I’ve always believed that photography is more than just pictures—it’s about preserving the emotions, details, and fleeting moments that make life so beautiful. My passion for both storytelling and Jesus has shaped the way I see the world: full of love, light, and meaning worth capturing.

 

I was raised in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and they’ve been my playground and my inspiration for as long as I can remember. There’s something about the way the light filters through the trees or sets over the ridges that always reminds me why I fell in love with photography in the first place. While the mountains will always be home, I’m also endlessly inspired by traveling—whether that’s across the country or around the globe—to capture love stories in new, exciting places.

 

Over the past 8 years, I’ve photographed everything from intimate elopements tucked away in the woods to big, joy-filled celebrations with hundreds of guests. No matter the size or style, what matters most to me is telling your story in a way that feels authentic, timeless, and true to who you are.

 

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me curled up with a good book or movie, heading to a concert, or sweating it out at the gym. I’m a big believer in finding joy in both the little everyday moments and the once-in-a-lifetime ones—and I bring that same perspective into my photography.

 

At the end of the day, I want my clients to feel cared for, comfortable, and celebrated. My hope is that when you look back at your photos, you’ll not only see how everything looked, but also feel how deeply loved and joyful that moment truly was.
