Along came photography…
The year of 2020 was a tough one. I needed something a little more creative in my life. I was looking for inspiration and a way to give back in all the chaos. And along came photography.
What I love most about photography is the connections. I love getting to meet new people and seeing the difference they are making in the world and being able to capture that for them.
I work full-time in nuclear medicine at St. Luke's. It’s still strange to me when people introduce me as a photographer. The truth is my real job, that I went to school for way too long, is nuclear medicine. I absolutely love it and I believe it fuels my compassion for helping others.
In photography and at the hospital I think my superpower is making people feel super comfortable.
Fast forward and I felt like I was still missing my creative passion. So along came photography. And it turns out it also fuels my passion for helping others. I love helping businesses grow their businesses. It’s the coolest job, I literally help other badass business owners show their voice on social media and help them make more money. So I guess I’m a photographer too.
Everything I do, I do it for my family, myself and others.
I have the most amazing children. More than anything I want them to see how hard work, dedication, kindness and doing things for others pays off.

and wife. and mom.
Family is the most important thing to me, which is why I love capturing family portraits so much!
I’m a wife and have two amazing kiddos (16 and 6). My son, Gavin (16) plays a lot of baseball and my daughter, Hailey (6) has the biggest personality and loves dance and gymnastics.
All my spare time (when I’m not working or behind my camera) is spent watching them play baseball and dance. We spend all of our travels at baseball tournaments and competitions.

ALL ABOUT THAT NATURAL GLOW
When Lizzo said, “fresh photos with the bomb lighting”, I’m almost positive she was talking about natural light…which just so happens to be my specialty!
