Behind the Lens

I grew up in a world of improvised songs, animated characters brought to life by my dad, and storylines that pulled me in from books and TV. Storytelling was everywhere, and as a result, my childhood dreams always centered on creativity—actor, author, singer, director. Never the usual suspects like doctor or teacher. I just knew I wanted to tell stories that made people feel something.

At one point, I thought that meant scriptwriting in Hollywood. But life had other plans, and eventually, that desire to tell honest, human stories brought me here—photographing real people on one of the most meaningful days of their lives.

That storytelling instinct is what drives my documentary style today. I approach each wedding with curiosity, care, and a focus on letting the day unfold as it truly is. I pay attention to the moments in between, and I use what I learn about each couple to craft portraits that feel like them—not just beautiful images, but pieces of a larger story.

My photography journey began in 2016 at a creative arts school—where Daniel and I met and founded KD Captures. We’ve been telling stories together ever since.

Fluent in sarcasm, lovers of nature, travel, and mixed drinks, and fans of vibrance and light.

Our approach to wedding photography is all about balance—the kind that makes space for both the loud, joy-filled moments and the quiet, tender ones. We believe your love story deserves to be told in a way that feels true to you, which is why we take the time to really get to know you. That connection is what helps us capture both the big celebrations and the small in-between moments with equal heart.

Every gallery we deliver is shaped by curiosity, care, and an eye for what makes your relationship one-of-a-kind. From the way your partner looks at you during the vows to the way your friends throw their heads back laughing during toasts—it all matters. Your wedding photos shouldn’t just look beautiful; they should feel like you.
