I love what I do. That sounds cliche, but it's true.
I get to show up to some of the best days of people's lives, document moments that matter, and be around love and celebration for a living. All during one of the most emotional, joyful, overwhelming experiences they'll ever have. It's a privilege I don't take lightly.
But here's what I want you to know: this isn't just about beautiful photos. It's about the experience behind them.
I want you to actually enjoy being photographed. Not dread it. Not feel awkward or stiff or like you're performing for the camera. I want you to feel comfortable enough to be yourselves while I quietly make sure nothing slips by.
Because the photos only feel real if the experience was real. And I care about both.
— a photographer inspired by emotion, the outdoors, and human connection.

MY VALUES
I care about people. That's why I pursued a psychology degree, and it's why this work makes sense for me. I want to understand what matters to you, what makes you comfortable, what your day actually means. Photography is just the medium - the real work is about building trust and seeing you for who you are.
I'm drawn to what feels natural - the outdoors, soft light, unforced moments. I don't overcomplicate things. In my work, that translates to making the experience feel effortless. No stress, no overthinking. I handle what needs handling so you can just be there.
I love this work, and I want you to love the experience too. Being photographed shouldn't feel like a chore. It should be fun. Enjoyable. Something you look back on and remember fondly, not just because of the photos, but because of how it felt while it was happening.
I notice things. The way light changes throughout the day. How people interact when they think no one's watching. Small details that tell a bigger story. On your wedding day, that means I'm paying attention to the moments you might miss - the ones you'll want to remember later.
This isn't just about beautiful photos. It's about the experience behind them.
Photography has been part of my life for as long as I can remember.
I grew up with film cameras and disposables, documenting everything with my friends. I got my first digital camera as a teenager (after my mom got tired of me stealing hers), and it became an extension of me. I took it everywhere. Photos of random moments, inside jokes, things that felt important at the time. Looking back at those photos now, they carry so much memory and meaning.
That's what this work is about for me - preserving what matters so you can look back and feel it all over again.
After college, I worked at NASA for a while (yes, really). I started my photography business in Virginia, shooting my first few weddings there before moving to Tennessee. Once I got into wedding photography, I couldn't imagine doing anything else.
What gets me is the trust. You're inviting me into one of the most important days of your life. You're trusting me to notice what matters, to be present without being intrusive, to give you something that feels true to who you are. When couples tell me months later that looking at their photos brought them right back to how their day felt - that's why I do this.
Every couple is different. Every family has their own dynamic. No two weddings feel the same, and that's what keeps this work interesting.
These days, I live in Tennessee with my husband and our dog Duncan, who's basically my coworker (he shows up in a lot of my behind-the-scenes content). I love the outdoors, I have The Office playing in the background more often than I'd like to admit, and I'm fluent in sarcasm and dry humor. If that's your vibe, we'll probably get along great.
