My love for photography truly began in a high school art classroom, under the gentle and brilliant guidance of my favorite teach, Virginia Hovendon. With kindness and an innate understanding of when to encourage me and when to push me out of my comfort zone, she shaped not just my technique, but the very way my eye captures composition and emotion.

Today, I bring that exact same philosophy into every single session with my clients. I strive to recreate the atmosphere Hovendon built for me - one rooted in warm encouragement, thoughtful posing guidance, and just the right amount of gentle coaching to bring out your most authentic smiles and laughter. When you step in front of my camera, you can expect an experience that beautifully balances guided poses with genuine, unscripted emotions, ensuring your memories feel with artfully composed and completely true to who you are.
