One thing that I think you should know about me is that I'm someone who loves my people and will give away the jacket off my back. I love people wholeheartedly. This job requires full attention to detail, love and connection. I believe photography stems from feelings and emotions and that is what I want my work to reflect. When people ask me what made me decide to be a wedding photographer, I think the answer was quite simple - human connection. I'd like to say that I love people like Jesus loves us so I try to implement that in my business and treat people kindly. My faith and love for Jesus is very strong and there's not a day that goes by that I don't thank him for these opportunities. So, I use my talent and my purpose for good. Because without him, I wouldn't be able to do this. So, I will ensure that if you and I cross paths, I will do everything in my power to make sure you have the best wedding photography experience possible. This isn't just a business transaction, this is a stepping stone into making new memories and new friends.

MY WORKS HAVE BEEN FEATURED IN
When you're a kid, people always ask you "what do you want to be when you grow up?" I always had so many answers when I was asked: a marine biologist, an athletic trainer, a writer, - you name it. When I was a kid, I will never forget someone handing me my first camera and I knew then I became hooked. After that, I made it my mission to become some kind of photographer. A little after I graduated high school, I worked in the medical field for 4 years and had been in college for Sports Journalism which turned into Sports Medicine and has now switched to Marketing and Advertising. I did take some time off school when I started this business and my plan is to finish my last two years and get my degree.
I've been with my boyfriend, Joshua, for 5 years and we have out 3 year old lab Buddy - who is our whole world. He reason I believe in true love because he is mine. I love the people in my life wholeheartedly and I wear my heart on my sleeve.
I love Jesus more than anything.
He's the reason I am able to do what I do and I wouldn't be the person that I am without me giving my life to him. I lean my everything on him and I try to love my people the way he loved me.

I am a huge advocate for taking care of your body, hence why fitness is such a huge part in my life. I come from a family of first responders and military and they are both huge on taking care of your body. Hiking mountains, rock climbing, crossfit - you name it. I love it all! I am in the gym at least 5-6x a week! We have to take care of our bodies!
I rescued a 2 year Lab from a shelter back in December of 2023. He had been in the shelter for a week and they were going to euthanize him. I knew in my heart I couldn't let that happen so I went and got him and it was possibly one of the best decisions of my life. His name is so fitting because he is truly my little Buddy.
