A Few Fun Facts About Me:

3. My husband and I are childhood sweethearts who have been together since we were kids.
4. I'm a die hard Swiftie and have followed Taylor's entire musical journey from the very beginning.
5. I'm the kind of person who puts Christmas decorations up the day after Halloween, because the holiday season can never come too soon.
6. My favorite color changes depending on my mood and what I'm feeling, but there's one color that will never make the list: yellow.
7. 90's movies are my absolute favorite, and I can quote them endlessly.

My approach
For me, photography is about so much more than getting the perfect photo. I want to capture the little things that make this season of your life yours. The way your kids laugh, the way you look at each other, the in between moments you might not even realize are happening.
I want your photos to feel like you. Authentic, fun, a little messy, and full of personality. I’m not here to make every moment feel perfectly posed or overly polished. I want you to be able to look back at your photos years from now and remember not just what you looked like, but what this season of life actually felt like.
Whether you’re welcoming a new baby, growing your family, celebrating a milestone, getting married, or simply wanting to document your people as they are right now, I want to give you photos that hold onto those memories for you.
The big moments matter, but so do all the little ones in between. Those are the moments I’m always looking for.
