•Whether documenting you and your loved ones in-home, at a special location, or during a portrait session, my goal is to capture the rawness of real life and special moments for you to treasure and pass on•

I am a full-time chauffeur, entertainer and referee of 3 little blondies and a wife to a personal trainer turned construction sales rep. As a family we enjoy a lot of laughs…mostly at each other’s expense, dancing in the kitchen, camping, fishing, snow sports & hiking.  I am an outdoor enthusiast & adventure seeker who wants to pass as much of that onto our kids as possible. I enjoy weekly dinners with 10 of my favorite women and wine on the patio after the kids are in bed.

I remember the first photo I was allowed to take with my mom’s camera growing up. I was only 9 or so but I remember loving being behind the camera and capturing that moment of my family being together,  knowing I would always be able to see it. That love stuck with me throughout the years. I took 3 years of black & white photography, developing my own film, creating enlargements and prints in a darkroom. Inevitably the digital age came around…I dove right in and haven’t looked back.

Recently published and named one of Instagram’s 75 best photographers, I am feeling pretty honored and accomplished, but that was not my end goal. I am gearing up for even bigger things that will give back to other mothers. I so appreciate the support of my friends, family and clients and truly hope you join me and play a part in this story of mine while I capture yours.

Thank you for visiting!
