I love spending the day and getting to know my clients so I can capture images that tell their story and that they can look back on lovingly.

With a creative eye, and an art degree to back it up, I invite you to step in front of my lens and let your love story unfold against the backdrop of this beautiful city.

My clients are most attracted to my authentic and unique portraiture style, which is cultivated by my photojournalist roots. I enjoy capturing authentic moments that transpire naturally in the presence of authentic people. Reflecting back to my earliest childhood memories, I guess I have always been a photographer at heart. Growing up in a household as one of 6 children with only one income, we often struggled financially. As a result, taking photographs wasn’t on the list of priorities for my parents and so many of the memories lost to recollection, are lost forever. My social status is “Butterfly.” When I am not shooting professionally, I am most definitely either at church or at one of my 3 kids’ competitive sporting events. We are your typical all sports family and I am most certainly the coolest minivan mom you’ll ever see. I have been an athlete and sports fanatic all my life. I come from a very athletic family, excelling in a variety of school sports. In college, I studied sports medicine and worked with college athletes in multiple division I sports. With my obvious, but slight, obsession with sports, it isn’t much of a surprise that I, also, moonlight as a sports photographer, shooting action photographs for various youth sporting events and creating “Tricked Out” digital graphic products.
