July 10, 2023Worthy of his hire
Derrick wasn’t just punctual, he was there early to get all the shots before during and after my wedding. He didn’t skip any details during consultations and during the event and made sure you get what you were looking for. He worked well with the other venders. He is worthy of his hire.

As your videographer, I don’t just record moments — I craft them into a cinematic narrative that highlights the energy, personality, and connection of the day. I blend in seamlessly, capturing natural interactions and real expressions while also guiding you when you need support or direction.
As your photographer, my approach is warm, expressive, and detail-oriented. I focus on flattering lighting, genuine emotion, and relaxed posing that makes you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. No forced smiles — just real moments that look and feel like you.

Additional booking notes
I provide all essential professional camera, audio, and lighting equipment needed for both photography and videography services. My setup is adaptable to most venues, from intimate indoor spaces to large outdoor events.
Equipment Includes
Professional cinematic video camera(s)
High-resolution photography camera(s)
Stabilizers & tripods for smooth motion and steady shots
External microphones and on-camera audio capture
Portable LED lighting (used only when needed to maintain natural atmosphere)
Space & Lighting Needs
Ideally, access to areas with natural light is preferred for portraits and candid moments.
For indoor events or evening shoots, I may supplement with minimal lighting to preserve the ambiance while ensuring high-quality image clarity.
For ceremonies and staged moments, a clear line of sight to the subject(s) is helpful.
Audio Considerations (If Filming Speeches, Vows, or Interviews)
Access to the DJ or venue sound board is appreciated but not required.
If access isn’t possible, I can provide personal microphones for speakers or officiants.
Location Access
Please ensure I have permission to film or photograph at your venue.
For larger venues, I may arrive early to scout the space and determine optimal shooting locations.
Editing & Delivery
All editing is included with your booking unless otherwise specified.
Final photos and/or video are delivered digitally via a secure online gallery for easy downloading and sharing.
Turnaround time varies by project and will be discussed during booking.
