“Photography is the art of noticing—less about the image itself, and more about the feeling that remains long after.”
Behind the Lens
With over a decade of experience behind the camera and a background in modeling, I’m known for creating an environment where clients feel comfortable, confident, and truly seen. My work is rooted in connection, allowing moments to unfold naturally and resulting in imagery that feels timeless and intentional.
As a mother of four with a foundation in education, I bring patience, warmth, and an intuitive understanding of family dynamics to every session. I’m especially mindful when working with children, creating space for them to be themselves rather than asking them to perform.
When I’m not photographing families, you’ll often find me tending to my garden, practicing pilates, rescuing animals, or advocating for the community I love. I live in Nashville with my family and our rescued pets, and home is where much of my inspiration begins.
I look forward to connecting and creating something meaningful together.
