That's my husband and me on our recent trip to Michigan!

I am going to spare you any of the boring details about how I got into photography but all you need to know is that I just really freaking love taking photos and documenting your life so that you have something to look back on when your family has expanded, kids have grown, and you want to walk down memory lane!

​

​

Here are some random fun facts about me:

1. I married my hubby, Mike, in 2017! We love traveling, going to Iowa Hawkeye football games, and listening to our vinyl record collection at home. 

2. I am a stepmom of two older kiddos (Noah, 22 & Alyssa, 26) and have two pups I adore named Sgt. Pepper and Prudence. 

3. I became a stepgrandma (say what?!?) in 2019 to the most beautiful little girl named Millie. She is the perfect mix of girly and spooky and lets me do all the fun sessions for her! 

4. I love birdwatching and bird photography (I'm fully in my grandma era haha)

5. I was diagnosed with ADHD at 33 and it was like my whole life started to click and make sense.

6. I'm a self-proclaimed runny ranch and freshly shredded cheese snob and I just feel like iykyk.

Can you relate to any of my weird quirks?? No? That's totally okay haha

Shooting a session with me you can expect it to be relaxed, easygoing, and filled with fun and laughter. I like to get a good mix of posed and candid photos because I think both styles are equally important. I am introverted, but I will probably chat your ear off while we are together. One of my favorite feelings is meeting a new client for the first time and then leaving the session like I have a new friend. I'll probably care more about your kiddos than you expect any stranger to. I'll probably cry during your wedding vows. I'll be your biggest hype woman during your boudoir session. And I'll probably crack dad jokes during your session because I think I'm punny. 

​

If you think we might be a good fit, I'd love to hear from you and make some photography magic!
