authentic wedding photography


My work is meant for couples who want their photos to be an accurate representation of their day as it happened. As you read through the different sections on my website you'll notice a constant theme; I believe the entire point of photography is to preserve life highlights. As wedding photography trends are ever changing, true to life editing is always in style. I believe natural moments and authentic colors create a wedding album that becomes a documentary through photographs.

 

Hey, I'm Eugene

A wedding photographer from Cleveland, Ohio. Before I found my passion in wedding photography, I just wanted to take better photos in nature. The only souvenir I wanted to bring home from my National Park trips was a magazine worthy photo. Rather than do the logical thing and purchase prints from a professional photographer I decided to spend an absurd amount of time and money learning how to do it myself. Capturing my own life highlights was my initial inspiration to pick up a camera; realizing that I could capture life highlights for others will always be what inspires my business.

My approach

Many photographers will boast about where their work has been featured. You have probably read "as seen in" on several websites and bios by now. I'm not mocking that, having your work featured is an outstanding accomplishment and I would be honored to see my photos in a number of publications.


That being said, there is one place that I want my work to be featured more than anywhere. Your home. I have one day to capture photos that will grace the walls of your home for decades to come, that is a responsibility I do not take lightly.


The approach that I bring to a wedding day consists of a mix of traditional wedding photography and modern photojournalism. This is the best of both worlds and ensures you get back a gallery that has posed photos with everyone thats important to you along with candids throughout the day. Often times the best photos are one that you didn't even know were taken.
