Honored and humbled are the only words that keep running through my head.
Last week it was officially announced that I was recently named one of American Photo Magazines Top 10 Wedding Photographers in the World for 2013. Not only to have been nominated, but to be awarded top 10 for the American Photo magazine annual award still blows my mind. There is nothing like this feeling. I do what I do for the love of the image, the moment, for telling stories visually and for the happiness of my clients. It is really nice to see others recognize that. Thank you so much for this amazing honor and a huge congratulations to the other 9 winners. I am truly very lucky to have an opportunity to do something I am passionate about and lucky enough to have clients that I not only treasure but also give me the access and trust to do what I do best. I would not be here if it was not for all of our amazing couples. Finally a huge thank you goes out to my photo friends and photo family over at the Foundation Workshops. They have all given me the support and more importantly education over the years allowing me to push myself and fine tune my craft. Foundation and Fearless Photographers continue to change the face of wedding photography allowing a style such as ours to rise to the top of the industry.
Thank you so much for this honor and I hope to do my colleagues that nominated me, my clients, and my family proud for 2013 and beyond!

Tyler,
Congratulations! The honor couldn’t have been bestowed on anyone but you. You completely deserve all your success. No one works harder than you and no one has a bigger heart than you.
