Let’s be friends!
My story with photography starts in my elementary school memories. I have always been drawn to cameras and photographs and capturing people in my community. Throughout my years at school, I was tirelessly and confidently the one rallying for a group shot and looking for willing friends to be my models. I’ve always done my story telling through pictures. My first “real camera” — a canon rebel xsi was an extravagant and generous gift from my parents for my 15th birthday. It rocked my world. And it made history for me in two ways, because it also prompted the first phone call I made to my husband Taylor seeking to share excitement with someone who also loved camera things!
I have been taking pictures professionally since 2013.
I have found over these years, it’s the most rewarding and life-giving work for me to take pictures of people in their happy place. Location makes all the difference. Rather than going to flower fields and open landscapes to take pictures, I will always prefer to meet you where you’re at. In your house— at the park you’ve been taking your kids to a lot these days—in your studio making what you love. I’ve never met a stage in life that wasn’t photo-worthy. My passion is to capture people how they are and where they love to be. I like to create from a place of honesty and comfortability with others. My goal is to showcase to you the beauty and wonder and magic of where and who you are. Crazy kids, messy home in all. It’s too rich of a time in life to let it pass without soaking it up, and I’m positive you’ll want to look back at it. Anyway, I hope I get to meet you!!
