Just a few of the things that are prominently featured in my life.
a little more about me
I LOVE TO BE A MOM:
I am in my young kiddo era. Enjoying mom life: playdate adventures, sharing motherhood tips and tricks with friends, soaking up every giggle and smile from my little ones, cuddling up for those precious baby snuggles, watching them grow, and learning to grow alongside them. Honestly, the list goes on… Being a mom is the most incredible and fun adventure I've ever been on!
IF I WASN’T A PHOTOGRAPHER…
I’d love to be a Director of Photography for films or dive into writing and publishing children’s books. Both roles are about telling stories in a unique way, and I have a passion for that. I find joy in capturing moments, whether through a lens or with words, and bringing a sense of wonder to others. I believe that storytelling, in any form, has the power to connect people and inspire creativity. I’d love to explore how different mediums can convey emotion and imagination, much like photography does for me every day.
MY FAVORITE HOBBY:
Photography! Although its technically my job, I enjoy it so much I also consider it my hobby! I have a special love for capturing the stories of families and couples—meeting new people from around the world and documenting their memories is a thrill. I also love to document my family's story. Being in the photos with my kids, having fun, smiling, and laughing—those are the moments I want to hold onto forever.
I enjoy connecting with others, reading children's books with my kids, listening to music, dancing, and playing board games.
I’M MOST THANKFUL FOR:
I'm most thankful for God and my family, especially my husband and children. I am close with my mom, dad, in-laws, and siblings. Family is everything to me, and I cherish the love and support we share.
