ABOUT me
I'm a hopeless romantic who finds great joy in creating and capturing connection and beauty wherever I go.
behind the lens
A wife, former nurse, and full-time wedding photographer. I have been blessed with the sweetest career, and I am my best self behind the camera. I love capturing and preserving meaningful and beautiful moments all while meeting new people and building lasting connections. I aim to create images that are light, timeless and make my clients feel joy.
I love nothing more than spending my days slowly, carefully, with intention. Read on for a little more about me and my favorite things.
Hopeless romantic, lover of light, travel, food, and the soft, glowing colors brought to life on film.
