more about me >

The birth of my daughters brought it all full circle for me. Being able to show them Mom and Dad's wedding photos is so sweet, and it made me realize the kind of legacy we are leaving behind.

I came to love photography while documenting the major milestones in my own life. Looking through those images still evokes feelings and stories that I know I’ll never forget. Wedding days pass so quickly, but through photographs we can capture all those precious moments and use them to share the stories with future generations. I treasure all the relationships I’ve made in my eleven years as a wedding photographer, and truly cannot believe how lucky I am!

hello!

This is why I love what I do! That feeling I get after sending someone memories from their day, and knowing that they’ll get to relive that happy moment over and over makes it all worth it! 

The wedding was, of course, beautiful, and after all was said and done I received one of the biggest compliments from them: that I felt just like family!

Also, after sending a few photos right after the wedding the bride told me: “I am absolutely blown away. You are an angel. These pictures are about more than I can take without full blown sobbing. They are so perfect and so beautiful. I am so unbelievably thankful for you and for everything!!! Love you!!!!” 


As much as this is about capturing your memories, it is also about building relationships with you. 

Recently, a local venue owner contacted me about her son’s wedding! I’ve known and loved her for years, but didn’t know the couple very well. She’s always been one of my favorites and I felt so honored that she thought of me for this monumental moment in her life. Her son was getting married! After just talking on the phone with the bride and her family, we had an instant connection!
