I live for taking the picture because OH MY GOSH I NEED TO REMEMBER THIS MOMENT. I believe in letting them be young and wild and free. I think family photos should be FUN and RELAXED and GENUINE. No, I will not photoshop your skin into flawless perfection because the wrinkles tell your story. I started photographing babies + families in 2010, because I had a decent camera and I once took an intro
to photography class in college. And naturally, that makes a photographer (do jokes translate on About Me pages? I had friends who trusted me with their special family moments, and with each session I grew in my craft. The more I practiced the more I loved it. There is an art and a science to photography, and I love the things I learn every time I pick up a camera. A few years into my venture, I was able to quit my day job and build a successful wedding photography business, based out of Richmond, Virginia. After some wonderful time on the east coast and a stretch of time in west Texas, I’m now back to where it all started with an intro to photography class – in Arkansas! I am excited to be introducing this business to the Natural State! A few extra things you about me: I am married to Jake and we have 2 girls and a Goldendoodle named Obu. I’m a major foodie, a cheap wine connoisseur, and always looking for a new adventure. Dark chocolate is the way to my heart, along with folky singer-songwriter Spotify stations. Once at a wedding I tripped backward over my camera bag and landed on my butt. You definitely want to know that. I am excited to learn about you!
