The magic of light in photography has always fascinated me, as well as the language people speak though expressions. So much is said with a look, and typically that is what I find people to be the most honest. I LOVE capturing silly faces, smiles, and loving gazes. Especially of my family. But there is always that balance we try to find, to be “IN THE MOMENT” so we miss things, and at times I have to say to myself “Mental Click.” These are the times I try to hold a beautiful moment to memory, and capturing my family in-between can trigger those mental clicks I have captured over the years.

Over the past 20+ years as a photographer, I have had the privilege of marriage and motherhood, I am an auntie, dog mom, cat mom, and have learned to not kill a plant if it is outside in a garden. And all these experiences have shaped the way I see the world, given me patience, and have allowed me to see what images stand up to time and what is a fun fad. I have played with other photographers, managed studios, taught others my tips and tricks, and have never once wanted to give up my camera for good. It is so much fun and an honor when someone asks me to capture a session for them. I love every moment of it, from planning to editing. Each session is as unique as the person I am shooting, and it so much fun to get to know my clients. I look forward to meeting you and your family, and hopefully get to hear about some of your own mental clicks you have gathered over the years.
