The experience you've been anticipating

imagEry from an artist's 

 I am here to get you out of your comfort zone and into that confident head space I know you have. Many times people are nervous about having their picture taken because they do not know how to pose. That famous phrase “What do I do with my HANDS?” is something you will never have to ask me because I will be your guide! It is your job to be relaxed and enjoy the moment for what it is and to laugh when I make a fool of myself behind the camera! Trust me, this will be a fun experience for you and you’ll have beautiful, professional photos to remember where you are at this point in your life. Celebrate your life!

An experience that  brings you closer

ARE WE A GOOD FIT?

I always tell couples this is an experience that brings them closer because of all the laughing, smooching, and frolicking (don’t panic - it’s really just a fancy way to say FUN)…that is pretty important. WE WANT PDA! Conveying emotion in a photo is an incredibly important part of what makes a photo interesting and REAL. The good news is that it isn’t that hard because with me, you really just get to be yourself. I am here to guide you and make sure we are working in tandem with all the elements going on around us. I make the magic happen, but the real magic is YOU. 

Let’s get you launched!

Let’s create the perfect space for your session. We will collaborate with other artists and entrepreneurs to envision the dream session for you. I’ve worked closely with makeup and hair stylists, florists and other industry creatives that can help us achieve the ultimate setting for your personal branding photo shoot.. I look forward to adding your perfect photos to my portfolio!

Photography has taught me how to find my true essence and I want to continue spreading that feeling onto YOU. I’ve started client relationships with an engagement photo shoot, and so many of you have graciously let me photograph your weddings, first babies, SECOND babies - I’m honored to have multiple family clients!
