Wife to Blake, Mother to two sweet boys, and photographer to anyone who loves bright and intentional imagery. I like to think that I am multifaceted. On one hand, you have the driven entrepreneur that thrives on coffee shop meetings, an upbeat playlist blaring during photoshoots, and coming home at the end of the day with sore muscles from doing one too many squats just to get the shot. On the other, there is the no make-up me who could spend all day on the couch snuggling my boys watching whatever movie they love at the time. I think being a balance of both of these people helps me be creative in capturing the everyday things we might take for granted. Whether I am photographing a brand or portraits of your loved ones, I do my best to show the beauty of the little things: textures, colors, light, movements. In my opinion, these are the things that make for a memorable image.
