The Person

Well first of all, I try not to take myself too seriously, so it's hard for me to think about what I want to say about myself!  I grew up in Florida with a very large family.  My entire family has art running through their veins.  My grandfather was a professional photographer, Mom and Dad both have artistic talents, and all of my siblings have a knack for being creative one way or another.  so here I am, married with children and wondering how in the world I'm going to channel my passion for creativity into something beautiful, productive, fulfilling, and find joy all at the same time?  So, photography became the answer and a much needed outlet.

I love people, I love love, and I love adorable little baby fat rolls!  I have to be creating beautiful things at all times.  Though being a full time mother and homemaker takes up most of my time, I just can't keep myself from dreaming about being an amazing wedding photographer.

The Photographer

Over the past five years in the wedding industry, I feel like I have become a regular wedding junkie!  By recognizing the latest styles and trends, I am prepared to capture everything that is unique and fabulous at your wedding and wrap it all up into an amazing timeless package.  And that amazing package is the work of art you will walk away with when the day is all said and done.  How well do you want to remember it? 

Recently I have also reached one of my ongoing goals of being published in a national wedding magazine.  They are but two small pictures, but I am so blessed none the less (baby steps!).  You may recognize some images from Kyle and Christina's Wedding at Gorge Crest Farms in Town & Country Weddings, Fall 2010 issue.  I have also been featured in a few wedding inspiration blogs such as Style Me Pretty, Snippet & Ink, Style Unveiled, and Marry You Me!

Weekend Getaway!

Well, I spent this last weekend with my chicks! ALL WEEKEND LONG was spent talking, and talking, and more talking! I kept pausing to think, oh my gosh, we all just stayed up until 3-4am talking and here we go on…talking! Well, I guess that’s just what happens when you get a bunch of girls together who all have at least one thing in common: photography. Anywho, we had a blast, and I enjoyed getting to know these fellow photographers.
We did manage to get down to the beach once or twice a day to walk and take some headshots of eachother! thank you to all of you for playing with my head-strappy thing, I love it, but I just realized how funny it will be for everybody to be wearing the same thingy in all of these pics. Anywho, you all rocked it in your own beautiful way!

I wished I had more to show, there were probably double the amount of people in all, but pictures were being taken randomly, and I didn’t get a chance to attack everybody. Thanks girls for the fun weekend, and thank you Sara for the Beach house!
