YOU

Your memory is full of little moments. These moments aren't always marked by a special declaration or anniversary and so by nature, life makes it hard to remember... to remember. You feel these moments in very subtle ways— but they are none-the-less pivotal. Those are the kinds of moments, the memories, the feelings you never want to forget and I strive to capture in my photography. Working with you to capture your moments is how I'm putting my mark on the world and hopefully doing some good.

A famous Italian novelist once wrote,

"We do not remember days, we remember moments."

This is something you may have heard before, but little know the sentence that follows:

"The richness of life lies in memories we have forgotten."

Not to be melodramatic or anything, but isn't that a tragic thought? It is my mission to make sure you never forget!

You are full of love and empathy. Your relationships are your life's priorities. You are looking for a photographer who can capture those relationships in an emotional and meaningful way, but who can also make you look as radiant as you feel. You need someone that doesn't just work with model types, but knows how to make each unique individual's beauty shine through. And that person is me!

ME

Thanks for coming to view my work and learn a little more about me!

Here's my story:

I was born and raised in Arizona. I had absolutely no intention of leaving. Ever. I loved growing up in a place that sent you out for school recess, only to get burns from the playground slide on your thighs (true!). I loved the feeling I got after spending time in a cold air-conditioned building and then sitting in my 120 degree car to thaw out. I loved the late summer monsoons and dust storms that brought the smell of creosote bushes from the distance, the unforgiving desert, and the precious water that was so sparse, it almost seemed a miracle to see it flowing in a river. I loved seeing mountains in every direction and always knowing where I was just by looking at the horizon. I loved being an Arizonan and part of my own family
heritage that started generations back as ranchers, farmers, and lawmen in the Gila Valley.

But as much as I loved Arizona, I decided I loved the man I met there even more. So when it became a matter of marrying him and moving to Northeast Ohio versus staying in Arizona, well, you can see which one won. And I couldn’t be happier.

And as full and rich as my life feels, the pure happiness I get by spending time with my clients —you— the amazing people I am privileged to meet in this life who aren't afraid to love and love boldly— well, it's the reason for ALL OF THIS.

So, what are you waiting for? Reach out and let's meet and chat! By now you should realize it won't be boring. In fact, we might actually hit it off (I'm betting so). Send me a note through the contact form below or just text me directly.
