It's important to work with a photographer who is a good fit for you and your brand. Take a look through my photography, read more about me below, and if you think we'd make a good team, contact me and tell me more about yourself.
I believe…
… in being a good person, treating people with respect, and doing the right thing above all else.
… every person has something unique that no one else has, something incredibly special. I value that. That's what I look to photograph.
… showing someone their amazing self can instill self-confidence. And, your self-confident self can change the world.
My passion is capturing your “you” - what makes you come alive. I believe that each person has something incredibly unique to share, and that special quirky factor is what photographs so well.
I’m big on sharing. Here is some of my story.
{Shutter bug} – I began shooting in 2000. I found a mostly functioning Minolta film camera. The light meter was broken so I read the light with my eyes and guessed at my settings. It was a true test and learn environment. I took every class my high school offered and then decided to go to business school for marketing. As a hobbyist, I upgraded to a Canon film camera and eventually a Canon digital camera. In 2011, I went to yoga teacher training and realized that I needed to leave the corporate marketing world and pursue my passion. I started photographing yoga teachers from my training and my business grew organically. I photographed my first wedding in 2013 and left my corporate job in 2014 to run my business full time, focusing on yoga, family and wedding photography. I developed a love for working with amazing entrepreneurs and small business owners and my business now thrives on capturing both service and product based companies.
{Small Business Advocate} - I am here to tell you to follow your passion. Don't focus on the barriers. Focus on what makes you come alive. If you ever need a boost, shoot me a note. I am a firm believer in following your Personal Legend.
{My Gear Bag} – I shoot on the Sony a7R V mirrorless camera and two Canon 5D Mark III’s. I have been in love with my 100mm L f/2.8 for a very long time. If that sounds interesting, you can follow my Pinterest Board to see all of my current gear and visit my Amazon storefront to purchase.
{DIY} - If you follow me on social media, you’ll know that I love a good DIY project. I think it’s a love of art and working with my hands and the satisfaction of saying I made something myself.
{Plant Person} - My home, inside and out, is chalk full of plants. I love propagating houseplants, gardening veggies in the summer, and rescuing plants that aren’t looking too hot. In 2025, I started the Fairfield Community Plant Exchange, a free plant stand where neighbors can drop off and pick up all sorts of plants and gardening materials. It’s amazing to see the community take to this idea. If you’d like to be a part of it, send me a message for the location.
{Let’s start something} – I come from a family of inspirational entrepreneurs and artists, and I shout out their incredible work every chance I get. My sister Laura is a film and media artist, my cousin Jessica founded The Brave Collection and Zahava, my Aunt Dawn owns Peridot Fine Jewelry, my Aunt MaryEllen is a fine art Photographer, and my cousins Eva and Sam head up their band Charly Bliss.
{Inclusivity} - I love working with all people - all races, genders, sexual orientations, and abilities. Reach out. I am an ally.
{Pronouns} - I use the pronouns she/her/hers.
