Artistic approach
Preserving moments & creating lasting art
While I love the energy and collaboration of working with a creative team on set, I also cherish the intimacy of documenting families in their homes, celebrating engagements, and capturing weddings. Every session tells a unique story, and I love being trusted to preserve those moments. At the heart of everything I do is a love for creating meaningful, lasting art. Photography has the power to make people feel seen, celebrated, and connected, and that's what inspires me every day. My goal is to create timeless images that will be treasured and remembered for generations to come.

My why
Well-rounded & multifaceted photography
I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion Photography from Columbia College Chicago, where I spent four years developing both the technical and creative skills that shape my work today. Throughout my education, I had the opportunity to learn from talented industry mentors in both studio and on-location settings, gaining hands-on experience in lighting, directing, production, and managing photo shoots. My education taught me to be a well-rounded, multifaceted photographer with the confidence to adapt to a wide variety of creative environments. After graduating, I discovered a passion for photography that extends far beyond fashion and lifestyle.

My why
When not behind the camera
When I'm not behind the camera, you'll most likely find me traveling, spending quality time with family & friends or dancing at a concert. I grew up as a dancer, and movement has always been one of my favorite forms of self-expression—it's carried into adulthood through fitness and staying active, keeping me grounded and energized. It's also why I love working with dancers and fitness professionals, capturing the strength and artistry in every movement. I'm also a huge music lover and always chasing new places and experiences when I travel. When I'm home, you'll find me watching films—paying attention to the cinematography, color grading, lighting, and soundtrack. Those creative details inspire me, and they naturally shape the way I approach photography.

Shoot days are full of movement, emotion, laughter and light. The images I create are classic and clean with an edge that isn’t tied to a trend. Photos you’ll still love in 10 years. I’m so fortunate to capture the moments that catch my eye and mean so much to my clients. Getting to connect and create with new faces is something I cherish deeply.
My style & aesthetic
Organic yet timeless – that means natural light, candid moments, and letting things unfold on their own rather than over-directing.
