Boldly-Styled Bridal Portraits at The Cookery: Durham, NC

When I first moved to the Triangle, one of the things that really interested me about the area was the historical architecture. While I’m a nature girl at heart, photographically I’ve always preferred the lines, colors and abstract shapes that geometric backdrops provide - especially if their stories add another dimension to those within my images. When touring venues and getting to know other local wedding vendors, The Cookery stood out to me as the exact indoor + outdoor wedding venue with a variety of textures and lighting steeped in Durham history that I first envisioned! 

Destination Engagement Session: Manhattan

Combining my own love of travel with a desire to capture my couple’s stories more personally, getting to photograph a couple’s engagement session in their neighborhood - where they’re spending this season of their lives together - is such an intimate part of the wedding process because they’re showing me a glimpse into their real personal lives, and it makes the photos that much more meaningful. 

Personal Work & Travel Photography on Film: Scotland

Since somewhere around 2005, I made my dad a scrapbook of that cross country season every year for Christmas. Every single year, my mom would collect all of the newspaper clippings (because that was a thing) and I’d collect photos from teammates so that by the end of each season, I could put everything together to highlight that year’s triumphs and shenanigans. As you can see, I’ve always been all about curating memories into storytelling albums. After our family trip to Ireland, I decided that since we planned to make a family adventure an annual event, I could simply translate my original scrapbook idea into a photo book of our travels....

Celebrating Your Journey

I have always loved the idea that the journey is just as - if not more - important than the destination. Your photography session & final imagery will be a celebration both of where you are now and how you got here. I would love to tell your family's story from engagement to wedding to maternity to newborn to family portraits, filling your home with photo albums that show each season of your lives together. And capturing how your love grows. 

I want to capture your business's journey from your first start-up branding session to your celebratory corporate retreat, honoring all the hard work and enthusiasm you've poured into your craft.

Stress Free Photography

"I hate having my picture made."

"I'm so un-photogenic"

"I don't know how any of this works!"

I'm here to help.

Signature Albums

As an artist, I believe that we shouldn't have to be behind a computer to enjoy an image. All of my photo collections result in a artfully-bound book honoring the work as the beautifully story that it is.
