  • We’re celebrating TEN years with a big announcement!

    March 2, 2018

    Ten years ago, I graduated from college, started my first & only full-time job, quit after three months & decided I would never work for anyone else again. I opened my first credit card, bought an iMac, Adobe license, & Canon Rebel. All of it was so thrilling & so terrifying; I felt like I…

    January 28, 2018

    Another beautiful winter engagement session! I just love when my couples are up for a bit of adventure, and don’t mind the cold weather. Natalie, Chris, & I lucked out with a stunningly sunny (albeit freezing) January day for their e-sesh. We chased the last little bit of snow all the way to East…

    January 12, 2018

    Right after New Years, I kicked off my 2018 shooting schedule with Justin & Krista! We met at Remedy House, the newest addition to the Five Points neighborhood on the West Side. This amazing little coffee shop is such a dream, and was the perfect spot to warm up before we headed out into…

    December 20, 2017

    We ended our 2017 wedding season in the most magical way! We had a double-header weekend with two incredible couples, and two truly unique weddings. We loved that Tanya & Wally’s wedding highlighted aspects of their blended Ukrainian, Polish, and Hawaiian heritages. Their day was also made extra special thanks to the presence of…

    December 17, 2017

    Last month, we celebrated with this gorgeous pair! We had the most wonderful day with Ashley & Joe, in spite of the below-freezing temps! Don’t let the autumnal sunlight in their photos fool you; it was absolutely bitter outside. But, they were total troopers, and kept each other smiling throughout their day. For their…

06.30 | Last day of June, soaking in country air at my favorite place 😍 

It’s wonderful to reflect on how this practice brought me back to the basics… I haven’t created non-client/non-iPhone photos in so long. It was a joy to slow down + *play* with color, composition + creating, without an end goal in mind.

As a true portrait photographer, it was a challenge at first to find inspiration in non-human subjects - YOUR energy is such a big part of my work! This practice has retrained my brain + I find myself pausing to enjoy little vignettes wherever I go now 🤩 

It’s a gift to see the world so beautifully + perhaps, you’ll try this too? ♥️
