Who am I?
A storyteller with a heart wide open—empathetic, real, and shaped by life’s highs and lows, I use my journey to authentically capture yours.
Hey there! I'm a 42-year-old Nebraska native with a love for the simple things in life—sunsets, chicken coops, dog snuggles, anything outdoors, and chilling with my teenagers. I’m a free spirit who doesn't take life too seriously (because, really, where's the fun in that?). I’ve got two amazing kids—a 19-year-old daughter and a 16-year-old son—who keep life beautifully chaotic. My journey into photography began way back in junior high, laying out yearbook pages and documenting high school memories. After a stint in the legal field that made me question my life choices, I followed my heart and lens into a career that brings me genuine joy every single day.
Why Me?
So, why should you choose me as your photographer? Because I’m not just here to take pretty pictures—I’m here to tell your story. I specialize in newborn photography and documenting the magic of that first year, capturing those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments with heart and honesty. I focus on real, unscripted connection—the giggles, snuggles, and quiet in-betweens that make your family uniquely yours. With me, you’ll get more than just a session—you’ll get a relaxed, fun experience with someone who gets it, who’s been there, and who truly cares about preserving the beautiful mess of real life.
My Wonderful Team
Every day, I proudly staff CHI St. Elizabeth and CHI Bergan hospitals, where a whole lot of adorable babies make their grand entrance into the world. With so many sweet new faces arriving daily, I’ve built a hand-picked team of talented, passionate photographers who share my love for capturing those very first, unforgettable moments.
