I talk a lot about how lucky I am to work with the coolest people, and I want to include in that how insanely fortunate I am to live in this gorgeous area! Getting to highlight the natural beauty of the world as we live in it is part of what makes my job so rewarding and fun, and I am eternally grateful to our planet for how it shares its gifts. This corner of the world is just one piece of the diverse and breathtaking scenery we get to see everyday, and I know I’ll never take it for granted💚Happy Earth Day!

Happy International Women’s Day! I have written and re-written my caption for this post three times, and as long as each iteraton has been, the underlying sentiment is always this: women have paved the way and made me who I am, and there is nothing in this life that I am prouder to be than a woman. To think that less than a century ago, I would not have had the ability to open my own business, live alone, own a car, or establish my own credit is heartbreaking, but that knowledge also drives me to embody the values instilled in me by the women in my life everyday. My humor, compassion, curiosity, and critical thought have been shaped so deeply by my mother, grandmothers, aunts, friends, coworkers, and mentors, and I see it as a great honor to continue their legacy into future generations; as a business owner, a daughter, and a friend. Happy International Women’s Day (month! year!) to all, and to all my women/femmes out there: a man in your life owes you a sweet treat today🙂‍↕️

All this rain has me day-dreaming of Bellingham summer☀️☀️
Also hi, it’s been a minute since I’ve posted on my grid! Things in my personal life have been chaotic since last spring, and posting on here went from something I procrastinated to now, where it feels strange to be posting my work while the world is in a continued state of chaos and uncertainty.

I’ve seen a lot of artists talk about the importance of still sharing art and celebrating the humans we as photographers capture despite the onsalught of imagery of state-sanctioned violence, genocide, and general global deterioration, and that mindset has reminded me why I fell in love with this medium in the first place: humans. The microexpressions a photo can freeze in time, the laugh suspended in a frame, all the unspoken words shared between two people holding eye contact in a moment that I was trusted with. “Client” feels too clinical a classification for the humans I get to work with. But I want my clients—past, present, and future—to know that I see and treasure the humanity that our sessions highlight, and I cannot begin to express my gratitude for what I have been able to do these past few years.

As we all find ways to come together and support our friends, families, neighbors, snd communities, I look forward to continuing to celebrate the humanity I believe in.

These three are straight out a grad catalog I swear🎓🍾

Tip for my clients, especially those of y’all who are nervous about getting your photo taken: bring your loved ones! Having your friends around keeps you relaxed, smiling big, and we can even grab some candid shots of you all having fun together!
