I am always honored to capture people’s most cherished moments in life.


 
 

16 years later and here I am, blessed beyond belief living my best life as an award-winning photographer here on the beautiful Central Coast of California.


Over the years I have attended several world-renown photography seminars, taken classes from the best in the industry, and shot alongside some of the most sought-after wedding and portrait photographers in the world. I have also taught photography workshops, been a mentor, and am regularly invited to give presentations about my photography career.

My business has taken me to several states to photograph weddings and portraits throughout the years. I am always honored when I get to travel far and wide to capture some of people’s most cherished moments in life. Some of my favorite wedding destinations have been traveling to Hawaii, Alaska, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina and New Orleans to capture these amazing love stories.

When I am not behind the camera you can find me...

Hanging out with my husband and family. I am blessed with 3 amazing boys and happy to share that all three of them are Eagle Scouts. My oldest two boys are Marines so I am one proud Marine Mom, to say the least.

The great outdoors

I try to spend as much time outdoors because hiking, walking along the beach with our dogs, wine tasting, and entertaining with friends in our backyard is what I live for. People are my Passion!

A few of my favorite things...

Must-Have- At least one cup of coffee daily

Can’t live without-  God, Family, Friends, my fur babies, and chocolate

Dream Vacation- 2 weeks off on a tropical island

Proud Moments- I have 3 incredible boys and all 3 are Eagle Scouts. 2 of them are Marines

Fun Fact-  I was the very 1st baby born in Kodiak, Alaska at the only Hospital on the island. As a matter of fact it wasn’t completely finished when my amazing Mom delivered me. Yep, I was born in a make-shift maternity room.

Think we're a great fit
