Hello!

Wife. Mom. Disneyland lover. Yarn Hoarder. Light Chaser.

I'm addicted to soft smooshy blankets & scented candles. I love weekends, October, rainy days, soft, dreamy light, sushi, fuzzy slippers, Saturday afternoon movie dates and binge watching all of my favorite shows! You’ll usually find me with my camera in one hand and a diet coke in the other. 

I believe the best photos are the ones that feel like you. The ones that capture the quiet glances, belly laughs, and wild dance moves in the kitchen. As a mom and photographer, I know how fast these years fly — and I’m here to help you hold onto what matters most!

Random Things About Me

  1. I believe a person can never own too many soft blankets.
  2. I have secret stashes of candles hidden all around my house. 
  3. I listened to over 700 hours of audiobooks last year. 
  4. I've never had a passport! (Definitely need to fix that!)
  5. I think I might like to be a spoiled, lazy house cat in my next life.
  6. Homegoods.  Pottery Barn.  Anthropologie.  Target.
  7. If I could wake up tomorrow & be naturally amazing at something, I'd choose cooking!   
  8. I hate peas!
  9. I'd live in sweats if I could, but you'll never catch me without make-up on. 
  10. I am the definition of a homebody!  To me, a good time on a Friday night is being curled up in my sweats, watching movies and crocheting!

I may be one of the most sentimental people you’ll ever meet. I’ve saved every heartfelt card, cry during commercials, and will become instantly nostalgic if Crash Into Me (Dave Matthews, anyone?) comes on—because in an instant, I’m 17 again, windows down in my old hand-me-down '86 Honda Civic.

I’ve always loved photography. Even as a kid, I was drawn to it. When I’d visit friends’ houses, I’d secretly hope they had a hallway full of family photos so I could study them, pulling stories from each frame. (I know—I’m weird like that!) I’ve always been fascinated by people and the dynamics that make each family beautifully unique.

But photography took on a deeper meaning when I lost my dad suddenly, just weeks before my wedding...

In my grief, those photos became a lifeline—proof of his love, his laugh, our story. Photography became more than a creative outlet; it also became incredibly personal and therapeutic.

When my daughters were born, that purpose deepened. I didn’t just want to remember what life looked like—I wanted to remember how it felt. The photos that fill our walls are like love letters to my girls: reminders that they are seen, adored, and wildly loved.

Today, I bring that same heart to every session. Whether it’s the magic of early motherhood, the excitement of senior year, or the messy, beautiful chaos of everyday family life—I’m here to help you press pause and preserve your story!


Because one day, you’ll look back and realize the little moments were actually the big ones.

your story

Photographs tell the story of who we are, who we love and who loves us. 

And what else is there, really?
