Ever received a wedding invitation and immediately Googled what “Black-Tie Optional” or “Dressy Casual” really means? Or wondering what to tell your guests to wear? You’re not alone! Dress codes can feel confusing, but they’re actually helpful clues to making sure guests feel confident and appropriately dressed for the couple’s big day.

As a photographer, I've always been drawn to the interplay between elements in a setting and how they interact with the colors and style of a photograph. Every wedding or session presents an opportunity to create visual harmony by carefully selecting and positioning elements within the frame, paired with the setting to create stunning and cohesive compositions.
