was digging through my mom & dad's old shoe boxes filled with photos of their life before my brother & I. As a young girl, I spent hours sorting through their different phases of my parents life - dating, fun times with friends, traveling, their wedding day, pregnancy and early parenthood. It was like digging through a treasure chest- I was able to live through them, and to this day feel so grateful that I have so many memories of theirs to cherish. So much so, that it inspired me to do the same for others.

There's an added layer of love when you know that the person capturing your story is also someone who genuinely cares about you. And on the opposite end, there is so much more heart that goes into capturing your story when there is an established relationship.

I create my best work when we establish a connection. I have been so lucky to call many of my past clients and couples my friends, and the relationship usually continues to grow even after the wedding day is said and done. I want to know about your life before our paths crossed, and the things that matter most to you.

My first experience with photography ...

While it's a photographer's job to capture the stories of others, I believe that our eyes naturally gravitate towards the things that matter most to us on a personal level. I value connection above all else - in my own life and in my work. There is something so beautiful about the everyday, natural interactions that you share with your loved ones that would happen whether I was there to capture them or not. It is always my goal to capture moments that really showcase the genuine nature of the relationships that mean most to you. 

Above all, I follow the lead of whoever is in front of my camera. I hope to to create an environment for you to open up to accurately tell your story. Really, it's you trusting, being vulnerable and sharing your life that helps me feel empowered to create. My work has always been a reflection of where my heart resides - and that is in connection.

My style often described as heart led, genuine, undone, in the moment and nostalgic. 

I'm a wedding and portrait photographer based in Phoenix, AZ and I have been doing photography professionally for the past 7 years. I am Arizona born and raised, and absolutely love the beautiful desert landscape, but I also love any opportunity to explore new terrains.
