As a lifelong observer, I've always moved through the world with curiosity and an appreciation for the details...noticing how light falls on a face, subtle shifts in body language, unspoken emotions. I champion the value of documenting honest stories, meaningful exchanges and real life unfolding...versus perfectly curated scenes, stiff posing and anything forced.

My documentary approach essentially means you're getting a relaxed and flexible experience, the space to be yourselves, and a bit of reassurance and guidance if needed. It allows life to happen naturally, making space for beauty in the ordinary and gratitude for what already is.

I reside in western Washington with my husband, our boys, the best dog (forget the rest, she IS the best) and a flock of spoiled chickens. We are a tight knit crew who enjoy hiking, camping and generally just spending time outdoors.  We are far removed from the daily grind, having geared our lives towards simplicity and quality time.

I'm a mama first, always. I homeschool my boys so we spend each and every day together, I prefer their company over most if I'm being honest. This free, flexible, and unhurried existence we live is a huge testament to my awesome husband who works hard to give us this sweet life.

I'm particularly passionate about: prayer, the ocean, bear hugs, film photos, fantasy books, weekday adventures, iced americanos, raw-unfiltered conversations, holistic health, yoga, and beautiful cinematography. I'm most inspired by empathy, connection, and random acts of kindness.
