It is nice to meet you! 

​

If you're anything like me, you feel a little...awkward...in front of the camera.

And if your family is anything like mine, you may have some...concerns...about how well they'll cooperate with a photographer.

​

I get that.

​

That's why I take so much pride in making these shoots fun.  Over the years, I've developed a bag of tricks I use to draw out your natural expressions so that our photos truly capture your essence, or to even get your pets attention and to look at the camera.

 

 I'm a wife, mom, daughter, sister and a well-known Wonder Woman (I have been called a time or two). 

​

I love the beach and to travel with my family. I am a coffee lover and can drink it at any time of day! My favorite movie is National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. I love to quote movies as well. LOL I look for magic in everyday life, I look for the good in everything. I am a calm, caring, kind, positive person. I am really into building people up, Being around positive vibes only! Being Kind!  You never know what someone may be going through and showing kindness can impact a person forever! I recently had been told that by a client, my vibe, compassion, my heart and expressing my emotions with her during a difficult time this client had, will stick with her forever! 

 

I have always had a passion for animals and photography. I guess you could say.....I really LOVE people and animals and spending time with them in several  different avenues. I can serve in their personal life, provide health, or share their special occasions through pictures!  I am blessed to be in such a place, doing what I LOVE!

​

When I am not holding my camera, I have the privilege of working as a full time Veterinary Assistant on a surgery team at a local Veterinary Emergency and Specialty Hospital. I know what you are thinking, How do I do it all? I like to stay busy. I have the best of both worlds! I have a wonderful family, I get to work with animals and save lives. Animals are great therapy for anyone at any time! I have been working with animals since High School. I then own my Photography business and get to meet some amazing people along the way! I have the privilege of capturing life's biggest moments and freezing them in time on a photo! These will be things you can pass down to all generations in your family. Photos will be what you have left. I ask that you do not wait for special occasions to capture photos, since you also would like proof that you lived life in between such events as well!

I have always had a heart for Photography and once my husband picked up on my love for photos, he bought my first camera. My business has taken off since then! I am a self taught dreamer, with excitement and passion for capturing life's most precious moments.

 

I truly believe that people and animals pick up on your vibe! If you are calm and collected, they are calm and collected. I have been told many times, I have those calming vibes! This may sound weird to some, but this is also for newborns. During my sessions, the newborn can sense my vibe. I can say when I first started working with newborns, I was so nervous and they can totally pick up on that! Now, having years of experience and confidence, they pick up on that now also, and they are calm and collected, because I am calm and collected.
