What I do...
Through photographs and paintings, I have the ability to record a moment in time. That single moment, along with all its beauty and emotion, will be restored to your memory with every glance. With more than seventeen years of experience in the business of photography, I will approach your session with professionalism and love. I have undergraduate degrees in Fine Arts and Marketing, a Master of Photography, Master Artist, Craftsman degree, and am a Certified Professional Photographer through Professional Photographers of America. I have Master Certifications (five, actually!) through NAPCP as well. I have been published in publications such as Inspired Magazine, Still Standing Magazine, Professional Photographer Magazine, The Art of Pregnancy and Newborn Magazine, and more. I am the 2024 First Place Grand Imaging Award winner in the Children and Teens category. I am a member of Team USA and finalist in the Illustrative Portrait category for the World Photographic Cup 2024 as well. I have had the honor of several awards such as second and third place in the National Association of Professional Child Photographers annual competition and LOAN collection images in the International Photographic Competition of PPA, as well as 7th in the international Portrait Masters Competition. I was absolutely THRILLED to be nominated twice for the 2022 Grand Imaging Awards (Senior and Master Artist categories). I am a photography educator, speaking all over the country on a variety of topics. I am an exhibiting artist, showing in galleries nationally and worldwide. I am obsessed with creating beautiful imagery for your family.
