THE BACKSTORY

After losing both of my parents in my twenties, I learned what so many people already know to be true — when someone you love is gone, the first thing you reach for are the photographs. The memories. The moments frozen in time. In the midst of my grief, I picked up a camera again — not to chase a dream, but to begin healing.

What started as a personal way to cope quietly grew into something much more meaningful. Photography became a way to process, to reflect, and ultimately, to connect. Over time, that connection extended beyond my own story and into the lives of others.

Today, I have the incredible privilege of documenting people’s most important moments — the ones they’ll look back on for years to come. I don’t take that lightly. Every time I press the shutter, I’m reminded of why I started: because one photo can preserve a feeling, a chapter, a life. What began as a path to healing has become one of the biggest blessings in my life.
 greatest gifts in my life — helping others hold on to theirs.

BEING A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER FULFILLS MY LOVE OF WITNESSING AND ACKNOWLEDGING THE CONNECTIONS AND MEANING OF FAMILY, WHILE HONORING AND DOCUMENTING YOUR LEGACY.
