ABOUT ME
I believe the best photographs come from real connection. When people feel comfortable, seen, and at ease, the moments that unfold in front of the camera become honest, soulful, and deeply meaningful.
For more than eight years, I have had the honor of photographing weddings of all kinds, from elegant celebrations in Wine Country to intimate backyard gatherings and coastal elopements. No matter the setting or the size of the celebration, I approach every wedding with the same level of care, dedication, and heart.
Your wedding day celebrates everything that has brought you to this moment. A story shaped by adventure, growth, and a deep commitment to one another. No two stories are the same, and the way your day is documented should reflect that.
My approach is personal and rooted in trust. I take the time to truly get to know my clients so that when the day arrives, you can simply be present with the people you love most. I will gently guide when needed, step back when the moment calls for it, and document your story as it naturally unfolds.
The result is timeless imagery that reflects who you are, the connections you share, and the moments that matter most.
Dig Deep
Where it all began
I was raised by incredible artists, a garden architect and a designer who worked in mosaic, pottery, and stained glass. We didn’t grow up with much money, but we were surrounded by color, texture, and thoughtful design. Beauty filled our home and gardens, and that early exposure continues to shape how I see light, composition, and detail today.
As an only child, I grew up observing. Listening. Reading the room. My community became an extension of family, and I developed a deep curiosity about people, their stories, their relationships, and the quiet moments that reveal who they truly are.
That curiosity is what draws me so strongly to weddings and family photography. The layered connections, the emotion, the history. It all matters.
Why photography matters to me
After losing our home in the Sonoma Glass Fire, and later losing both of my parents, I came to understand just how fleeting and precious life can be and how powerful photographs truly are.
When the dust settles, it is these frozen moments that remain. Windows into the people, places, and emotions that define us.
Photography, for me, is more than a profession. It is a way of honoring what matters most.
Whether it is a wedding day or an ordinary afternoon with the people you love most, these are the moments that shape your story. And as time moves forward, it is the photographs that remain.
Quiet, powerful reminders of what matters most.
MY LOVES
Photography
Nature + The Ocean
Living in Northern California, we split our time between Santa Rosa and Gualala, balancing the beauty of wine country with the pull of the coast. The ocean has always been a place where I reset, reflect, and reconnect. From Sea Ranch to the rugged stretches of the Sonoma Coast and Mendocino Coast, nature continues to shape the way I see, feel, and tell stories.
Friends, Family + Stanlee
The people I love are at the center of everything. My friends, family, and my wirehaired rescue pup, Stanlee, keep me grounded and remind me to slow down, laugh often, and appreciate the little things.
Building, Design + Real Estate
I’ve always loved spaces, architecture, and thoughtful design. I bought my first home at 23 and have owned five since, and along the way discovered a real passion for renovation. I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty and truly enjoy bringing a vision to life. Creating spaces that feel beautiful, lived in, and full of personality brings me so much joy.
Wildly Rooted
Traveling the world has deepened my perspective and continues to shape the way I see beauty, connection, and storytelling. But just as much as I love exploring new places, some of my favorite moments are the simple ones , a cozy game night with friends and family, good food, lots of laughter, and a little friendly competition. Those are the moments that fill my cup, too.
Adventure
Outside is where I feel most at home. Whether it’s biking backroads, hiking coastal trails, snowboarding in the mountains, or lately playing more disc golf than I ever expected, I’m happiest when I’m moving and exploring. Whenever possible, my husband Chris and I escape in our Airstream, chasing scenic roads and wide open landscapes that continue to fuel my creativity behind the camera.
