Hello, hello! I'm a destination wedding photographer located in Phoenix, AZ. I'm obsessed with finding visually incredible locations to perfectly frame and encapsulate my clients. I love creating light and airy portraits that celebrate the happiness my couples bring one another, weaving individual moments into a rich, timeless story that can be shared for a lifetime.
When not working, I’m always trying to explore new places. I love traveling and finding amazing locations to use for photography. One of my favorite things to do is find hidden gems for my couples that makes their portraits unique & unforgettable.
My hope as a photographer is to tell your story, preserving every smile, dance and fleeting glance for generations to come.

Corgis with Tails
I’m obsessed with them. We have the cutest cardigan corgi named Charlie. He's to blame for my obsession.
Destination Weddings
One of my favorite types of weddings to capture. It's so special & romantic traveling somewhere magnificent to celebrate your marriage.
Nutella
Putting it on toast and pairing it with strawberries? So freakin' delicious.
The Beach
I may turn into a lobster from all the sunburn after every visit, but the ocean is my home-away-from-home.
Wine
The bottle I choose is 100% dependent on how visually pleasing the label is.
Coffee
You can always find me with an iced latte with an extra shot of espresso before a wedding day.
Broadway Musicals
I have a secret ambition to star in Hamilton... It's a work in progress.
Fresh Florals
Whether it's on a wedding day or in my home, nothing beats a beautiful bouquet.
Growing up, one of my favorite things to do was glance through the album that contained portraits from my grandma & grandpa's wedding day. As a child, I loved seeing how the moments that had been captured were able to display every detail from that day. Whether it was seeing how my grandparents looked as they prepared for the ceremony, the stunning gown my grandma wore or the happiness they shared when they were officially husband and wife -- Their portraits connected us and allowed me to relive that special day with them 60 years later.
This is why photography is so important. The documented memories captured on your wedding day will tell your story for generations to come. I want to make sure the legacy you're building together is beautifully captured so that every time your portraits are shared with someone, they're able to fully relive your special day with you -- just like I could with my grandma & grandpa.
