Born in Colorado, raised in Kentucky USA, my heart is in the Red River Gorge, KY. I am inspired by connection, passion and peace. Lover of all things nature, art, light, and animals. I am one of those people who enjoy mornings, but don't get me twisted, I'm a sleepy girl. I believe that life is ripe with beauty, art and moments to cherish. I love quiet moments where my only objective is to observe, be present, and tune into my surroundings. I am a wife, critter mother, sister, daughter, friend, member of the queer community, an activist, and community helper. I am an open minded listener, a science nerd, and I adore learning.  I like to think that we all have more in common than we don't, so let's hang!

What draws me to photography? It's the people I get the honor of meeting and the fleeting moments with them that I get to capture. It's about getting to know their stories and helping them better express their narrative; put images to the script. Photography has been a healing modaility for myself and I treat all my sessions as a time to celebrate all that you are in hopes of aiding others in their healing journey. I'm a tender hearted love-lover. I see the beauty in all journies of life, and feel humbled and grateful to walk part of your path with you; whether it be for one celebration or documenting your family for decades. To get to know you, and what drives you every day is a privledge.  To create art with you, and recieve trust in the partnership that is created between an artist and their subject, is truly a gift. My heart's mission with photography is to deliver a gallery that transports you back in time, a gallery made with love and respect, a set of images that make you feel.

Bring artisinal quality prints to your life and those you love. Prints make excellent gifts for all occasions and wall hangings really do transfrom a house into a home.

WEDDINGS

I'll be there to capture all the big, joyful moments and the sweet, quiet ones that punctuate the day. It would be an honor to be a part of the team that it takes to make your big day that much more special and fun!

Wedding day coverage is $600 an hour, and rather than having a series of "packages" to choose from, I strategize directly with my clients on how much coverage would be best for their individual needs. Every couple is unique and prioritizes different goals, and it is my hope to structure offerings that are dynamic and supportive to everyone who wants to work with me! I guaruntee between 40 to 80 images an hour which you will recieve in multiple edits (color and black and white), on a online gallery. Galleries are delivered within 12-20.

Second photographers start at $100 (and goes up to $200 depending on the photographer) an hour, as I want to support other artists as comprehensively as possible. 

Travel fees do apply to any locations more than a 1 hour (one-way) drive from Clay City, Kentucky 40312. For out of state celebrations I require a daily travel stipend for myself and/or a second photographer if one is hired, there will be a price difference for locations in which I can drive to within a day or need to take a flight in order to be there, please inquire for more details.

Engagement Sessions

Engagement sessions begin at $350 for 2 hours of fun, hanging out and loving on your sweetheart while I snap away. Like my portrait sessions, engagement sessions are broken down into 2 payments, your session fee and you image purchases. See my Family + Portraits page to learn more. In your engagement session what you can expect to do is snuggle, laugh, snuggle some more, run around somewhere beautiful with me in tow, and stare into the eyes of the human you love most in this world, all while I crack bad jokes. Fun will be had, and I might bring cookies.
