Behind the lens is a dedicated mom to a wonderful little boy, Aiden, and a loving wife to my amazing husband, Jake. I'm also a proud sister and a kidney transplant recipient, a journey that has taught me resilience and the value of each moment. Growing up deeply rooted in agriculture, I've developed a profound appreciation for life's simple joys and the natural beauty that surrounds us. These experiences have shaped my perspective and influence my photography, allowing me to capture the authentic, heartfelt moments that truly matter.
I approach each photo session with a spirit of gratitude and a commitment to spreading kindness and joy. Whether it's the intimate moments of a wedding day, the laughter shared during a family session, or the unique stories told through livestock and brand photography, my goal is to create timeless images that you will cherish for years to come. My journey has given me a deep understanding of the importance of preserving memories, and I am honored to be a part of capturing your special moments.

how it started
My journey into photography began in agriculture, where I first picked up a camera as a child. In college, I delved deeper into photography, and after graduation, I traveled to livestock shows across the U.S., refining my skills and discovering my style. At 24, facing kidney disease again, I decided to prioritize my health while pursuing my passion. With unwavering support from family and an amazing husband, I launched my photography business from home. Now, five years post-transplant, with a beautiful baby boy, I'm grateful for the clients who believed in me from the start, shaping my business.
