I want to get to know the real you and what your love is all about. I thrive on documenting your story in a authentic way that reflects who you are as a couple.
I not only want to capture your story in a beautiful and unique way, but what's even more important is that I want to make sure it as authentically you as possible. A huge way I can do this is by making sure we connect on a personal level before you ever step in front of the camera.

I am a full time wedding photographer living in the beautiful gem state of Idaho. I am absolutely a homebody that also loves to explore new places. Mountains captivate me but I also can appreciate a good ocean view. My titles are now wife and mother, and I am so blessed for that.
I prefer my paths to be dirt, but will travel on horseback, off road tires, skis or in the ocean with scuba gear. I love country music, I am not a morning person, love working out, I will always prefer to dress cozy, I believe can never have enough pillows and blankets in your house, I have backyard chickens, a couple raised garden beds and love making sourdough bread.
My interest in photography came from my late father who loved all things tech and past down cameras and video cameras to me. From there I grew a passion for documenting life through the lens of a camera for more than half my life. My real life experience with photography began with my first job at Kodak (16yo), a single college photography class, to taking grad and portrait photos of my friends, to shooting couples and eventually gaining the confidence to take on weddings.
Being a hopeless romantic, shooting weddings comes natural and it honestly never gets old. I still get teary-eyed over vows, first dances and simply seeing soulmates marry their best friends. Marriage is our most cherished, magical gift and to be apart of them brings me absolute JOY to be able to do this as my job!
I met this handsome fella named Brian in college, after I coincidentally sat next to him in class. He was so cute, charming and really funny. Obviously the rest is history because I was hooked. For our first official date, we jumped out of a plane?? I knew in that moment, he was going to be my forever adventure buddy. He’s the most hardworking, dedicated person I have ever met. He always says 'YES' to my crazy ideas. He helped me gain the confidence I needed to take on weddings and take on photography full time.
We welcomed Haylee in March, 2024. She decided to make her debut a day after my birthday. She is the sweetest, happiest, smiley girl. We are in love and has been the perfect addition to our family. Motherhood has been my favorite chapter yet.
Remi (left) and Ryder (right) are our pups. Remi is the social, puppy for life. While Ryder, who goes by Ry Girl is our anti social shy girl. They are absolutely inseparable and bring us so much joy.
In addition to dogs, we also have 8 backyard chickens. I'd like to call myself a suburban homesteader.
