about
THE ARTIST
With over 19 years of experience photographing people (which is basically my entire adult life), to say that I live and breathe photography would be an understatement. I cannot imagine doing anything else. It's who I am and my true passion in life.

All my life I’ve loved taking photographs. And I thank my parents for giving me my first camera as a kid and letting me take roll after roll of film. Through this creative freedom I developed such a love for the art of photography in its entirety. Portraits, landscapes, candids, they all excite me. Each is a way of capturing a moment, a memory, a look that will never happen again. This is the reason I love photography so much. It gives one the ability to share moments in time at any moment in time. Photographs are timeless, vivid representations of memories.
I would love to share my love of photography with you by capturing your life’s special moments. Our lives are ever changing and the people in them are growing and changing everyday. Your wedding is a special event in your life and you don’t want to forget all the details and excitement that surrounded the day. Your children seems to grow over night and getting those candid moments and funny faces on film are the only way to ensure your memories of those early days don’t fade. Family portraits are also a great way to preserve the ever changing stages and share your pride as a family.
For whatever occasion or moment in your life, I’d like to help capture it for you through photography. It is my pleasure to be behind the camera lens as your life unfolds.

I BELIEVE
We are all beautiful in our own way. And the way we connect with others is even more beautiful. My passion is capturing the connection we have with our world and the people most important to us.

Sometimes the best photos are the simplest ones.
If you’ve been wanting updated portraits but haven’t wanted anything themed, styled, or overthought — this is your sign.
This Saturday’s Love Mini Sessions can be:
• Clean + classic
• Neutral + timeless
• Just you (or your people) as you are
No Valentine’s backdrop required.
Same quick session, same ease, same heart behind it.
And yes — well-behaved pets are welcome with approval, because they’re family too 🐾
A rare chance for quick, meaningful studio portraits — without committing to a full session.

Perfect weather.
A gorgeous Carriage House setting.
An adorable couple completely in love.
This wedding day in Cedar Rapids had it all 🤍
Sharing a few favorite sneak peeks from a truly beautiful celebration ✨
Six months old and already full of joy 💙
John gave me the biggest smiles, the cutest little expressions, and the most sparkly blue eyes during his milestone session.
That bear snow cap? Unreal. 🐻
These are the moments that make my heart so full - happy, wiggly, personality-packed memories frozen forever.
Scroll through and tell me you didn’t smile. 🥰
Six months old and already stealing hearts. 🤍
Halston came back for her milestone session after her newborn photos and made me work for those smiles — but wow, was it worth it. From sweet family snuggles to cozy moments by the Christmas tree, every frame feels like a little time capsule of this season.
Already counting down to her one-year session. ✨
Not AI. Not filters. Not a fantasy.
Just a real woman, real confidence, and a little holiday sparkle. ✨
With all the “perfect” images floating around online lately, I want to gently remind you of this — you don’t need artificial intelligence to feel powerful, beautiful, or confident in your own skin.
Boudoir isn’t about looking like someone else.
It’s about seeing yourself clearly — strong, soft, sensual, and worthy, exactly as you are.
Winter is my favorite season for boudoir. The studio is cozy, the light is beautiful, and sessions feel slower, more intentional, and deeply personal.
If you’ve ever thought, “Maybe someday,” consider this your sign. 🤍
I’m now booking winter boudoir sessions.
It’s not too late! I have a few Holiday Mini spots left for this weekend only (Saturday + Sunday!).
Perfect for Christmas cards, gifts, or updated family photos.
These will go quick — book your slot while you can! ❤️🎄
