"Colton created the images of our actual dreams."
As a hybrid fine-art photographer, I have the unique ability to perfectly balance the use of digital and film techniques in order to capture your unique love story. I specialize in providing services for luxury weddings in Newport, Rhode Island, Sarasota, Florida, and worldwide.
behind the lens
As a Newport wedding photographer with more than 11 years of expertise, I have had the honor of capturing the most intimate and memorable moments of more than 280 weddings. My early interest in photography has been a driving force in my creative process ever since. Specializing in natural light, fine-art wedding photography throughout Southeast New England and Florida, I fuse both digital and film mediums to craft timeless, high-quality images. This combination allows me to capture the precision and flexibility of digital photography while bringing the unique texture and depth of film, resulting in images that will be cherished for a lifetime.
