Moving to Paris has felt like coming home — the art, beauty, and a rich cultural heritage has always inspired me. As a photographer, few places feel more electric and alive than Paris. Every street corner is a canvas. Every wedding here, a chance to create something timeless.
But before I started this new chapter, I had the incredible honor of photographing a wedding that still lingers in my mind — a summer celebration at Brentsville Hall in Virginia. It was elegant, emotional, and fashion-forward in every sense — and so many of the elements reminded me of what I now seek to capture in the heart of France.
Hyungin & Jimin: High School Sweethearts Turned Soulmates
Hyungin and Jimin’s story began in high school, and their connection was effortless from the start. Years later, surrounded by close friends and family — including loved ones who flew all the way from Korea — they celebrated a love that’s only deepened with time.
Their wedding day felt like a modern editorial dream: Jimmy Choo, YSL, Prada, and Manolo Blahnik all made appearances, and the guests were wearing everything from Gucci to Chanel.
What stood out most to me was the way the day seemed to balance emotion and sophistication. There was so much style — but even more heart.
Aesthetic Elegance Meets Intimate Emotion
From the lush summer light to the fashion-forward choices in every detail, Hyungin and Jimin’s day was filled with moments I’ll never forget. But the standout? The bridal portraits. Jimin had an effortless confidence that made every frame look editorial, yet still full of heart.
These are the kinds of images I strive for in every wedding I shoot — moments that feel beautiful and deeply personal.
From Virginia to Paris
Though the setting was Virginia, so much of this wedding felt like it could’ve taken place in Paris. The love of fashion. The understated elegance. The multicultural beauty of the day. It’s exactly the kind of atmosphere that makes photographing weddings here in Paris so thrilling.
Now based in the city of light, I’m bringing that same eye for intimate storytelling and editorial detail to weddings and elopements across Paris. From the golden rooftops of Montmartre to the quiet gardens of a hidden château — I want to help couples tell their story in a way that’s personal, stylish, and timeless.
