When I enrolled in a basic black and white photo class in college, I was hooked. I loved the creative freedom of capturing beautiful images with a camera. While finishing my degree in architecture, I took every photography class North Carolina State offered. Moving toward a career with a camera, I attended graduate school at Ohio University to study photojournalism. While I worked as a newspaper photographer for several years, I dreamt of running my own business. I continued to work as a photographer for over a decade, but I was always “working for the man.” It wasn’t until my husband and I adopted our son Sebastian that I made a break from corporate life to pursue my freelance photography full time. Since the inception of my business, I’ve documented many important steps in a family’s life… weddings, pregnancies, first birthdays, mitzvahs, graduations, marriage proposals and reunions. Helping my clients feel beautiful and strong through photography is an experience I hope to continue through the rest of my career.
