Hey, I’m Stan!
A newspaper photojournalist turned documentary wedding and family photographer. I’m 6’7” (yes, I played college basketball), I married my high school sweetheart after 15 years of dating, 4 of which were long distance, and I love teaching my Australian Labradoodle puppy circus animal tricks!
Grab some unsweetened iced coffee or maybe a margarita. Enjoy my recent work, helpful wedding education, wild family stories, and even some personal notes.
