About Me

Let the kids run free.

I believe in bear hugs and bare feet. I believe windswept hair is it’s own kind of beauty. If there’s water, we’re definitely getting in it.

In my portfolio, you’ll find no complicated props or Pinterest-y set-ups; just authentic moments.

I’m passionate about relaxed photography for laid-back, adventurous families. Forget perfect & polished— that’s not real life and it’s not you! Kids will be kids and I’m happy to embrace the chaos.

If you’re worried about your brood holding still, staying spotlessly clean, and cheesing for my camera— I might not be the right photographer for you, and that’s okay!

My humble ambition for your photo gallery is to leave you with vibrantemotionalartistic images.

So if you’re open to letting things get messy, showering your babies in a thousand tiny kisses, climbing beautiful hills at sunset, and dancing like no one is watching, we might be perfect together.

Sound like exactly what you’re looking for?

A family of three, a man, woman, and a girl, standing on a beach at sunset with a large rocky mountain in the background. Seagulls fly overhead and some are reflected in the water.
