Hi, I'm so glad you're here!


My photography journey started back in 2017 when I began taking senior photos for friends and co-workers. As soon as I picked up the camera, I fell in love… Not just with taking the photos but capturing your special moments.


Whether you are recently engaged, preparing for a baby on the way, graduating, or just wanting to have some photos taken for fun… I am your gal! 


I would love to work with you! Send me a message and let’s get to know one another!


xx
