let’s get a little more personal:)

How did I get into photography you ask? Well, I’d say it was a high-school breakup, a flight to Colorado, a celebrity makeup artist, and my encouraging grandparents who did my first photoshoot.

My grandpa’s lifelong career was in photography, and when I was 15 years old— feeling a little down on myself— I took a trip to visit them. After some longer talks about confidence and accepting who I was, they took me shopping, got me my hair and makeup done, and captured some of the best photos of myself I’ve ever had.

From this point on, I realized though focusing on “looks” is shallow, our bodies are also a beautiful reflection of who we are and how we feel about ourselves on the inside. Feeling good about myself was seldom. So this entire experience made me realize what a little confidence can do for the heart.

It’s because of this realization, that I want to give that back to you in the best ways I know how. Whether it’s your wedding day, your family photos with your three crazy kids, your newborn session where you might not feel your best, or your professional headshot because your last one was 10 years ago…

I am here for it all— just give me a shot (pun intended;)
