My love for photography started when I was small. At summer camp when I was about 8, a counselor handed me a film camera and sent me off to photograph something that made me feel joy. I immediately loved looking at the world in this new way and catching moments and holding them still. While I started my career in corporate meeting and events management, deep down I always had this pull to make my love for photography more a daily presence. After the birth of my first daughter (and my passion for capturing her every waking - and sleeping! - moment) I decided to make a career change. Celebrating over 8 years in business this year, I am immensely grateful to all of my clients for entrusting me with their special moments. I am also a wife to my best friend, mother to two amazing girls and one sweet little man.
WHAT INSPIRES ME
As a Washington DC photographer I am drawn to the look of film photography, of watercolor paintings, to pastel sunsets and colors, and to delicate and soft textures. I love golden hour light and watching how it can change everything around it as it moves in and out, and from season to season. I am an extrovert through and through. I love people and learning about people. I love seeing joy, love, emotion, connections, all of it. I love little details, learning about your personalities, your family story, and creating images and beautiful heirlooms and art that remind you of treasured moments of time.
