My Approach

I believe that photography should be an experience and I love being able to create a fun, valuable, and memorable one for the families I meet.  I hold your hand from the very beginning, from choosing your outfits to literally hanging your portraits on your walls.  This time, you can relax and let me do the hard work while you just enjoy your family and the memories you create together.

To be completely honest, I'm not like all the rest.

When my second youngest was born a little over 3 months early, I realized that “going to work” on someone else’s terms wasn’t going to work for me anymore. Coming home from the NICU with a trach, ventilator, and feeding tube, Jonah just needed a totally different level of mama care.

Why
Photography?

The other side of having a medical baby was that I felt and valued each and every moment, every milestone, every time his little eyes opened up to look at me so much more. You can ask anyone and they’ll tell you I snapped a zillion photos of my sweet big kids. Jonah, however, totally renewed and refreshed that desire to capture every moment. Then, I realized that I could help other people capture moments in time for themselves, their families, their children. Moments that are amazing, important, and gone in the blink of an eye. Not only that, but I could help them preserve those photos in beautiful albums and artwork to keep forever. I can't think of anything I'd rather do than to give this gift to the families I meet.
