ABOUT TJ
I’m a traveling wedding & elopement photographer from Kansas City. My roots are in the midwest but I’m often on the move. I strive to photograph those who are madly in love. The non-traditional. Adventurous. Simple at heart. Your story is so worth capturing and being told. I love what I do because I get to document connection and creation all over the world. Small moments, big ones, it doesn’t matter to me. I get to be there for all of it and I think that’s pretty dang cool. My mission is to make timeless, emotion-filled, storytelling images all for glory of Jesus.
INSPIRATION
My inspiration stems from the Gospel of Jesus, my beautiful wife Emily, natural light, human interaction, travel, minimalism, athletics, coffee, local makers & entrepreneurs, the desert, fog, bonfires and simple living.
WHY I DO THIS
Truly, it’s for the love of people and new relationships. I get to spend time with strangers that inevitably turn into friends. Former clients are now some of my closest friends that Emily and I travel with, double date with, live life alongside, etc. There’s moments where I see printed wedding photos inside friend’s homes that I took. Totally surreal. What could possibly be more rewarding than that?
