how it all started
I have always loved taking pictures. Over a decade ago when I was in college, my roommate and I loved to go wander around our little town and have photo 'shoots." One day another friend randomly mentioned needing engagement photos and I chimed in that I could do them. That was my first taste of serving a client well during a session. I loved every moment with Mallory and Sam, my very first 'clients.' After I graduated, I used some money to purchase my very first DSLR camera. I also taught 1st grade and eventually chose teaching over a photography business until our son was born. I knew I wanted to stay home with him, but also wanted to help provide income for our family.
The rest is history. Taking pictures for people is truly life-giving to me. I absolutely love preserving special moments for you.
It is such a gift.
