it’s nice to meet you
photographer & mama
I believe in real moments and chasing sunsets. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together. I believe in images that are itching to be printed, placed in beautiful frames and hung on walls for years to come.
I began capturing images at age 22 when my friends saw something in me that I hadn’t yet seen. They set me on a course to exploring a new artistic means for me– memorializing the moments, the details, the love, in a way that I found beautiful and satisfying to my creative side.
Whenever I pick up my camera, I strive to create beautiful and emotional images that tell a story and showcase the beauty of both the people in the images and the world around them.
Even with it’s ups and downs, your life, your story, is beautiful and I can’t wait to create images that show that!
My love for photography has traversed the seasons of my life with me- through single life, engaged, married, having babies, and now raising kids. There is beauty to be found in each season, and I’m so glad to get to help memorialize your season.
"Thank you for capturing such beautiful photos of our family!

FUELING my SOUL
Raise a Fork
Food lets you explore and learn about different cultures. I love to go out and try new things that I can’t make at home. Throw in family or a few friends and you have the ingredients for a perfect night!
FUELING MY SOUL
Hammocks
To me, hammocks symbolize summer and leisure time with my family! You can’t go wrong spending time swinging in a hammock, looking up at the beautiful sky, and enjoying the great outdoors!
FUELING MY SOUL
Neutrals
I’m a big fan of home decor in neutral colors with lots of texture! The colors bring a sense of welcoming calm to my home after a busy day with the family.
my “why”
IT all begins with family…
THE HEART BEHIND WHAT i DO
Gotta love snapshots from the 80’s and 90’s, right? I remember clearly a kindergarten field trip to the St. Louis Zoo because 1)my mom was there and 2)I had a little film camera and took all the pics I wanted of animals and friends. I think I still have them in an album downstairs. Photos remind us of our heritage, our past, our memories, and I take these things very seriously. I’ve become somewhat of the family historian, digitizing and organizing any old family photos or home movies I can get my hands on, and of course making sure to take updated photos of everybody, all the time. These things are important to me, and in addition to my draw toward the creative nature of photography, I love the memorializing aspect as well. It’s so fun to draw out the beautiful with my lens, and then to have that image to enjoy for generations to come.
