When I searched for Catholic photographers in Montana, I couldn't find a single one. They were all "experienced in" Catholic weddings, but none of them said they themselves were Catholic.

WHY I ONLY DO CATHOLIC WEDDINGS

MY TESTIMONIAL

Ever since I started my business, I've been wondering how I can serve God with the talents I've been given?

After struggling with some moral dilemmas as a non-Catholic wedding photographer, I decided transitioning to only Catholic weddings was the best decision. And after discovering the lack of Catholic photographers in the entire state, it felt like I had found my niche.

John 3:16

"For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord"

Redirecting my business has been no easy task, and I've had to really learn to trust in the Lord, but He provides. I'm so excited to continue this journey providing quality service to fellow Catholics and being a witness to my faith at the same time.

WHY HIRE A PHOTOGRAPHER WHO'S CATHOLIC?

1. I understand the mass

Growing up Catholic, I know all the important moments to capture and also the times to stop shooting or to shoot as quietly/minimally as possible

2. Marriage is a Sacrament, and I know how to be reverent

3 REASONS

WHY YOU NEED A

CATHOLIC PHOTOGRAPHER

FOR YOUR CATHOLIC WEDDING

I try my hardest to provide as few distractions as possible. I've had people say they didn't even know I was there. I stand when you stand, kneel when you kneel, and overall try to be as reverent and respectable as I can be. Getting the shot is important, yes, but you'll never see me cut across the front of the aisle as a "quick shortcut" or get up in your face for your vows. Respect for the mass and the sacrament come first, "the shot" comes second

3. My love for Catholicism will show up in your photos

I was talking to a bride recently who was saying that she couldn't find any specifically Catholic photographers out there. She mentioned that when she saw my Catholic Ceremonies gallery, she could tell just how much I understood the beauty of the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony. My faith speaks through my art. I pay attention to the details and the symbolism. Your wedding gallery won't be just a documentary of the ceremony, it will be a collection of heartfelt imagery that represents you, your union, and your faith that ties it all together

While a non-Catholic photographer may have experience with Catholic weddings and be able to document the order of events, a Catholic photographer brings an elevated element to your gallery and overall experience.
