My passion for photography started as a child. My parents bought me cameras and I would take pictures of the people and things that I loved. I used to love to edit my photos on PicMonkey — if you know you know—... classic 2010s vibes were my thing with the overly edited photos and vignette around the edges. It makes me cringe now to think about it, but back then it brought me so much joy and it continues to now as well!

THE HEART  BEHIND THE CAMERA

CONNECT WITH ME

LETS CAPTURE YOUR STORY

I lost my grandpa at the end of September 2024. Photos are all I have of him now, and it made me realize even more how timeless and important photographs are. I understand how important it is to freeze time through photography. I want to capture and freeze time for you. I want to create photographs that you’ll look back on for years and years to come. Photographs become our most prized possessions when they are all we have left.

Stories Matter

My love languages are physical touch & quality time. 

I have a fear of heights, the dark, and bees.

I have 9 tattoos and counting!! I eventually want to have a sleeve on my right arm! Most of my tattoos have meaning behind them.

I am a bodybuilder. I have a passion for lifting weights! I found the passion 8 years ago when I got hired at a gym to work in the daycare. I had a free membership so I decided one day that I was going to utilize it and I fell in love with it. October of 2023 I competed in my first bodybuilding show in the bikini division. I loved it so much- the dedication, the commitment, the rewarding feeling.

I am the oldest of 3. I have a younger sister (3years younger) and brother (5 years younger)!

I have 16 cousins on one side of the family! So I come from a big family and lots of chaos and love!

I have a deep love and passion for baking! My favorite thing to bake is cookies! I also love gardening in the spring and summer! I found so much peace in gardening.

I am a summer girly… I am that person that hates being cold and would rather be hot. Give me a sunny, no clouds, 90 degree day and I will be a happy girl!! 

I have a bachelor’s degree for Early Childhood Education and Special Ed. 

I am an ambivert. I am very introverted when I first meet people. Once i warm up and am comfortable, I am very extroverted. 


I am an aunt to two precious babies—they call me LaLa! Octavia & a soon to be in June. Being an aunt is my most favorite hat to wear and is the most exciting & fun thing I get to be a part of.  My niece is a year and a half old with another soon to be niece on the way! But being an goes beyond my siblings' children… My best friend’s child is also my nephew. My heart explodes with so much joy, love, and admiration for their innocent and sweet selves. Seeing the world through their eyes, feeling the depths of their love and security is a joy that I hold near and dear to my heart. 

I am very emotional person… especially when it comes to the people & things that I love. I will cry at other people crying. I will cry tears of joy over happy & proud moments. I am an empath at my core.

My favorite color is purple!! Fun fact: my first car was Barney purple and I loved it!

Christmas!!! There’s nothing like some holiday cheer!! Reminds me of when I was a child… so much love, joy, and cheer! So many fun and exciting things… the lights, movies, baking, family, presents, fun drinks!! I sometimes get a little too excited about Christmas time and Christmas spirit that I will cry of happiness lol Silly, but that’s just how much I love it! 

Though I don’t watch much TV I do have some favorites… My favorite show is The 100, Manifest, & The Office. My favorite movie series is Divergent! 

I am a water girly… I drink a gallon a day religiously. But I also love Dr. Pepper. My favorite alcohol is Tito’s or Trulys.

COFFEE ORDER

MUSIC

 Christmas might be my favorite holiday, but Spring & Summer are my favorite seasons! I love Spring because of the warmer weather & flowers blooming! Summer time is a favorite because of pretty sunsets, barbecues, sunburns, & being poolside.

My taste in music varies. I grew up listening to every genre (thanks dad) so I have a diverse taste in music, which I love! My favorite artists include Tate McRae, Morgan Wallen, Chris Brown, MGK, and Lincoln Park. My absolute favorite song in the world is Old Time Rock & Roll by Bob Segar! See… told you I have a diverse taste in music!

I love coffee! I go through phases where I love iced coffee and then I love hot coffee. My go to orders are cold brew with sugar free white chocolate syrup, almond milk, and cold foam.

I do not like to discriminate against desserts… I love sweets! I tend to lean more towards cookies though than other desserts! If it’s a cookie or chocolate, count me in!!

One thing about me… if there’s pizza involved I will be there! My go to order is pepperoni, cheese and banana peppers (and lots of them)! But my all time favorite is bacon and cheese with no sauce, yes I said no sauce, from a local pizza shop in my hometown!
