Let me confess a few things.  I have almost crashed my car while driving (multiple times) because I’m gawking at the amazing light around me.  Sometimes, the night before a shoot that I’ve been looking forward to,  I get so excited that I can’t sleep.  I drink way too much coffee.  My hair might be a different color each time you see me.

I love my job!  I get to do something new every day and meet wonderful people in the process.  I see incredible beauty all around me, wherever I look, and my goal with my photography is to help others see that same beauty.  I love to travel in general, and I would be delighted to travel locally, nationally, or internationally to photograph your wedding, engagement session, family portraits, senior portraits, modeling portfolio… anything!  Let’s go!

I fell in love photography while on a trip to Russia in middle school.  I was with a group of friends and we were walking through a rural village when we came across an old woman selling jars of honey on the side of the road.  “Look at those colors!” a friend whispered to me.  “I wish I wasn’t out of film!”  I looked at the old lady and I saw it: jars of amber colored honey glowing in the sunlight, red headscarf, bright blue blouse, green patterned shawl, a scuffed brown table.  At that moment, I wished I had a camera, and I wished I knew how to use it.  When I got home, I bought my first camera (an old Pentax), and things have never been the same.
