For me, it’s always been about building a legacy

Before anything else, I'm a dreamer. Because of my big dreams and lofty goals, I've always taken the path less traveled. At 17, when most people my age were still in high school, I was attending college for Photography. I started my wedding photography business at 20 and by 23 I was running it full-time. Over a decade later, I'm still creating gorgeous images for couples and families.

Today I'm a Seattle Photographer, small business educator, blogger, wife, mother, and real-life optimist.

I believe in letting your heart guide you. It's what led me to my dream career and to finding and marrying my best friend. I believe in making the most out of life because it's the only one you have. As a Seattle photographer, I believe it is a part of my legacy to create timeless and genuine imagery for couples and families whose love stands the test of time. My goal is that everyone feels welcome and comfortable. In my education business, I help others cultivate the life they've always wanted. To live a life full of intention, joy, adventure, and love.

In my free time you can find me enjoying time with my amazing husband and our daughter, playing with our black cats, reading a new book, or enjoying a cup of coffee.

Motherhood

After becoming a mother firsthand, I understand just how important documenting these precious memories are. It's my goal to create imagery that showcases that real, enduring love between a family.

After becoming a mother myself after years of infertility, I understand firsthand just how important documenting these precious memories are. Your little ones are growing and changing right before your eyes. It's my goal to create imagery that showcases that real, enduring love between a family and lets your little one's personality shine through.
