Hi I am Tori
...the girl behind the camera!
What started as a hobby when I was younger has now become my obsession + full-time career. I’ve had the chance to photograph weddings all over the united states.
One thing I say WAY too much is YOLO. You only have 1 life. Yes, 1 life, I'm sorry to break it to ya. So live it to the absolute fullest. Do things that make you happy and surround yourself with people who bring you joy.(I live by this!)
I would say accurately fit the "oldest child role" which actually a fun fact about me because the oldest in my family. I have the type A personality stereotype and at the end of the day my goal is to bring smiles & peace to everyone around me. When everyone around me is happy, I am too!
I have lived in Arizona my entire life and I have never been more grateful to call it my home.
Your wedding day is your day to show your love story. My approach to capturing a wedding is very documentary style of photos. I am there to document every little moment, every hug, every tear, and every kiss. Each couple I work with prefers quality over quantity. Wouldn't you prefer to have 1 crumble cookie over 5 from dollar tree? They also tend to crave intentional connections which is not very common in this world nowadays.
I have had my camera in my hand for about 5 years now, and I wouldn't want it any other way. And can I tell ya something? I LOVE what I do. I feel like I won some sort of lottery or cracked the code of who I was meant to be, because I couldn’t imagine a better role for myself. It’s a freaking blast. I get to attend these luxurious, magical, joy-filled wedding days filled with people like YOU and the people you love, and capture it all. YES PLEASE.
I'm not like everyone else
to be completely honest,
When I am not behind my camera I am...

why i became a photographer
Photos are what I look back on to feel all of the same feelings I felt when I look back at a memory that was photographed. Unfortunately, photos and videos are all we have to re live memories. Ever since i was 5 years old i would always take photos on a phone to document the little memories on vacations etc. A photo to me has never been a photo it's been a permanent memory.
