Hey!
It’s been a little quiet around here since vacation, and then I hit the ground running the second I got back (maybe 6 sessions in one weekend was a little ambitious 🤪), so I thought it would be fun to do a little “get to know me” for anyone new here.
I’m the girl behind the name and camera. I’ve always loved photography and documenting stories, but I never imagined it would grow into what it is today.
My husband and I have worked in full-time ministry for almost 13 years, wearing what feels like every hat imaginable. Along the way, we taught ourselves design, video, photography, and more. We’ve been blessed to use those creative skills both in ministry and in passion projects that fuel us creatively and give back to our community.
Over the years we’ve photographed airplanes for Amazon, captured weddings and elopements across several states, worked with hospitals and local businesses, and many other kinds of random, fun creative work.
I also homeschool our two kids, which is something I’m deeply passionate about and grateful to do.
So when I’m not with my kids or working on projects at church, you’ll usually find me driving to random parks to hang out with all of you… or hiding in my cave (aka my home office) editing away.
People often describe my work as nostalgic, candid, warm, and moody. I’m also kind of known for my work in Hocking Hills, Ohio. I did one elopement there, fell in love with the area, TikTok found it, and it completely changed my business. I still photograph families locally in southwest Ohio, but most of my calendar is now reserved for elopements and micro weddings.
Why photography though?
Nearly 10 years ago, we almost lost my husband to a freak health event. Overnight, life became very fragile and very precious. Stroke survivors and families living with invisible disabilities understand how much it changes everyday life.
Because of that experience, I see photography differently. Every image I capture — the big moments and the ordinary ones — is tangible proof of how beautiful it is to live and love on this side of Heaven.
So thanks for booking me or engaging with my work here on social media - it's truly a dream come true!
