I'm just a college graduate trying to persue her dreams whilst paying the bills. I have several other part time jobs:
1. working hospitality at a retreat center in the middle of the National Forest
2. working as a challenge course ropes instructor
3. getting paid to take people's pictures (this job I like the best!)


I feel really fortunate that my career is doing what I love: taking pictures. I love my handsome bearded fellow, Jared, and my dog, Oliver the Beagle. I have fantastic friends, family members, and room mates that encourage me to persue my passion.

I specialize in all wedding related events and creative protraiture: engagements, families, seniors, head shots, and just-for-fun-to-make-yourself-feel-pretty.

I am revisiting a project I started last year, documenting designs found with nature. My boyfriend, Jared, has started catching me unusual looking insects for me to photograph. I stick them in my freezer so they won’t move around while I photograph them (I’m still not sure how my roommate feels about this haha). These are of a luna moth found outside my house at night. I feel that the black and white allow the viewer to really focus on the details, yet the color in the moth is so fantastic as well. I think I might use the color photograph in another project I’m working on later. I hope you enjoy. There will be more of these to come…I currently have a dragonfly, honeybee, weird caterpillars and a walking stick hanging out in my freezer :)
