I was born on a dirt road in Texas but raised in New York. The Hudson Valley has been my home for over 30 years. I have a passion for riding my motorcycle Betty, travel, hiking, my 2 huskies, my rescue cats, and my 100+ thriving houseplants.

I have a bachelors degree in Fine Art Photography and a minor in Art History. My approach to photography is deeply rooted in my love an appreciation for art and the human form. As someone who loves love, I know how special your day is.
My goal is to capture that magic.

I hold a special place in my heart for intimate weddings, destination weddings, elopements, and anything in nature. I believe in the happy coexistence between posed and candid photography, and live for them both. I thrive off of positive energy and always promise to bring my own.

I have shot over 300 weddings from coast to coast, north and south, and in Europe.

For each couple I work with, I create a detailed and extensive timeline, posed list, and photo itinerary to ensure a smooth, relaxing, organized, and absolutely magical day.

I’ve got a case of wanderlust and adore nature. Let’s explore.
