She existed before motherhood.

Before the titles.
Before the sleepless nights.
Before she became everything to everyone else…

She was a woman with dreams, softness, fire, and identity.

And she still is. 🖤

This weekend, I had the honor of photographing something deeper than a “mommy + me” session.

This was about her.

The woman she was.
The woman she became.
And the parts of her that never left.

Through quiet moments, honest reflections, and raw connection—these sessions told stories that don’t get said out loud enough.

Because motherhood doesn’t erase you…
it transforms you.

✨ This is your reminder:
You are still in there.

—

If you’ve ever wondered who you were before becoming “mom”…
or who you’re becoming now…

This series is for you.

Comment “MOTHERHOOD” or DM me to be part of the next round.

Let’s tell your story. 🖤

MODEL CALL — “Before She Was Mom”

She existed before motherhood.
She had dreams. Fire. Identity.

And she still does.

I am launching a new editorial motherhood portrait series focused on honoring the woman before she became “mom.”

This is not a traditional mommy & me session.
This is reflective. Emotional. Empowering.

I am selecting 3–5 mothers for a complimentary model call.

You must:
• Be comfortable answering reflection questions
• Be open to being photographed in a modern editorial style
• Allow images to be used for marketing

You will receive:
• A full session experience
• 5 edited images
• Special gallery upgrade pricing

To apply:
Comment “MOTHERHOOD” or DM me your story.

Let’s honor the woman you still are. 🖤
This will include both single photos of you, and the transition of you to a mother. Need to be okay with kids being captured too.
Looking to pick a date in March to shoot to open up for other mommas further in the spring.

I knew dancing on the beach was one and a million. But, I also talked about the next time I would able to dance like this moment again. This news breaks my heart but also encourages me to cherish nature and beauty while we have it. 🤍🌊✨

VALENTINE’S DAY MINIS ANNOUNCEMENT + MOOD BOARD 💋🤍
Love is in the details.
The quiet ones. The meaningful ones.

This Valentine’s Day, I’m capturing love like a love letter—
made of small pieces of history that explain your story.

A person.
A place.
A thing.

The café where it began.
The sweater you always steal.
The handwritten notes, the heirloom, the memory you hold close.

Love isn’t the same for everyone—and it shouldn’t be captured that way.
Soft, messy, passionate, healing, new.

Bring your story.
Bring something meaningful.
Let me capture your love exactly as it is.

✨ Valentine’s Day Mini Sessions ✨
Limited spots. Intentionally crafted.
Because your love deserves to be remembered exactly as it is.

SIGN UPS COMING SOON. 💋

Some shoots scare me.
Not because of the people — but because of the light or other challenges that come up.

Harsh sun. Flat skies. Indoor shadows I can’t fully control.
These are the moments that make me question myself the most.

But lately, I’ve realized this:
If I only shoot what I’m already good at, I’ll never become the photographer I know I can be.

So I’m saying yes to sessions that stretch me.
Yes to imperfect lighting.
Yes to learning in real time.
Yes to being uncomfortable instead of stagnant.

Every image you don’t see behind the scenes?
That’s growth happening quietly.

Alittle Friday Elopement Education for your day! ✨

Cost & Budget: Where Does Your Money Go?

Traditional Wedding: The average cost in the US is over $30,000! Most of this budget is spent on venues, catering, and accommodating a large guest list.

Modern Elopement (Domestic): Typically costs range from $5,000 - $15,000. The smaller guest list (often 20 people or fewer) means you save thousands on catering, seating, and venue fees.

International Elopement: You get to reallocate your wedding fund! Instead of paying for 100 dinners, you can invest in a dream trip—flights, a luxury stay, an incredible photographer, and a private chef experience in an exotic location. Your budget goes to experiences, not logistics.

Planning & Stress: Which is Easier?

Traditional Wedding: Requires months (or years!) of complex planning—seating charts, vendor coordination, family politics, and managing expectations. It can be incredibly stressful.

International Elopement: Offers unparalleled flexibility and reduced stress. You only need to coordinate for two (or a small handful) of people! The focus shifts from pleasing guests to creating a perfect, meaningful day for just the two of you.

Experience & Focus: What's the Real Celebration?

Traditional Wedding: A beautiful public declaration, but the day is often spent hosting, running a timeline, and making sure all the guests are entertained.

International Elopement: The ultimate focus is intimacy and authenticity. You get to exchange deeply personal vows at a bucket-list location—whether it's a cliffside in Ireland, a secluded beach in Thailand, or a vibrant European city. It’s an adventure that combines your wedding and honeymoon into one unforgettable experience.

Wow. Wow. Wow.
Today my heart is so full.
Seeing my name listed as a 2026 Photographer of the Year nominee feels surreal… like a quiet dream I’ve held close finally stepping into the light.

I built this business from passion, late nights, trial and error, tears, joy, and a whole lot of love. And somehow, every couple, every family, every vendor I’ve crossed paths with has become part of my story — part of the reason this nomination even exists.

If you’ve trusted me with your moments, your memories, your love… thank you.
If you’ve referred me, encouraged me, or believed in me on the days I doubted myself… thank you.

This doesn’t just feel like a nomination.
It feels like a reminder that heart-led work matters.
And I’m so honored. 🤍✨
