INQUIRE TODAY

Welcome to my world

INQUIRE


I’m your wedding Photographer who’s been capturing “holy crap, this is amazing” wedding moments for over 8 years—from the jaw-dropping beauty of Lake Tahoe to dreamy destinations around the world (Italy and Greece to name a couple). I’ve been SO lucky to photograph love in every form, whether it’s barefoot beach weddings, elegant mountaintop ceremonies, or intimate backyard “I do’s.”

As a published photographer, I’ve built a career on turning the chaos, joy, and magic of your wedding day into timeless memories. 

When I’m not behind the camera? I’m soaking up life as a mom. I am someone who believes the best days are full of laughter, adventure, and just a little bit of chaos.

Lake Tahoe is my happy place, and I know this area like the back of my hand (thanks to my Truckee roots!). But my passion doesn’t stop at Tahoe—I’m all about chasing love stories wherever they take me. Whether you’re planning a destination wedding or saying “I do” with Tahoe as your backdrop, I’m here to make sure your day is as fun and unforgettable as your love story deserves.

So, let’s make some magic, laugh way too much, and capture memories that’ll last a lifetime. Sound good? Let’s do this!

My Philosophy

I strive for authenticity in every click, cherishing the soft whispers as much as the unrestrained laughter. While my style borrows from nostalgic film aesthetics, it's the candid and genuine moments that resonate most with me. My perspective, enriched by motherhood, seeks both the world's beauty and its challenges. In every photograph, my aim is for you to see a reflection of real moments and feel a deep sense of connection, evoking the essence of "That's so us."

My family, my tribe

Central to every photograph and cherished moment is my family. My husband, a pillar of strength, consistently stands by my side—sometimes behind the camera as a second shooter, always as my greatest supporter. Together, we've faced the ebbs and flows of life and work, with his belief in me lighting the path. Then there's our daughter, my little wildflower, who bursts through life with an infectious energy and joy. She's my constant ray of sunshine, motivating me to capture beauty in all its forms. With the hope that she'll one day proudly share tales of her photographer mother, I aim to craft images filled with the same warmth and vibrancy she brings to my life.

Photography is my passion

Every photograph carries a weight, a depth of story, significance, or sentiment. It might be a candid laugh, a tearful embrace, or that final photograph with a beloved grandfather. This isn't just about taking pictures—it's about understanding and respecting the gravity of these captured moments. If you feel the profound impact of a preserved memory, if you grasp the depth and lasting imprint of an image, then you know the weight of the work. To me, photography is more than a craft; it's a commitment to honoring and preserving the irreplaceable moments that define us.

Trust is everything when it comes to photography.

Trust is the silent agreement between the photographer and the photographed. It’s the foundation that allows vulnerability to unfold before the lens, turning fleeting moments into cherished memories. When you step in front of my camera, I recognize the profound responsibility I hold. It's not merely about pressing a shutter; it's about understanding, empathy, and a shared journey of creation. Every photograph I take is a testament to the trust you’ve granted me, a commitment I honor by ensuring that each frame reflects not just an image, but a soulful narrative.
