... make an occasion out of being alive!
The ones who stay until the party ends. Who sit in the driveway until the song is over. Who light the candles, put on a record, open the good wine, and dress up just because.
The ones who know that sometimes the smallest moments deserve the grandest gestures.
If this is you, you're my kind of people.
My couples are the ones who...
I'm Cody. I make photographs and films, read rooms quickly, and care a probably unreasonable amount about the people in them.
I spend a lot of my free time creating, curating experiences (both professionally and personally). diving into people's stories because human connection lights me the f*ck up, going to concerts, cooking elaborate meals with my equally romantic partner, hanging with my 7 year old mini me and my two dogs and traveling to places that make me feel alive.
I'm drawn to people who live life in a way that challenges convention, who dance in the kitchen like no one's watching and go have the adventure because that's what life is about: boldly LIVING and saying yes to all this crazy game of life.

To guide you enough so you feel confident in the process.
To let you enjoy your wedding day without turning into a photoshoot (duh)
To be so radically myself that you guys have no choice but to do the same.
To learn you, your story and what makes you both "you" enough to come into your day feeling inspired. The relationship you have with your photographer is EVERYTHING. Trust me.
I offer photography (both film and digital) as well as Super 8 inspired stop motion wedding films. You have the option to do either just photo or photo & moving moments.

WHAT DOES IT COST TO WORK WITH YOU?
WIll you travel?
WHAT ELSE CAN WE DOCUMENT?
WHAT’S YOUR APPROACH?
Both! I primarily shoot digital and bring in film when it makes sense. Film really shines in the right light, so I use whatever best serves the moment, the atmosphere, and you two. I also use film emulation in most of my digital work, so that timeless, nostalgic feeling is kind of baked into everything I make.

Absolutely! My work has taken me all over the world, and I’m always down. Travel is baked into my pricing, so you’re not getting hit with a bunch of random flights, hotels, and fees later. I’ve done this enough to know how to travel well with couples too — how to build in the right amount of time, find the good stuff once we’re there, and make the whole experience feel like part of the story instead of just logistics.

A lot, actually. Welcome dinners, time with your people, Story Sessions, the quiet stuff before and after the wedding — anything that feels like part of this chapter. I love when the photographs have enough room to tell the whole story, not just the part where everyone’s dressed up.

I pay attention first and step in when it helps. I’ll give you enough direction to keep things easy, help you settle into the moment, and then get out of the way so the day can actually happen. I’m always watching for the little shifts, interactions, and in-between moments that make the whole thing feel like yours. The goal is photographs that feel like your wedding — not a wedding built around photographs.

I take on a limited number of weddings per year (roughly 15).
Every wedding is different, so I like to tailor collections around what matters most to you. If you love the work and feel like we'd be a good fit, reach out! I'd love to hear what you're dreaming up.

Picking a wedding photographer can feel overwhelming, but from our very first call, Cody instantly felt like the right fit. Even from states away, his warm, relaxed energy made it feel like we were talking with a friend. By the time the wedding came around, we were genuinely excited not only to have him photograph it, but to have him there.
The day itself felt effortless. Cody gave direction when we needed it, but mostly created space for us to be ourselves while quietly capturing everything as it happened. We were completely comfortable around him, and the photographs ended up being better than we could have imagined. He’s incredibly talented, but just as importantly, he’s a genuinely kind person who made the whole experience feel easy.
Once you send this over, you’ll be taken to my calendar to grab a time for a quick 30-minute call. Nothing scary — I mostly want to hear about you two, what you’re planning, and see if this feels like a good fit.
