I am the daughter of a hard working Ironworker. We moved around more than a military family would! We went from Southern California all the way up to Alaska and everywhere in between. Now, I’m as far East as you can go in Virginia Beach.

I’ve experienced so much beauty and like so many of us, pain. I learned early on that I’m an extreme observer. I came upon my first camera when I was eighteen and I take advantage of that quality.. I am ALWAYS searching for authentic interactions to capture and I’m always up for a challenge.

I build meaningful relationships by documenting the lives of others the way I see it. I believe everyone deserves to truly live in their moments and hold on to them for generations.

 I’ve experienced big love. I’ve also experienced ultimate losses and at a very young age. I’ve come to realize that my memories are fading over time. BUT…

The photographs have become my memories, my family heirlooms and most importantly, MY WHY.

I was given a gift and I’ve made it my mission to share it with as many people as I can.

When I was younger, I wanted to be a comedian OR a NASCAR driver.


Lover of pitbulls but any pup is a pal to me.


I love dreaming up sessions with the people I get to photograph over a glass of wine or a cup of tea!
