I’ve had a camera as a fifth limb for over a decade now. From the darkroom days in high school to vagabond months spent in America’s wild west, ya girl’s always had a camera swinging from her hip.
Well-traveled and an artist of many crafts, there is no greater joy to me than knowing my art will be timeless in the form of your family’s memories secured in bold, true colors.
The thing about my sessions and the way I shoot my shots - I’m looking for the moments, the connections, the glimpses of genuine joy.
I specialize in not specializing. I want to grow with you as an individual and family - capturing precious memories as both your photographer and friend. From your wedding day, to your first child, senior graduation, and beyond - I wanna be there for it all.
My path to a masters degree and career in pediatric Speech Language Pathology has me 100% prepared with the patience for your wild toddlers, tricky teens, and reluctant partners. Your kiddos won’t even notice they’re posing while we’re playing. Getting a child to engage in play and conversation with me is my life’s work, whether that be on the carpet in a classroom or behind a camera on a riverbank. Full family sessions with me aren’t going to feel like a series of stiff poses I’m forcing your kids into - it’s going to feel like a family play date with that hyper and sorta weird woman who makes them yell silly words just to get the biggest grins.
My past work in dog grooming studios and horse stables also has me eager to include your furry family members and my deep experience in America’s beautiful National Parks has me ready to strap on my boots and show you my favorite trails.
Down to meet you in a charming Midwestern forest or field.
Even more down to meet you in the mountains or desert.
