I am overjoyed, flattered, and emotional thinking about all the support, love, and reassurance I have received from many people, including my close family who have been there every step of the way and have loved me through all my decisions no matter what they were. Being able to take a look at my past, shows me that even when it’s hard and you just want to give up, don’t. Keep going. It will be worth it! 

I wasn't always a successful photographer & studio owner, you know

A quick recap on how I started my business...
Since I was young, I always had creative ideas and it would end by taking my mom's camera and running off with it!  Fast forward to September 2021 when I started my business; which let me tell you, BEST. DECISION. EVER. Just 3 months earlier, I had filed for divorce. It was one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever made. I was scared, unsure of how I’d support myself and my son, and struggled with self-doubt. I had no formal training in business or photography, and I didn’t believe I could do it on my own—let alone be loved again or thrive as a single mom.
But here I am, just a few years later: working full-time from home, fully booked, turning away extra jobs, and doing what I love every day.
I’ve photographed over 200 weddings, births, proposals, and countless candid moments. I'm short, but not afraid to stand on a chair or lay on the ground for the perfect shot! I’m detail-oriented (color-coded highlighters, anyone?), and I love forming real connections with the people I work with. You'll see me with a Redbull in my hand, and hair up in a messy bun 90% of the week lol. I grew up in the country—riding horses, racing dirt bikes, and soaking in the beauty of nature. I’ve been a woman of faith from a young age, and I truly believe that even the hardest chapters in life can lead to something beautiful.
So real talk; to be considered your photographer means the world to me. This job isn’t just about pictures—it’s about trust, connection, and telling your story in a way words can’t. Thanks for being here. You’re the reason I get to keep doing what I love.
