Colorado is home — its landscapes, seasons, people, and slow magic have shaped how I see the world. It’s where I’ve grown into myself, found the love of my life, and collected the moments that matter most. This place has evolved in countless ways — it's helped make me who I am.
My family, Blue (the dog!) and Harry (the husband!) are my everyday joys — they keep me grounded and supported and laughing. Aside from that, I’m happiest when I'm seeing live music, moving my body with dancing or yoga, playing cards, traveling, and immersing myself in nature. I LOVE spotting wildlife (goose bumps every time, even when it's a bunny), listening to rushing rivers, and lingering in life's moments that feel alive and make me feel the same.
Life moves fast, and I try not to miss it. I lead with gratitude, follow joy when I find it, and stay present and curious — always.
I’ve always loved photography — the way it slows time and lets us hold onto a feeling long after the moment has passed. When an image brings you right back to how it felt? That’s the magic I’m chasing.
Weddings are where my heart lives. The nervous excitement, the quiet exhales that shift into the most genuine smiles, the way joy shows up in unexpected places. I take a documentary-first approach, focusing on real moments as they unfold, with thoughtful direction when it’s helpful — never forced, never stiff.
Engagements, families, maternity, quiet mornings, wild adventures — I love it all. Whether we’re celebrating a milestone or simply the season you’re in, my goal is the same: for you to feel comfortable, seen, and fully yourself.
When I’m behind the lens and you’re in front of it, you’re free to be exactly who you are. I’m here to co-pilot your vision and document the moments you’ll want to remember forever.
