Everyone has their own story,

Photography began for me in a small Pacific Northwest town, where—as an only child with a big imagination—I longed for a creative outlet. I couldn’t draw more than lopsided hearts, but when I picked up a camera, everything clicked. My friends and I would spend hours doing makeshift photoshoots, and before long, I became “that” friend—the one always documenting, always capturing.

After high school, I moved from Washington to the Phoenix metro for college and was swept into a world of sunshine, ambition, and movement. While trees and rain will always ground me, there’s something about the energy of a city that makes me feel alive. It was shortly after this when I lost my grandfather and both my childhood dogs. Suddenly, the photos I had taken—some posed, most not—meant everything. That’s when I realized: memories don’t wait. But photography has the power to freeze them in time.

Years later, while planning my own wedding, I reconnected with that truth and remembered what it felt like to capture something real—something fleeting. What started as a creative escape has since become something so much more: a way to preserve love, emotion, and all the in-between moments that make your story beautifully, unmistakably yours.
