And friends don’t give stuffy intros or dramatic “I fell in love with the art of photography because Blah Blah Blah…” fillers. I'll spare you!
Nope—real friends talk to you like a human and give you the scoop on what actually matters.
So here’s what you really need to know:
MICHIGAN PHOTOGRAPHER | genuine & AUTHENTIC
YOU FINALLY FOUND ME...
now let's be friends IRL!
You’re not just a client—you’re my people. I show up with my whole heart and treat your wedding or event like it’s my own. I’m in it with you from start to finish (and yes, I'll be on the dance floor shaking it like a polaroid picture when “Hey Ya!” comes on).
Real > perfect. I’ll guide you with natural prompts and laid-back direction so your photos feel candid, comfortable, and totally you—not stiff or forced.
I make it easy. No chaos, no confusion. Just calm energy, a solid plan, and a deep love for style guides and timelines. You’ll feel prepped, supported, and confident—because I’ve got you, babe.

JUST A COUPLE FUN FACTS ABOUT ME
I bought my first camera in 2016 and haven't stopped shooting and practicing since. A big shout out and thank you to my best friend, who was always willing to let her beautiful family be my muse...even when I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. Along the way, I have pushed myself to keep learning and growing as a photographer. On a mission to perfect my craft, I have taken a number of courses on shooting, editing, and even posing. I really enjoyed taking pictures with that first camera, but now I absolutely LOVE everything about photography. I feel like I have a super power, when I make time stand still.
it all started with a camera.

Frequently Asked Questions
My Blog is a great place to see recent sessions and search keywords for session types and locations.
WHY DO YOU ONLY OFFER ONE PORTRAIT SESSION?
I want to make everything as simple as possible for you. No tough choices or complicated pricing or surprise fees!!! Of course, we can also add on to any package if you don't see one that suits your needs.
WHEN DO I RECEIVE MY PHOTOS?
For most sessions it's typically around 2 weeks, with a sneak peek within 72 hours. All of your images are delivered online in a private gallery and you'll be downloading the full resolution images!
WHAT LOCATIONS DO YOU SHOOT AT?
I normally recommend beautiful locations in the Brighton/Howell area. Examples: Genoa Park and Brighton Light House. I also use my beautiful subdivision a lot which has lake views and beautiful walking trails. One of my new favorite places to shoot is Central Park in Milford, the stepping stone creek is magical! Some specific location requests, such as flower farms or with vintage trucks, may require an additional fee.
HOW FAR WILL YOU TRAVEL FOR A SESSION?
I will travel just about anywhere. I have been known to drive out to Lake Michigan if asked. Who would turn that down! But, sessions with a location outside of Livingston County will include a travel fee. Travel fees start at $40.
DO YOU REQUIRE A RETAINER?
Yes, to secure your session date, there is a 50% non-refundable retainer required.
