WHEN I’M NOT SHOOTING,
YOU CAN FIND ME…
wakeboarding + wakesurfing
chilling by the bay
cooking homemade meals
drinking a cold glass of nobilo
watching survivor
dreaming up my next family trip
singing loudly in the shower
dating my boo
playing the piano
a little about me…
My passion for photography started at a very young age. I was the annoying friend with the camera at every social gathering, taking candids of small talk, and forcing you into a group to say "cheese." I have albums upon albums of 4x6 prints labeled in detail on the side. I'm an old soul at heart, mainly because I don’t try to keep up with the times, I love to rest and take in nature, and I love to sip a hot beverage on the porch with friends.
I'm a world traveler. I met my amazing and studly husband in Peru, where we fell in love and got married in less than a year. We never met each other’s family or friends before popping the questions. We just knew!! Our first pet together was a monkey named Abu (may he rest in peace). After leaving the jungles of Peru, we got married, and eight years later we now have three amazing and beautiful children : Hudson, Jack, and June! They are our pride and joy!!
Who is a good fit?
I connect with people who just want to capture their amazing love story in the most candid, romantic, and creative ways! Your day is meant to be enjoyed, and you spend the MOST time with your photographer on your wedding day! ( I know… it sounds crazy but it’s true…) That’s why I want to make sure you are super comfortable having me photograph your wedding. Anyone can take a photo, but not everyone can make you relax and make your feel like yourself!
I do NOT care about running the show and calling the shots. I can… but ideally we work out your perfect timeline and shot list ahead of time, so that your wedding is relaxed, and nothing is unexpected! I shoot your wedding with ease, creativity, effortlessly, and efficiently!
