I am a full time photographer with a goal to capture simple, pretty portraits. I have a major love for love, soft color, timeless imagery, and real moments. I have a habit of romanticizing life- even those mundane moments that seem normal and bleh (I promise those are beautiful!). I don't use heavy edits on my photos, I prefer a true to life but film-like edit. I once had a client say they chose me because my work is "Real life, but better", and I loved that description! That is the goal in my work. To capture a real life moment and turn it into an even better tangible memory. I do offer direction and guidance for portraits for weddings and each session I do, but I also like to act as a fly on the wall and capture those natural real life moments too. Both are essential for a complete gallery!

some random things I love

pizza - any beach - traveling - family time - first looks - grandparents - puppies - ok, pretty much any animal - the smell of books (and reading anything I can get my hands on) - thunderstorms - rainy summer days - rainy winter days - sunny fall days - leaves crunching under feet - the smell of coffee - iced coffee - how pleasant everyone is at Christmas - when you have something in common with a stranger
