My journey started with a childhood obsession of memory collecting. I curated scrapbooks, kept countless journals, and stored my polaroid photos in albums on my nightstand. Telling stories has always been my thing. I'll never forget the first time I held my parent's brand new family Nikon in my hands. I had no idea back then just how much of a journey my future self would embark on or how many stories I'd have the honor of freezing in time. I'll never get over it!
Beyond the lens, as a wife and mama my days are filled with snuggles, a latte or three, and the occasional chaotic dance party in the living room (because why not, right?). An empath at heart, I believe in the power of connection, whether it's through a heartfelt conversation or a shared, teary-eyed moment, I keep things real! And don't even get me started on romantic movies – I'm a total sucker for a Nicholas Sparks-y love story! Letting me capture yours is literally icing on my cake.

She made sure that every detail was perfect and both our visions were able to come together and produce incredible photos."
ENFJ, Amiable, Scorpio, Empath, Words of Affirmation. I totally geek out over personality quizzes and deep diving into why people are the way they are. If you know your enneagram, I'd love for you to tell me yours when we chat!
Whether it's the way I decorate my home (warm neutrals and chunky cream colored blankets), the candles I buy (vanilla with hints of bourbon), or quite literally taking a warm bath, I am very much into the way my 5 senses feel at all times (likely the enneagram 6 in me coming out there). I feel things to my core!
Right after I graduated college my gal pals and I packed up, moved to Sevilla Spain, and taught ESL for a few months. We lived with host families, galavanted to Italy for fresh cappuccinos on the weekends, and did what people said we should "do" before we settle down one day. The souvenir I brought back was my love for European names. Ask me what I named my babes!
Well, sort of. My brother was looking for a place to live and found a roommate via Craigslist. That roommate had another roommate... my now husband.
I remember being in second grade coming home with markers and writing a list of my classmate's names in the colors that they were. Mike was red, Lauren was gray, Cole was yellow. Ok, I know you're wondering... what?! My brain does this wild thing (synesthesia) where when I see words, I see them in very specific colors. Ask me what color your name is!
You know, the kind of moments that tug at your heartstrings and leave you craving an instant replay? Yep, those are my specialty! I'm here to sprinkle some photo magic on those cherished memories so you can hit the rewind button whenever you please and linger in those moments as long as your heart desires!
