This is the part of the website where I think most photographers put very “cheesy” bios about themselves that rarely get read. As a result of that ineffectiveness, I figured I’d spare you the time. I’ll simply tell you what I like to do at weddings, events and photo sessions.

First, let me say that I am more of a photojournalist with an editorial flair. I specialize in that style of photography in my wedding, engagement and maternity sessions. My overall approach is to pose you naturally. I focus more on the connection, moments and emotions associated with your life changing events.

My Name is Edward,
Nice To Meet You

When I’m not chasing a child around in the hallways at school, I’m usually chasing one of my three sons around the hallways at home. Or they are chasing me! Either way, there’s a great deal of running involved. My oldest son, Jeremiah, is a proud “school-er”. My second oldest, Zion, is a complete practical joker. While my youngest son, Elijah, is definitely the charmer. Mackenzie is the baby girl, and she rules the house.

After all that, I’m left with just enough energy to chase bride and grooms around. I never forget that my role is for couples to look back at their most cherished wedding moments with sheer joy. I’m never satisfied until I do exactly what I promised. That is to capture your memories with total sophistication, elegance and class. I look forward to working with you.

My wife, Shae, is the sole reason I know that true love exists. We've been married since June 2014. After photographing all these beautiful weddings, my only regret about my wedding day is that we didn't write and exchange vows. Now, don't shed too many tears. I've been known to steal your heartfelt words and say them to my wife. You see, I vowed to marry her every day of my life. She's that awesome! I definitely married up with her! 

Seriously, I thought you would be long gone by the time you got here. If you are the average person, you’re definitely not reading this much. Since you are, I’ll share some more tidbits about the man behind the camera. I earned my Bachelors of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of North Florida, and my Master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Grand Canyon University. Throughout the day, I’m a full time Dean of Students at an elementary school. I love my job. Also, I love making an impact with students and helping them build good behavioral habits.

I believe this helps me with my photography, because I find that most people don’t really like taking photos. My experience as an educator provides me with a working set of experiences to draw from. Therefore, I’m able to get the best out of my clients. As a direct result, my clients are completely overwhelmed and satisfied when they view their finished images.
