My photography style is documentary and cinematic, capturing every moment as true to how it unfolded as possible. During our time together, we'll explore every aspect of your unique story. I believe in guiding you back into those moments. These moments serve as the cornerstone of your photographs. My goal is for you to walk away from our time together feeling nostalgic, cherishing the beautiful intricacies of your journey, and perhaps even discovering a deepened sense of wonder for it.

my approach

inspired by

Stories have always held a special place in my heart. Countless summers were spent lost in books as a child, listening to my mom and dad read Narnia to me every evening, or crafting my own tales – often about chasing lizards as I grew up in Florida or falling in love beneath fireworks and sunsets. 

It was during a film photography class in high school that I discovered the power of visually documenting stories. Spending lunches and after-school hours in the darkroom developing photos, I found myself completely immersed in the process. It was then that a friend asked me to capture her engagement photos, and I was filled with an overwhelming sense of energy and passion. It was one of those “whoa” moments–this is what I was made to do. 

Traveling to 18 countries and living abroad only strengthened my conviction that even every landscape and building has a story waiting to be told. Amidst those breathtaking vistas and cityscapes, however, I always felt a profound desire to document people, to photograph a couple within that beautiful setting. For me, the pinnacle of creation's beauty lies in each individual.

If you're seeking someone who will genuinely care for your story and capture it authentically, I would be deeply honored to be your photographer.

PEOPLE & PLACES I LOVE

A GLIMPSE INTO MY LIFE

what i value

intentionality

Because you are made in the image of God, your love represents Him and his love. Capturing that makes me extraordinarily happy and I strive to do that with deep intentionality from start to finish. From the moment you inquire to the moment you’re ready to print your photos, I will be intentional and thoughtful, pouring myself into your experience.

[ back to values ]

CONNECTION

I believe in the importance of conversation and communication, while also having fun and being energized by each other! We’ll Facetime, send voice memos, and really get to know each other so you feel comfortable and deeply connected in your experience in front of the camera.

[ back to values ]

FRIENDSHIP

 I want our time together to feel like time with an old friend. I can’t wait to get to know you and all of the fun things you love to do, your hopes and dreams for your life, and everything that makes you so unique. I can’t wait to hear your coffee shop recommendations, shows you can’t get enough of, and places you like traveling!

[ back to values ]

faith

It's the essence of the deepest human experience: to love and to be loved. For me, love first emanates from God and the sacrificial love of Jesus as my Savior. The word for His love is "agape," encapsulating the profoundest forms of love. He has been my Father, my friend, and the love of my soul for the majority of my life. He is the bedrock of both my work and my life's journey.

real moments

In the early days of my business, I found myself orchestrating poses that felt, well, awkward. The forced approach of poses often resulted in discomfort, both for myself and those in front of my camera. It dawned on me that many of us aren't naturally at ease in front of the lens. I realized photography’s beauty lies in documenting reality. I treasure the candid photos of my parents from their early days of dating—simple snapshots capturing genuine moments taken in moments of ease and love. These are the kinds of images I aspire to give you, filled with beautiful and authentic memories that truly capture your story.
