My Story

Before photography, I worked as a freelance artist, and a nanny. I loved painting for my friends, and giving pieces as gifts. Making art was a true passion of mine. As time progressed it became less and less practical to stay consistent with. I wanted to find a profession that would allow me to use my creativity, and be able to provide for myself. My good friends suggested I try photography, I wasn’t sure about the idea at first, but I’m so glad I took up their offer. I started my business fall, 2021. Since then, I’ve been working hard to create a loving and enjoyable experience for my clients!

Why Weddings and Family Photography?

I’m fascinated with beauty. I've dedicated my eye to grab hold of beautiful things, and somehow preserve it with simple tools like composition, contrast and storytelling. For me, people are the most beautiful thing to photograph. While I do love the majesty of a wide and overwhelming landscape, I can’t seen to connect with the image as well as I do with people. From time to time I do love bringing my camera on vacations to capture ominous, still, moments from strictly nature. 

I chose to photograph people because I find relationships, emotion, and experiences more interesting and personal to me than a mountain or a product. I find in photography, it’s very hard for me to capture things that don’t talk. I like to interact with my subjects. I like to work together, to create pieces that feel new, stylish and have a sense of authenticity. 

Non-Photography Facts About Me

I’ll be getting married this May, to my wonderful fiancé. It’s been such a happy time and I’ve loved seeing another perspective into the wedding world!

My favorite color is red. It’s such a strong, powerful color! I love working it into my compositions if I can.

I can make a pretty good french silk pie.

If I’m not photographing a wedding or editing a gallery, you will most likely find me with loved ones or working hard in some other creative outlet. Painting, leading worship with my friends, going on hikes, and spending time with my family are just a few ways I love to spend my free time!

Me and my fiancé, Lucas.
