I love to capture movement, connection and genuine emotion. Specializing in dance portraits, weddings and lifestyle portraits, I'm drawn to the in-between moments that tell the most meaningful stories. Based in the PNW, I'm endlessly inspired by misty mornings, towering evergreens, and dramatic coastal light. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me chasing adventures with my husband, hanging out with our grown kiddos, or walking three little boston terriers. I bring an easygoing, fun approach to each session focusing on creating images that feel honest, timeless and true to you.

How It began

My photography journey began in 2010 rooted in weddings and love stories. It carried me to Charleston, South Carolina, where i became known for capturing weddings and senior portraits filled with warmth and elegance. When my family moved to Orlando, Florida, my work evolved alongside me- I discovered dance photography and fell in love with movement as a form of storytelling. That passion took me across the globe as an internationally published dance photographer, chasing light, motion and artistry wherever it led me! In 2020, we finally moved to Washington State, where I now create among the evergreens and the wild beauty of the Pacific Northwest- blending every chapter of my journey into the work I make today.
