As a kid, I went through countless disposable cameras and filled memory cards on my first digital point-and-shoot long before smartphones made it easy. It didn’t take long to realize this hobby was more than just a phase — so I pursued it wholeheartedly, earning my BFA in Photography. Not one to shy away from adventure, I moved straight from Florida to the heart of New York City, where I jumped into photo production and rediscovered just how much I love bringing ideas to life behind the lens.

​

Eventually, I traded skyscrapers for mountains and made Boulder, CO my home, continuing to collaborate with some of the best in the industry. Over the past decade +, I’ve worn nearly every hat on set — production, wardrobe, props, styling, retouching, studio management, you name it. While I enjoy every facet of the creative process, my true passion will always be telling stories through my camera. Nothing beats the magic I feel behind the camera. That’s my true home.

​

These days, I’m excited to be back in sunny Orlando, Florida, soaking up family life and continuing to capture genuine moments for my clients here in my hometown. When I’m not working, you’ll find me biking alongside my energetic 5 year old son, singing & dancing with my 1 year old daughter, snowboarding with my husband (yes, we still find snow!), or planning our next adventure

I believe great photography is equal parts artistry, collaboration, and a little bit of fun along the way. I’d love to help you tell your story — let’s connect and create something beautiful together!
