The Heart Behind
the Lens

When I'm not behind the camera, you'll usually find me working as a labor and delivery nurse or chasing after my toddler. For nearly a decade, I've had the privilege of witnessing some of life's biggest moments. Helping families meet their babies has taught me something I carry into everything I photograph: the moments you'll treasure most are often the ones you never planned.

That's why my approach is simple, I'll guide you when you need direction, but I'll also step back and let real moments unfold. My editing style is true-to-color, timeless and natural. I want your photos to feel just as beautiful twenty years from now as they do the day you receive them. Most of all, I want you to enjoy your experience.
