It wasn't until I tore my ACL the beginning of my junior year playing basketball that everything changed. That's when I signed up for to be on the Yearbook committee in high school. It was the first time I ever looked outside of a very narrow box of focus and stepped into something fun and completely different. 

Somehow, that same year, I won an award for Best Sports Photo in the US and little did I know that pursuing photography in college would lead me to the best job ever because my life changed yet again in 2011.

Enter the First Wedding I ever photographed in 2011 for a college roommate who I still don’t know how to thank properly for handing me a path to my future. 

Forward 7 years full time and over 100 or so weddings later, you could say I’m hooked and in love with love. Now, I get to spend my weekends capturing one of the brightest days of a couple’s lives together and it’s simply the best!

My journey in wedding photography isn't your typical story. It all started as a teeny weeny little (but not so little because I was already 5'10) 8th Grader on my first trip to Alaska,.

I went through 20 rolls of film in that one, 3-week period of time while we traveled all over the lower parts of Alaska. I couldn't stop trying to capture everything! I even had to to buy more film while there!

I NEVER grew up thinking I would be a photographer and this trip made me think that I "maybe-sorta-kinda-liked" photography.

However, even though I had found something I really loved doing, I didn't pick a camera for another 3 years because I played several sports like basketball & volleyball, I was in marching band, and was working hard for good grades. Oh, and I never in a million years thought I could ever actually have a fun career. Truthfully.
