About Me

First and foremost I am a Jesus follower. He blessed me with the talent and eye I have for photography, and I am so thankful to be using those talents session after session.

My husband and I joke about how much I change when I’m behind the camera. I become confident and passionate and you'd most likely never guess I'm an introvert. I think many creatives classify themselves as introverts on a daily basis, but we have this hidden extrovert when we’re in our element. 

Photography is my element. I love creating images that help us remember all the milestones in our lives and the people that played a role in creating those memories. My images are colorful and edited in a way that they’ll stand the test of time. Many trends come and go but true color edits won’t age with the trends. 

Photographs are memories in physical form. How often do you look back to remember a loved one and it’s a photograph you hold? I personally have a photograph of my dad and I on my nightstand. He passed away when I was young and I remember him, and have been told many stories about him, through photographs. This is why I do what I do. Photographs are often all we have to remember very significant moments in our lives, as well as loved ones we used to be able to hold near and dear. 

From the moment you decide you want me as your photographer, I’m delighted and look forward to learning your story and about the details of your day. I care about a wedding day as if I were planning my own wedding again. Intricate details, family dynamics, the tears, the people we wish could be there. Every. Single. Detail. I will be there to catch all the formal moments, but also those in between laughs, tears and behind the scenes moments you may not be witnessing.

FAVORITE PHOTO SEASON: FALL

My photography journey began in 2015 when I bought my first camera. I had just graduated high school and bought a $350 Nikon camera kit from my local Meijer. I mostly took pictures of nature and bugs at first, it was when I became an intern for my photography professor that I really found my passion for photography. From my first wedding to today, I’m thankful for the eye and talent God gave me to take photographs. 

Outside of photography

some interesting things about me

I love cars and own a 1979 Mustang. It's been in my family for four generations and I taught myself to drive a manual transmission over 6 years ago. 

I play the flute and enjoy playing in the orchestra at my church on Sunday's

My favorite flowers are dahlias. I grow them each year in my garden and, of course, am obsessed if they're used in florals at a wedding.

My Love Story

I married the love of my life in September of 2019. Jacob and I have actually known each other since we were little kids. We used to play together in our homeschool group, but our families both moved away from each other. Our families eventually rekindled our friendship 10 years later, but Jacob and I rekindled a little more than a friendship.
