This is my story..

THROUGH YEARS OF TRIALS, HEARTBREAKS, AND PAIN - GOD MET ME WHERE I WAS AND GAVE ME EYES TO SEE BEAUTY THROUGH ALL OF IT. SHIFTING MY FOCUS TO SERVING OTHERS AND DISTRACTING MYSELF BY CAPTURING PEOPLE ON THE HAPPIEST DAYS OF THEIR LIVES PULLED ME THROUGH SOME DEEP TRENCHES, AND NOW, INTO THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE. I WOULD SAY THIS JOB SAVED MY LIFE- BUT WITHOUT GOD, I WOULDN'T OF FOUND THAT LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL I HAD BEEN SO DESPERATELY LONGING FOR.
EXPERIENCING LIFE AS A SINGLE MOM OPENED MY EYES IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. I LEARNED MORE ABOUT MYSELF THAN EVER BEFORE. I AM RESILIENT, I THRIVE IN CHAOS, AND I AM UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING WITHOUT GODS HELP. THE MORE I GREW IN THE PHOTOGRAPHY INDUSTRY, THE MORE I GREW IN MY FAITH, MY CONFIDENCE, AND MY AMBITION QUADRUPLED.
ONCE I STARTED SEEING MORE JOY, I FELT MORE JOY. EVERYTHING JUST "HAPPENED" FROM THAT POINT ON.

I AM A MOM TO MY 4 FAVORITE LITTLE HUMANS; EMERSYN JO, BECKHAM, CHANDLER, AND ARLO..
THEY ARE THE REASON I CONTINUE TO CREATE LIFE LONG MEMORIES FOR ALL MY CLIENTS, I KNOW THAT ONE DAY I WANT MY CHILDREN TO LOOK BACK ON PHOTOS OF THEM AS THEY GREW BUT ALSO THEIR OTHER FAMILY TOO. THEY'RE MY WORLD AND MORE AND I DO THIS JOB FOR THEM!. THEY'VE BEEN MY GREATEST MOTIVATION AND BEST CHEERLEADERS!

I LOVE BEING OUTSIDE IN FRESH AIR, GOING ON WALKS WITH MY KIDS, ALL THINGS FITNESS RELATED, MEETING NEW PEOPLE, CHEESE PIZZA, AND AS MUCH CAFFEINE AS I CAN GET MY HANDS ON.

I AM A BELIEVER OF JESUS, A MOM, A BUSINESS OWNER, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST;
 I AM A PHOTOGRAPHER.

I may have started this business by myself, but I wouldn't be able to keep the ball rolling without these women!

Meet The Team

Each girl you see on this page has an amazing eye for detail and a personality that will leave you with cheeks that are hurting so bad from smiling and laughing all day. The heart of our team is in serving our couples, being all the roles they need us to be the day of the wedding; photographer, emotional support, cheerleader, and whatever else you need us for - we are your girl(s). My goal was to build a team of reliable, resilient, women that know how to catch raw emotion, lend a hand whenever needed, and genuinely love our couples as well as they deserve. 
When I'm unavailable, they fill in as the main photographer. After multiple applicants, I hand picked each of these women with all my couples best interest in mind. I want to have each special day authentically captured and a beautiful story captured for you to look back on for years to come.  Weddings are not a small task, they’re quite a big deal! My team has my full trust and they knock it out of the park time and time again. Leading up to your wedding day, I make sure to include the lead photographer in all of our communication, we will have a meeting together (zoom is great in case we can’t meet in person), and following the wedding day I get the images sent to me. I edit them to send over to you! You deserve images that you look forward to looking back on and seeing on the walls in your home.
