You are not just another session on my calendar, I genuinely treat every client like a pal.
I will bring you coffee to a sunrise sesh, plan our whole adventure, and you can text me at any point with outfit ideas or . inspo.
Getting your photo taken can feel so daunting and vulnerable - I will always make our time together feel light and easy so you can feel confident in your movement and authenticity.
Every gallery is made with so much heart behind it. I truly feel so connected to my work and the relationships I build through the process.
It's a myth that we see dead stars in the night sky HOWEVER each time we see the stars we see them as they were and not as they are...like a photograph from the universe.
Night skies and photographs share this level of immortality.
Immortal when you're 100 years old looking back on the day you and your favorite person decided to spend forever together.
Immortal when a loved one passes, their essence is incapsulated in an image.
Immortal when moments become memories and we are given back to the earth... in an image, those who loved us can see our smile again and reminisce on the warmth of our hugs, the feeling of shared laughter, and the echoes our lives leave behind.
Part of this appreciation for what I do started ~randomly~ when I learned about stars and the way light travels.
Every time we look at the sky at night, we are catching a glimpse of the past. It's a myth that we see dead stars in the night sky HOWEVER each time we see the stars we see them as they were and not as they are...like a photograph from the universe.

If photography is a reflection of life and of love, why should we pretend that it's always perfectly lit + in focus? The imperfect is realistic and beautiful. The imperfect is what makes photos look the way we feel.
The belief that your photos have to fall in line with some sort of equation to be any good, just bugs the heck out of me. Your story is uniquely yours. It is your narrative that's in the spotlight, not anyone else's.
Sometimes when you bend certain rules, you get something way more unique, special, and true to you. That is my goal for telling your love story.
I live for the untamed, the organic goodness of a belly laugh, the wind in your hair, dirt in your toes, and the in-betweens.
