Hiring a second shooter can add additional angles and shots to your big day. I have curated a list of the best second photographer that currently use similar equipment and shoot in a similar style to myself.
(all images will be edited by myself)
I highly recommend hiring on a second photographer for getting ready shots, candid moments throughout your ceremony and reception! Especially looking to save time on your wedding day.

Wind, Rain, Snow, or Sun Shine - I'll be there for you. I always recommend embracing what mother nature provides for us. Some of my best photoshoots have come from the windiest of days. I would never want to put you, your significant other, pup or myself in harms way. If for any reason we agree to reschedule. This will be done so in writing per contract. Keep in mind if rescheduling were to happen due to a non weather incident a rescheduling fee may apply.
