why i chose photography
utah travel wedding +elopement photographer
Hey there! It’s me the girl behind the camera! I've had a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember, but it wasn't until a high school photography class that I really found my passion for taking photos. At 17 years old I decided to turn my passion into my very own business, with the help of an amazing mentor and supportive friends and family.
I remember sitting in my bedroom, scrolling through Instagram, feeling both inspired and intimidated by all of the talented photographers out there. But instead of letting that fear hold me back, I decided to take a leap of faith and start my own photography business. It was a slow start, but I worked hard to build my portfolio and establish myself in the industry. Now, several years later, I'm living out my dream as a full-time photographer. I specialize in travel photography and love nothing more than exploring new places and capturing the beauty of the world through my lens.
about ME
My Values
AUTHENTICITY
INTENTIONALITY
love is love
My intention behind every shoot is to document the real moments. It isn’t hard to take beautiful photos, but I choose to intentionally take a step beyond that to capture your day not only from my point of view but yours as well.
connection + Trust
Above all else, my goal is for you to walk out of our time together feeling amazing and like you just gained a lifelong friend. Whatever your vision looks like, know that you have a person in your corner vouching for you the whole time!
I firmly believe love is love. This is a safe space for EVERYONE and I will document all couples who feel connected to me + my work.
I show up to every session as myself, and my goal is to make you feel comfortable enough to be your real self around me, making the photos feel like you!
