The heart and creative behind Elle Studios.

Photography has always been more than an art form for me; it’s how I honor love, emotion and human connection. With over a decade of experience, I’ve learned that the most meaningful stories aren’t forced. They’re felt, protected, and captured with intention.

My work is rooted in presence and emotional awareness. I’m drawn to the moments that feel honest, tender, and deeply human — and I shape them with an editorial eye so they become timeless, not trendy.

Working alongside couples during one of the most meaningful chapters of their lives is a responsibility I take seriously. I lead with quiet confidence, offer gentle guidance when needed, and create space for real moments to unfold naturally.

All you have to do is be present.

MY STORY

Your wedding is not a performance — its a living, emotional, once-in-a-lifetime gathering.

My role is to protect that space.

I move through your day with intention and intuition — guiding when needed, stepping back when it matters, and always watching for the moments you’ll want to remember. From the pacing of your timeline to the way portraits unfold, everything is designed so you can stay present while your story is quietly preserved.

Couples often tell me they didn’t just feel photographed — they felt held.
I don’t just document what happens — I see what matters.

My work is rooted in emotion, composition, and intuition. I’m drawn to the in-between moments: the way your hands find each other, the quiet before a first look, the subtle glances that say more than words ever could.

At the same time, I guide you with a refined, editorial eye — posing you in a way that feels natural, confident, and unmistakably you. I create space for you to move, breathe and connect, while shaping the moments so they feel effortless, beautiful, and magazine-worthy without ever feeling staged.

The result is a dynamic gallery that feels both honest and elevated — images that carry emotion, artistry, and a quiet sense of luxury all at once.
These images are not for today.
They are for the rest of your life.

Long after the flowers are gone and the music fades, your photographs become the way you return to this moment — to the way it felt to be in love, to be surrounded by the people who mattered most.

This is the heart of my work: creating heirlooms that carry your story forward, so it can be felt again and again, for generations.
