A little about myself...

hi!

I’m so glad you stopped by! To start off, I love to get to know my couples before they book. I want to hear about your love story: how it all started and how you envision your wedding day. Will you be having a traditional wedding ceremony in your hometown church or eloping to the top of a mountain with a few of your closest family members and friends?

Every wedding I’m hired to photograph I put all of myself into. The images I capture are the real moments you can look back on with your grandkids and will take you right back in time. I’m a firm believer in documenting the real moments of your wedding day. Though traditional, posed portraits are still important to capture, my focus is making sure you are comfortable and in the moment with your love through beautiful, candid shots. It’s your day and I am here to help tell your story in both a journalistic and artistic way.

A Little History…

It all started in a classroom in high school (2005) where I learned the magic of Photoshop. I then had my senior portraits taken and loved the experience so much, I wanted to give others that same joy. In 2013, I received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Photography at California State University Sacramento and opened my business. Since 2015, I have primarily shot weddings and engagement sessions. One of the biggest lessons I took away from my education was the importance of telling a story. Documenting and preserving life's special moments while making people smile, laugh, and enjoy the moment is my passion in life. I thoroughly enjoy matcha in many forms and look forward to exploring new destinations. I am a girl who is in love with love stories and can't wait to photograph each beautiful story I am blessed to receive.
