While I’ve always been interested in photography, it was my own journey into motherhood that really solidified my passion for documenting families in the early years. The moment I became a mother, I had an overwhelming desire to preserve all the sweetness that comes with motherhood. The tiny toes, the soft ringlet curls, the pitter patter footsteps - all the little details are my absolute favorite. I carry this same passion into each session as I believe every family deserves to have tangible, beautiful memories to hang on your walls, print in albums, and cherish for years to come. 

I reside in our beach inspired home in Virginia Beach with my loving husband, two beautiful daughters (ages 8 and 10), and fur baby Sonny (no seriously, he is SO furry!!) We value quality time together and find ourselves going on bike rides together, exploring local parks, and enjoying sunset picnics on the beach whenever we can. I describe myself as a sentimental mama - always wanting my children to stay small, yet love watching them blossom and thrive. It’s truly a bittersweet and beautiful journey!
