On stage I found exhilaration in bringing stories of human experience to life for an audience. On wedding days I find the act of preserving a story as it unfolds in front of me just as exhilarating. Although my medium of expression has changed, story-telling is still at the root of what I do and it is still the thing that brings me the most joy and sense of purpose. My dance background combined with my empathetic nature allows me to effortlessly anticipate movement and moments of genuine connection throughout wedding day.
The connections I make with my clients are what I value most. I want each couple to feel supported and treasured every time they are in front of my lens. Is no secret that not everyone likes having their photo taken and you can start to feel overwhelmed on a day when all eyes are on you. For that reason, my team and I are a fun and encouraging presence to help keep your connection and joy front and center on wedding day.
As the daughter of two musicians, art was celebrated daily in our home. I followed my passion for the arts to Shenandoah Conservatory where I graduated with a B.F.A. in Dance Performance. I originally took up photography in college to document the dance pieces I created, but once I picked up the camera, I knew it would be part of my life somehow. It is rare that someone finds even one passion in their lifetime and I feel so fortunate to have known two.
My background in dance and art influences my work greatly. I preserve each wedding day with photos that exhibit moments of organic movement, unprompted moments of intimacy and earnest sincerity.

MY FIRST LOVE WAS DANCE
About Our Wedding
Not so long ago, I was in your shoes.
My husband and I tied the knot in Sonoma, California in September 2022. We picked sonoma because it was a place that neither of us had ever visited, but had always wanted to see. We liked the idea of our wedding feeling like a big vacation that we just happened to get married in the middle of.
Our absolute favorite things about our day were how much time we spent together and having all our friends and family in one beautiful place. It was a perfect and easy day. We hired vendors who we trusted completely and the day ran like absolute clockwork. We would do this day over and over if we could.
