What’s my story?

I developed an eye for photography when I was 15 and began by photographing families, children, and events. I’ve now been shooting and editing for photographers for 20 years (You do that math ha). I always challenge myself to look for the moments between the shots. I find those candid, unique images are the ones my clients cherish the most.

My family is everything to me they are a constant reminder that memories are important. My number one piece of advice is “get in the shot”. If you’re taking the photo, hand the camera (or phone) off to someone else and put yourself in one or two. I promise it is worth it!

My husband Chris and I live in Charlotte, North Carolina with our 3 kids, Jax, Reese, and Quinn. They keep life busy, our house laughing, and my heart full.
