I don't know you yet but I love you.

I find it hard to sum up who I am in a few paragraphs, mostly because you can't see my wild hand gestures and hear my Betty Rubble laugh echoing throughout a mountain top.

I really want to be real for you here, so without all the bullshit let me say that I'm here to shake things up. The way you look at your photo experience, the way you feel after, how you see yourself--I have literally arrived and landed on plant Earth for all of this. I believe in the radical human connection and I approach absolutely everything heart first at warp speed and I simply don't know how to be still. I'm almost positive my inner spirit lives in a dancehall somewhere.

So who am I?
I am joyful and playful to a fault.

Vulnerable AF. I know it's not easy to get in front of a camera, especially not in a way that leaves you feeling a little raw and exposed. I'm right there with you.

I am fearless and fucking deeply rooted in celebrating love + intimacy inclusively and daily.

I am eccentric: Snort laughs + overalls + tiny donuts + real ass talk all the time. More pockets = more room for love and tiny treats.

What I specialize in: Couples, weddings, elopements + boudoir. All sizes. All ages.

I am out there connecting on a real level with people, not just on the surface. I believe in building a solid foundation from the start. Photos are not just images, but an entire experience and with that I believe in cultivating real relationships built on trust and love. Real real real real, I will say it again and again, ain't got no time for anything but real.

I think often about bold acts, and what it means to truly be fearless in my job. I think what's important for me to remember is that fearlessness isn't really the absence of fear, but taking actions despite it. Fear is biological but also built from past experiences, and lately instead of thinking what scares me I'm thinking of why it scares me and addressing that. The more I face it head on, the less it is a barrier. Letting go of fear for me is like letting a dam that's been bursting open up and pour out, and the relief is overwhelming. Every time we are vulnerable we are releasing some of that fear. We are all constantly healing, so know how intensely loved you are by me. I can't wait to meet you.
