I grew up in Williamsburg, Virginia. In high school, I loved singing in choir, drawing portraits, sewing my own clothes, and decorating for family events, holidays. I was also constantly taking photos of all my friends and family (usually against their will lol). After I graduated at 17, I worked full time and eventually graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Psychology. I knew I wanted to work with people and do something creative, but I couldn’t figure out what that was yet. Something creative just seemed so far fetched for me at that age, I thought I needed a more “stable” career.

I started going to an art school online to pursue graphic design and photography. I landed a job with an organization that allowed me to travel all over the U.S. as a camera production assistant. I loved it and was fortunate enough to have a photography mentor who taught me most of what I know today. I went on to further educate myself on camera operation, lighting, color theory, posing and fell even more in love with photography.  

When it comes to my style of photography and what makes me passionate, it’s the beauty in the timeless image that lasts a lifetime, while also creating compositions that make you take a second look. I’m inspired by anything vintage, editorial fashion magazines, the music and fashion of the 70’s and the 90’s. (90’s baby here)

Working with couples and women is where I shine. I like small, intimate sessions because I get to truly connect with my clients and give them an experience. What makes me genuinely happy is getting my clients to see the natural beauty within themselves, especially my female clients. Being a woman in our society isn’t easy and sometimes having a photoshoot can give a huge boost of confidence. It is so special to capture the emotions and memories of our time together. I like to think of myself as an observer allowing you to see yourself and your family from a different perspective.
