Love unfiltered. Moments, unscripted. 

Self-embodiment sessions are a powerful way to reconnect with yourself and celebrate your individuality. These shoots go beyond traditional portraiture, offering a transformative experience that encourages self-expression and personal growth.

In these sessions, we collaborate to create images that reflect your authentic self, embracing your body, spirit, and journey. Whether you're marking a personal milestone, overcoming challenges, or simply seeking to see yourself in a new light, these shoots are tailored to your unique story.

My approach is supportive and empowering, guiding you through poses and prompts that help you feel comfortable in your own skin. The result is a collection of images that serve as a testament to your strength, beauty, and resilience – a visual affirmation of your whole self.

As a photographer, I believe in documenting life's transformative moments. Beyond weddings, I offer maternity and newborn photography, celebrating the profound journey into parenthood. My approach to these intimate sessions is rooted in authenticity and empowerment.

For maternity shoots, I focus on creating a space where expectant parents feel confident and radiant. These sessions go beyond traditional poses, aiming to capture the strength, vulnerability, and anticipation unique to this fleeting period.

Newborn photography requires a delicate touch and patience. I work at your family's pace, ensuring a comfortable environment for both parents and baby. My goal is to document those precious early days, preserving the tiny details and tender moments that pass all too quickly.

Whether you're embarking on marriage, welcoming a new life, or marking a milestone in between, I'm here to create lasting visual narratives of your most significant chapters.

Nature is my greatest muse and the ultimate source of inspiration. I explore the editorial and storytelling side of photography; I have a deep passion for capturing movement and celebrating the fluid and ever-changing nature of love; before during and after your wedding day.

I dive all in. I help you tell your story, and when we meet face to face, it’s not as strangers, but as friends. 

It’s all about connection

Let’s Create Magic  Together

A few things about me // I have three beautiful children // two cats, Leo and Tolstoy // I could spend an entire day buried in a book // Quiet mornings with coffee are the best way to start the day // you can find me climbing the Teton Mountain Range and seeking out all the type two fun.
