as they candidly happen and preserve them for posterity. Joel and Danie’s wedding at The Arlington Treehouse was filled with exactly those kinds of moments.

DYNEX Technologies + PROGEN

You surely know me for crafting polished still imagery for brands and commercial clients, but you might be surprised to learn that I bring the same precision, narrative, and compelling visual impact to motion; like this recent promotional video I produced for DYNEX Technologies, showcasing their medical laboratory testing equipment and announcing a new industry partnership.

DYNEX has trusted me to capture stills for their marketing and leadership for years, so when they approached me to film this promotional spot, I was excited to be entrusted with the creative freedom to bring their script to life.

After the usual planning and scouting, all shots were completed in one full day of filming, including all scripted imagery along with B-roll vital to tying all shots together.  Post-production was carried out in collaborative stages, and was completed in time for DYNEX to exhibit the promo alongside live product demos at tradeshows to begin the year announcing their new partnership with PROGEN.  This project also provided the pleasure of once again working with a voice actor in addition to the on-screen talent.

Videography is a creative and technical skill I love being able to exercise in visualizing my perspective and share it with the World.  2025 was my most videography focused year in recent history; looking forward to the next vivid video project!

Woods • Peacock: Headshots and Office Work

Over the years, I’ve captured thousands of headshots for individuals and businesses alike, and while it’s true a great headshot is often your first impression, it’s only one piece of a strong visual brand. To truly market your business, you need a diverse library of imagery that helps clients understand who you are, how you work, and what sets you apart. Authentic photographs of your team in action, your workplace environment, and the day-to-day energy behind your company create a more complete story than a single portrait ever can.

Recently, Woods • Peacock, an architecture firm I’ve photographed for more than a decade through headshots, completed projects, and event coverage, reached out as they prepared for a website redesign. The goal was to expand their visual library with fresh imagery that reflected their people, culture, and the collaborative work happening inside their office. These updated brand images give them versatile content for their new website, marketing materials, and future communications, helping ensure their brand is represented consistently, professionally, and with personality.

IAD Rainbow Approach

If you’re reading this, surely you know by now that aviation is in my bones.  A fun fact that’s less obvious about me is I like rain, especially thunderstorms; I find rain relaxing and thunderstorms exciting, beautiful, fun (though I’m notably more fearful of being struck by lightning than my stormchaser friend).

Living in IAD’s airspace is charming to me, so after a rather severe Summer storm last year, when a rainbow developed and the groundstop lifted, I was able to capture numerous aircraft in line to finally get on the ground, with the vibrant colors providing an unforgettable backdrop.

The rainbow only lasted maybe 10-15min, so only a handful of aircraft were lucky enough to dart across the perfect scene.

2014 BMW 4 Series

During a recent car photoshoot, someone driving by in a BMW 4 Series saw me photographing a vehicle, and asked me to shoot theirs too - I told them I’d shoot one photo and had to continue on with what I was working on, and this is that photo.
