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.

These fleeting days… the giggles, the chaos, the tiny arms wrapped around you — they don’t stay little forever.

I’m so grateful to capture these sweet, real moments for families like this one — clients who have become friends over time and whose beautiful babies I’ve had the joy of photographing again and again.

There’s nothing quite like being in the photos with your little ones — hands full, heart even fuller. 

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, now is the perfect time to step in front of the camera and celebrate the beautiful, wild, and precious bond you share. 💝

If this is the sign you’ve been waiting for to book a session, here it is. ☺️

Turning a parking lot into a fairytale scene? Just another day in the life of a wedding photographer.
This reel is a little peek behind the scenes + the final magic from one of the hottest, most humid days in June (I was drenched, not even kidding).
But the challenge? The pressure? The thrill of creating something beautiful out of nothing? That’s exactly why I love this job.
Weddings keep me on my toes, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Watching families grow and capturing their most special moments is such a joy, and this session truly filled my heart! I photographed big brother as a newborn and one year old, and now I’ve had the honor of photographing him again – this time as a playful, silly, and oh-so-sweet big brother to his brand-new baby brother. 💙

For this session, I leaned into what I’ve been focusing more on as a photographer lately – creating newborn images that feel a little more relaxed, natural, and true to life. The snuggles, the giggles, the tiny moments that make these early days so meaningful. So there’s a good handful of those mixed in with the more posed shots.

This baby boy is already so loved, with parents who radiate joy and a big brother ready to be his lifelong sidekick. I’m beyond grateful to this wonderful family for trusting me again to capture their beautiful, growing story. Welcome to the world, baby boy – your adventure starts here!
