We believe that everyone has the right to feel loved, cared for, and important.  That right there is the purpose for my new business adventures! For years I have dreamed about being able to host beautiful, encouraging, and inspiring events for women.  It’s something I always put off as, “one day” or “when I have […]

When Cassie first called me to tell me she was engaged and wanted us to photograph her wedding, I was ECSTATIC.  I first met Cassie & her girls at the gym and immediately fell in love with her little family.  I dreamed of photographing these adorable girls while visions of sugar plums danced in my […]

Brianna & Nick have the sweetest relationship!  They work nights together in the same hospital, which means they get to swing their sleeping schedules together.  PLUS, every third shift together, they go out for breakfast afterward! I mean, it’s safe to say that doing third shift doesn’t get much better then that. 😉 These two […]

It has been such a joy to photograph this sweet family as they grow and I will for sure be sad to see them go!  They are currently in the middle of a transition of moving to a new town, which we are so sad about, but also excited for them as they take on […]
