Local Photography in Charlottesville, VA

I have my own aesthetic when it comes to portrait photography. Rather than taking generic photos that everyone expects, I aim to collaborate closely with my clients and co-create moments that feel personal and meaningful. I have experience shooting a wide range of sessions, including wedding coverage, solo portraits, couple and best friend shoots, and graduation photos. My style is emotionally expressive yet timeless. I shoot with Fujifilm cameras, known for their unique film-like color profiles that elevate every image with a cinematic feel. If you’re looking for a photographer who values connection and creativity as much as composition, I’d love to work with you.

Classically trained with 15+ years experience in photo and video. My goal is to bring energy, excitement and a positive attitude to your day! Your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event. And it’s my belief that you should have a beautiful and timeless record of it. That's why I started Secretariat Media. My team and I use state-of-the-art equipment and a cinematic, documentary-focused approach to capture every emotion and detail of your day. From the vows and speeches to the first dance and bouquet toss, we make it our duty to capture every moment, every aspect of your day, and preserve it for you to treasure for years to come. Our films are much more than a record of your day - they are art. We carefully craft each edit to bring your love story to life and do our best to capture the essence of your relationship. We aren’t for everyone. But for those we work with, we commit ourselves to making the wedding film you’ve always dreamed of.
