I have been a photographer quite literally my entire life. I started messing around with my moms camera when I was only 7 y/o and was gifted my first kodak digicam for my eighth birthday. Since then I have invested years of my life to learning and growing into my personal photography style. I do find that even now I am constantly evolving and enjoying new styles but the same thread of relaxation within my photos holds. I do my best to make all couples and people feel at easy during shoots and hopeful it is a fun experience and we can all enjoy.

I have known Maggie since we were kids in high school. She has always been so artistic and such a genuinely delightful human being. I couldn't imagine having both my engagement photos and soon my wedding to be photographed by anyone else! She brought to life my dark, moody, forest-like, Pride and Prejudice-esque vision for my engagement photos and I am so excited what she brings to life for my upcoming wedding! Truly one of a kind.
Any questions?
