With an emphasis on people, not poses.
Photographs allow us to remember what we hold dear. They prompt us to slow down for a moment to appreciate how precious each day we have the privilege of spending with our loved ones really is. The souls we are ultimately tied to. I believe the little, everyday events in our lives are just as significant and valuable as anything else. Maybe even more. I have a sincere heart for others and earnestly invest in knowing the real you, who you love and how you arrived exactly where you are. Whether you are bringing home your brand-new baby or dreaming up your perfect wedding day, I would love to tell your story with emotion, honesty and delicate intention. After 12 years, 140 weddings and hundreds of families later–I am still excited, in awe of the intricacies in our relationships, and why they all matter. My approach isn’t complicated. I sincerely connect, build genuine trust, learn your story, and then tell it with all my heart.
Love Notes
As we age and our memories fade, I truly believe reliving a moment in time can be achieved by looking at a photograph. When I look back on my photos from Jordan, I can remember the exact moment. What a gift.

Hi There, Friends!
A lot of my life has been devoted to this art, and if you have ended up here, there is a reason for it. Life is overflowing with tiny, monotonous events that add up and eventually lead us to the monumental ones. And they all matter. But, those moments full of love and humanity that stop you in your tracks and remind you to savor life—those are the ones you’ll close your eyes and still see. And feel. When every other detail is long forgotten, those frozen seconds will remain, always reminding you of how it began, why you chose your person and how you arrived right where you are. The heart of my business is pretty simple. I want to care for and love others by allowing them to feel truly seen. The weight of that responsibility is one I have never, and will never, take lightly. I started my career as a photographer over a decade ago and can honestly say there was no other road for me. Whether my clients are planning a secret proposal, eloping at the top of a mountain, bringing home their new baby, or running down the aisle after proudly saying their vows–I find the romance in all of it. I am invited in to witness and preserve the most paramount, impactful moments another human being could ever experience. What an honor.
