Hi…I’m so glad you’re here!

You, the dreamers. You, the lovers. You, the busy moms hanging on by a thread. You, the ones wanting to do things a little different. You, the ones who want your stories told as authentically as possible. In your own way.

If there’s a statement I find myself repeating the most, its “it goes so quickly”!

And I mean that wholeheartedly. You will blink and your wedding day is over, your pregnancy done, or your kids are grown overnight. Time is FLEETING. And there are few things more precious than documenting your story as it happens.

We're seeing now, more than ever, a NEED for more authentic and genuine connection. More of the little moments. More life being documented now instead of waiting.

This is where I come in.

Creating Connection. But real life stuff. You, exactly as you are. Your kids in whatever phase they’re going through. Your wedding, and the new traditions you’ll dream up. It’s what I’m most passionate about. I’ve spent years raising kids and exploring remote spots all over the west coast just for my own personal enjoyment. It only makes sense for me to take what I've learned through motherhood and the beautiful locations I’ve visited, and use those skills to help you find the perfect location for your elopement, intimate wedding or session while also putting you at ease in your own skin.

Storytelling is a part of who I am.

I’d love to tell yours.
