Hello, I'm Derek
Wedding Photographer & Cinematographer
For me, photography isn’t about posing people or chasing trends. It’s about catching the real stuff — the light that hits just right, the quiet moments that most people miss, the feeling you get when you look back and remember exactly where you were.
My approach
 
I shoot in any enviroment, blending color and emotion into images that tell stories on their own. Every photo is edited by hand, built from scratch, and finished with the same care I’d give my own memories.
Whether I’m climbing a trail with my camera, shooting within the city lights, or documenting life as it happens, the goal stays the same — to create work that feels real.
 
Kind words from

Derek photographed our five-day wedding and exceeded every expectation. He was professional, calm, and endlessly dedicated. Derek was always early, always prepared, and completely in tune with our ceremonies. He went above and beyond to make sure every important moment was captured beautifully. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.
