hello THere! I'm so glad you're here!
I am an emotion-loving, home-schooling momma of two who craves fresh air, quiet moments with God, and those beautiful glowing sunsets. I love being outdoors. nature gives me a sense of peace and reminds me to slow down and listen. I laugh a lot, and cry often, and I believe there is beauty in both.
From the moment i picked up my first film camera in high school, I knew I was in love with something special. So much so that I covered every square inch of my childhood bedroom walls with photographs, which I am sure my parents loved at the time. This love began the dream of capturing more emotion-filled moments, which led to my career in wedding and family photography.
My husband, Brandon, and I have two children (Liam and Cora), which I tend to overshare images of pretty frequently. We’ve spent the last six months on a mission to change the way we live. This past July we purged most of our belongings (including our house and a crazy number of sweaters that proved I have a slight problem), and we set out on journey from Maine to Florida, exploring many places in-between.
We are passionate about living a meaningful yet simple life focused on faith, family, and experiences, with a lot less stuff.
Much like the way we live our lives, my photography is simple and focused on your unforgettable moments.

quiet moments
There is nothing better than opening God’s word, sinking down in a cozy sweater, sipping a cup of coffee, and journaling what God puts in my heart.
002
our tiny home
We renovated this tiny home and although it’s small, it holds so much love and joy. I love that no matter where we are in our home, we are always close to each other.
003
epic sunsets
I am a lover of light. Golden sunsets inspire me in every way. Every time I view one, I am reminded just how special the gift of love is, and how blessed we are to give and receive it.
004
heirlooms
There is something about holding images and albums in your fingers that really brings the images to life.
005
Travel
Travel ignites my soul. Experiencing the beauty and culture of new places inspires me.

There is only one happiness in life. To love and be loved.
