An honest note from the heart of Eleven Hearts Studios đź“Ť Serving Washington, D.C. | Los Angeles | Austin | Europe
Because the most powerful photos are the quiet ones. Let’s be honest — there are so many wedding photos in the world. Some are pretty. Some are trendy.
But the ones that stay with you? The ones that make you stop and feel something?
They’re different. They tell a story with heart and honesty — the kind that doesn’t need to shout to be heard.
That’s the kind of wedding photography I do.
So… what is “editorial wedding photography,” really?
You’ve probably heard the term editorial thrown around. To me, it simply means thoughtful and timeless.
I’m not here to stage your story. I’m here to see it — in the real, unguarded, beautiful ways it unfolds.
It’s things like:
A quiet look before the first kiss
The soft chaos of a wedding morning
That moment your veil catches the wind just so
Editorial wedding photography means capturing your day as it actually felt, but framing it like it belongs in an art book.
My background? Fashion, photojournalism, and fine art.
Before Eleven Hearts, I worked across the creative spectrum — photographing fashion stories, studying classical painting, and telling real-world stories as a photojournalist.
It’s shaped how I see weddings:
The light matters
The emotion matters more
The edit matters most of all
I don’t just deliver photos. I deliver atmosphere, texture, and memory — preserved with care.
Home base: Washington, D.C. → Worldwide
D.C. is where it all started — and where I still photograph some of my favorite venues:
🕊️ Tudor Place
🏛️ Meridian House
🌸 Cherry blossom elopements along the Tidal Basin
But my work also travels. Recent weddings have taken me to:
Los Angeles rooftops and desert light
Austin for stylish backyard affairs under big skies
Tuscany for sun-drenched vineyard celebrations
And even Tokyo, where intimacy met tradition
Wherever your love takes you, I’ll follow — quietly, intentionally, and with a camera that sees your story as art.
Are we a good match?
You might be my kind of couple if:
You love natural light and unexpected moments
You care more about how it feels than how it looks
You want your wedding photos to feel like your favorite film stills
You’re planning something a little bit different, a little bit you
Let’s make something timeless.
Whether you’re planning an intimate D.C. elopement or a destination celebration in Europe, I’d love to hear your vision. Let’s create wedding photographs that feel like memories and look like poetry.
