The Experience
IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS
AUTHENTIC, JOYFUL, GENUINE
I pride myself on prioritizing client experiences so much so that I want you to leave my sessions feeling more confident and excited to see your images. I document life's authentic and joyful moments -- anywhere from a senior session, to a fresh 48 session. I want you to feel welcomed, seen, heard, and celebrated when working with me.

Frequently asked questions
01. Do you offer mini sessions?
Yes! My mini sessions are announced over on my social media pages. These have limited spots, and are only typically offered seasonally for a short period of time. However, I do have an all-year round 30-min. session available for booking.
02. what's the Best time for photos?
The hour before sunset is typically my preferred time to shoot. You get the vivid warmth backlight from golden hour, illuminating your images with a soft haze. Lighting is a HUGE part of photography and a large priority of mine.

Currently I am only traveling as far as Kansas City to St. Louis and everything in between. I do not offer out of state services.
