• let’s be pals! I’m A LITTLE ON THE EXTROVERTED SIDE, SO I LOVE MAKING NEW FRIENDS. IT’S ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT BEING A PHOTOGRAPHER; ALL OF THE INCREDIBLE PEOPLE I GET TO CONNECT WITH IS TRULY AMAZING!

  • I'm A FIERY Leo, MY MOON CHILLS IN TAURUS, WHILE THE REST OF MY CHART LEANS HEAVY WITH SOME BOSS Capricorn ENERGY.

  • my mental health is my priority. & sometimes I open up about that kind of stuff…but I’m always here to support those who need an unbiased ear to open up to.

  • self expression is just my whole jam. I love to write, decorate, & paint.

  • I am a personal & professional development junkie! in my downtime, I am usually deep into some sort of business course or guided journal activity of sorts!

  • most days you'll find me hanging with my girls & our cats! yes, I am a crazy cat lady & proud of it!

  • I Loooooveeeee small business! but moreso the human behind the small business…I’m the type of person who prefers to spend time with those who inspire & I just love supporting my fellow makers, creators, & doers.

  • I am a foodie, give me a big, juicy cheeseburger from 571 Tap house & grill, some boneless wings from Rooster’s, or fried pickles from anywhere & watch my eyes sparkle!

  • I am forever a student myself when it comes to photography…

  • my signature photography style is emotive, timeless, rich, dreamy, moody, bright, fun, energetic, & empowering. & it’s ever-growing. much like myself.

  • but that’s just the surface of why my work is “fill in the blank” - I am fiercely empathetic, my soul just loves making connections, & I take the time to get to know my clients on a deeper level that allows an intuitive openness that creates magic on a shoot! this is my signature.

  • I am a professional volunteer comedian in my free time & I tell the best dad jokes. I am also incredible at being awkward & then making myself even more awkward by calling myself out on my awkward….like that….

  • I don’t think we should be forcing anything in life, so let’s not force this session. let’s not force the flow, the kids to sit still & smile at the camera, dad to stop being a class clown, or the dog to stop trying to play with the kids while we are trying to snap a family portrait….when you say it like that, you realize what all you’re actually wanting to freeze in time… 

  • we believe in community over competition around here. if you’re a photographer or an aspiring photographer, let’s connect!

  • I carry that energy in all areas of my life! i’m a solid hype girl to have in your corner. at the end of the day, we are all just walking each other home.
