In photography and in life, always look for the light, if you don’t see it, 

Bring it.

voted best photographer in dekalb county

As a Midwest wedding and portrait photographer specializing in weddings and boudoir photography, I aim to capture stories and spaces that carry their own depth, emotion, and inspiration.

Nice to meet you

about

Welcome to my colorful corner of photography! With over 15 years of experience in crafting timeless imagery.  My approach is infused with a dash of goofiness and a sprinkle of my personality. I’m a quirky, neurodivergent creative who thrives on chasing inspiration wherever it takes me. Ever since I can remember, design and art have been woven into the fabric of my life. I’m captivated by composition, drawn to unique perspectives, and fascinated by how piecing together images can evoke powerful feelings and emotions.

While my work has evolved, one thing has remained constant: my belief that photos are more than just something to see—they’re something to feel and experience. I love people. I’m endlessly curious about their strengths, their stories, and their unique beauty. Through my photography, I hope to help heal weaknesses, celebrate bravery, and uncover the confidence waiting within. I see people differently—focusing on their character, compassion, and the quiet moments that reveal who they truly are. When I meet someone, I immediately have a vision of what we’ll create together. My process thrives on authentic conversations that often blossom into lasting friendships. I live for brave smiles and the kind of vulnerability that transforms a simple session into something meaningful.

My passion lies in art, film, and creative collaboration, but my heart is in documenting the beautifully raw, everyday moments that often go unnoticed. I love uncovering the extraordinary in the seemingly ordinary, finding magic in connections, interactions, and quiet details of life.
