Wedding + Portrait + Pretty Thing  Photography


Capturing light, feelings, moments and all the things in between.

The business history:

Photography has been a passion of mine since I was young, and made something of it in 2010 whenI invested all of my graduation money into my first big girl camera.


What I do:

I am an on location photographer specializing in Weddings, and Portrait photography. When I'm not photographing people, I focus my time on Fine Art / Still Life Photography.  I love making the small details come to life or tell a story.


Deets about me and my sessions:

Anxiety is a real thing y'all, and for a long time I really struggled with it. Now, I've come to the realization that it is actually a unique asset for my photography career. A lot of people describe themselves as awkward in front of the camera / in general, and DO I GET IT.  Making you feel comfortable and supported is my main goal so we can both put the nerves at ease, resulting in more genuine photos! My sessions are typically laid back, and all about being present in the moment.


Whether it's your big wedding day, or a mini family photo session, these moments are filled with joy and unforgettable memories, and that deserves to be beautifully captured. Lets make some magic

Do the thing

Photography holds a unique power to freeze fleeting moments, allowing us to hold onto the beauty, emotion, and essence of life as it unfolds. Each photograph becomes a time capsule, preserving a feeling, a connection, or a story that might otherwise fade with a memory. In capturing the word through the lens, we are not just documenting what we see, but how we feel - our joys, sorrows, and the in-between moments that make life extraordinary. Photos remind us of where we've been, the people we've loved, and lessons we've learned, grounding us in the present while leaving a legacy for the future. They tell stories words cannot, offering a tangible reminder of life's fragile, fleeting wonder.

Take the photos. You won't regret it.
