About
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 love capturing wedding, engagement, maternity, family, senior, portrait or real estate photography.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I love the opportunity to meet new people and tell their story through my lens. I really enjoy capturing children's personality's. Weddings are all wonderful as each one brings a different perspective. All of my clients have been an absolute dream to work with.
I discuss their vision for the session, wedding, event, etc to make sure we are a perfect fit for each other.
We decide on a location (unless they already have one in mind), and set the date and time. If they need help with color coordinating outfits, then I am ready to provide any input as to what looks best for photos.
Once the contract is signed and retainer is paid, the date is secured.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have invested in the best equipment and many courses and continue to do so each year. I feel that learning is never complete. :)

How did you get started in this business?
I have always loved taking photos of family members and landscapes. I started off with a point and shoot camera and then upgraded from there. I have invested in some of the best lens, cameras, and lighting that is available.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I have captured many weddings, family sessions, senior sessions, children, pets, engagement sessions, and real estate photography.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
My last wedding of 2020 was captured at Twin Lakes. Although I LOVE all of my wedding couples, Shaina and Derek were an absolute dream to work with! Shaina's dad got sick and was still very frail but managed to make it to their ceremony. It was such a sweet moment to watch Shaina interact with her dad during their first look and their first dance. You can read more of their wedding on my blog.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Meet with them to really make sure that your personalities mesh. You will be spending more time with them, over any other vendor.
If you are looking for a family or portrait photographer, then make sure their style matches what you're looking for.
