Hello!
Thanks for popping in to get to know me better.
I am a LUXURY lifestyle photographer that always finds, and has a story to tell. I am a Canon girl and shoot mirrorless. I have been nationally published and I shot for local magazines.
I have a darling son and have been married to my main man for 20 years. I homeschool my shorty and have a darling 7lb little bitty rescue buddy named Fur Face. He is always on my lap while I edit. Shorty is usually doing school, or coming up with some new wild pet idea. They both are so stinking cute.
I love me a sunset, plants, good coffee and cheap wine and both with cheese. I don’t make you say that … while maybe sometimes. I am a midwesterner, but the beach is always calling and I love to answer. I have been a few places on this lovely planet, but my home is where my guys are. I am a floral addict and I love big ideas and random roadtrips. I enjoy being fancy sometimes, but being outside is my favorite place.
I cherish the people in my life and I love when you pick me to capture those that you feel the same about. I am not here for pictures. I am here the feelings timeless images make you feel the moment and remember the reason you were laughing, crying, hugging and most of all loving those that fill your heart.
Like Annie Leibovitz said “A thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people.” I feel that deeply.

“Photography for me is not looking, it’s a feeling. If you can’t feel what you are looking at, then you're never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures.”
