I thrive on capturing raw emotion!! Over the last fifteen + years of photographing weddings, I have found one thing to be true... I am not the photographer for everyone.

From expectations, to personality, to photography style.. it all has to click. <3!!!

Years of taking the family vacation pictures my friends and family talked me into going pro so I took that scary first step. I am so glad I did. I have met some really sweet people and some I call friends. I just love taking pictures and when I see those photos on Facebook as profile pictures that's the best feeling.

As photographers, it’s our job to make sure that the amazing clients we serve feel seen during their sessions. It brings us so much joy to know that we get play a role in that moment.We’re the happiest traveling the world as a family, but a very close second is watching our bride walk down the aisle, basking in her glow, and knowing that we get to spend the rest of our lives capturing people on the happiest day of theirs.

I spent my childhood hanging out in my grandmother's garden collecting rocks, making mud pies, eating wild blackberries & taking pictures nonstop. I would spend my weekends with my mom to print all of my photos and hanging them on the pink walls of her bedroom, and telling everyone that I was a photographer. I went from taking pictures of the littlest details in nature, to capturing pure raw emotion, love, intimacy, and telling stories with my art. I became exactly who I wanted to be, when I was a little girl, and that’s exactly why I am so deeply in love and passionate about my job. I live for capturing the future nostalgia.
