documenting real love
in real time.
meet your photographer
I was born & raised as a desert kid and although I’ve lived in & traveled to some really beautiful places, Arizona’s desolate landscapes continue to inspire me above all others.
I’ve always been passionate about transforming overlooked moments and materials into meaningful or useful things.
& I never feel out of place in the process of seeking out and capturing the interactions of light and landscape or the candid moments that we may not recognize the beauty in if not rendered in a photograph.
While I get fulfillment from creating in many spaces—such as the kitchen, where I love to combine wholesome and colorful ingredients, or with my wardrobe, where I love to blend my recent thrift store finds with my favorite pair of cowgirl boots to make outfits that are both wearable stories and expressions of my love for the southwest—there is no doubt that being behind the camera & documenting moments of meaning for others is my artistic home space.
I collaborate best with couples and people who appreciate the candid moments that unfold through connecting with one another; people who feel nostalgic for the present moment; people who strive to be present with family and friends; and people that trust me to discover what’s honestly beautiful about themselves & in their lives.
Arizona based wedding & couples photographer for the lovers.
There’s no need for perfect poses, perfect weather, perfect outfits, or a perfect location to capture the perfect memory. It’s about a snapshot in time - those photos that allow you to hold a feeling in your hands.
The in-between moments, long glances, hands folding into one, warm embraces, and the comfort that comes with loving so deeply.
In the words of Dorothea Lange, "THE CAMERA IS AN INSTRUMENT THAT TEACHES PEOPLE HOW TO SEE WITHOUT A CAMERA.” A friendly reminder that some of the most mundane moments captured in a photograph are the ones that end up meaning the most to us. You stop chasing the big shiny things and start valuing the little things--quality time with your loved ones, long walks, genuine laughter, and comfort. Simplicity is the ultimate goal.
