My passion for photography began at the young age of ten, when I received my first camera. I was captivated by the ability to capture even the simplest moments of everyday life and to find their beauty. From family gatherings to quiet afternoons, I found joy in preserving the ordinary, discovering how much emotion and meaning could be hidden in the details. Over the years, my love for photography has deepened, not just for the craft itself, but for the way it connects me with people. Through photographing people's intimate stories, I’ve had the privilege of truly getting to know them, learning what they cherish most, and weaving their stories into visual memories. I've come to understand that storytelling through photography means stepping back and letting moments unfold naturally. On a wedding day, I prefer to be hands-off, offering gentle prompts rather than rigid poses, allowing couples to infuse each photo with their unique love and connection.
MEET THE PHOTOGRAPHER
At the beginning of my career, I thought my love for photography was found only within my camera. But over the years, I realized that was only half of it. I’ve jumped into lakes with someone I had just met, photographed intimate proposals where I was the only one there to witness the joyous tears of a soon-to-be bride, and cracked jokes with fathers of the groom at weddings. I’ve fallen in love with the people I meet and the memories I’m honored to capture for them.
Like any meaningful relationship, trust is essential. My ideal clients trust me wholeheartedly to capture their most cherished memories. I want them to feel comfortable being fully themselves, allowing me to photograph moments as they naturally unfold. With that trust, I’m able to bring my full creativity to their wedding day, crafting images that reflect both their story and my artistic vision. When that trust is there, everything falls into place naturally.
My faith inspires me in all aspects of my life, including photography. It guides me to see the beauty woven into both the world and the people around us. Whether it’s the intricate details in nature or the deeply meaningful moments shared between loved ones, I believe God’s creativity is present in it all.
I’ve been incredibly blessed to share a life with my husband, Jake—my best friend and the person I’m completely obsessed with. No one makes me laugh harder, and he’s helped me find myself and encouraged me to chase my life-long passions. Along with Jake, my two children have brought a new kind of inspiration into my life. From the moment I welcomed them into the world, I’ve felt an even deeper drive to pursue my creativity.
My photography style strikes a balance between capturing genuine, unscripted moments and crafting artful, editorial images. While I play a subtle role in guiding the day, my focus is on fostering an enjoyable, relaxed environment that ensures breathtaking photos without ever disrupting your wedding day.
My style is a blend of ethereal elegance and moody depth, with a subtle warmth reminiscent of film. I enjoy experimenting with editorial elements, occasionally incorporating a flash or adding a touch of film grain to enhance the artistry of my edits.
I’m always drawn to capturing movement—whether it's the joyful rush of a couple running hand in hand or the gentle flicker of a candle’s flame—bringing a sense of life and spontaneity to every image.
