Every Failure is a Lesson. If you are not willing to Fail, You’re not ready to Succeed.

I’m the Owner & Photographer for Total One AP Photography working and living in Raleigh, NC. I’m not really a ‘bio’ kind of person, but I will do my best. I am a born and raised Hoosier from Indianapolis, Indiana, but moved to Raleigh with my family a few years ago to escape the cold. I absolutely love my family which includes my beautiful wife who isn’t just a mother of our amazing two children, but also a therapist and my trusty partner in photography! You will definitely get a chance to meet her since we take pride in our amazing husband and wife team!

I am also a total geek and very proud of it. I will talk about anything dealing with computers, cybersecurity, anime, comics, and anything photography! I am very passionate about my work and love capturing your perfect day. With over 4 years of professional photography experience, I fell in love with photographing; the joining of two becoming one, from engagement to the wedding day, has been my favorite time to capture.

I love being able to give someone memories about a special moment in time that they will be able to see again and again. It isn’t just taking pictures to me….it’s capturing the essence and the emotions behind the pictures. My favorites are the ones you don’t even know I am taking…the ones you did not pose for, but when you see them you light up because that moment was actually caught!
