I've been drawn to photography for as long as I can remember. Growing up I was constantly borrowing my mom's film camera, roping my siblings and friends into impromptu photoshoots, and using up every last frame on the roll. It was never really a hobby - it was just something in my blood. Some things just find you early.
I'm a born and raised Idaho girl, married to my husband Cole, and mom to two boys. When we're not out on a trail or trying a new restaurant, we're probably just navigating the beautiful, messy chaos of family life - which honestly makes me really good at what I do.
During sessions I'm equal parts calm and present. I love people - genuinely. I want to know your story, your kids' names, what makes them laugh. I'm efficient with our time together, but I never rush the moments that matter. For the littles, I've got plenty of tricks up my sleeve to pull out real smiles from even the shyest toddler.
What I want most is for you to feel like you're spending time with a friend who just happens to be really good at freezing the moments you never want to forget. Someone you trust with your newborn, your wild toddlers, and everything in between.
That's what I show up for, every single time.
