Before I was a photographer, I was a nurse. While I was in nursing school I worked in the NICU, which means I've been in the room for some of the most tender, terrifying, and sacred moments of people's lives. That experience never really leaves you. It shaped the way I show up — calm, present, attuned to what's actually happening in the room.

I'm a mom of three, and I've been through the seasons you're probably in right now — the anticipation of a new baby, the chaos of toddlers, the blink-and-you-miss-it stretch of early childhood. I know what it feels like to want to document it well and not quite know where to start.

The art of being present is what we're trying to capture. Not a posed version of your life. The real one, just a little more beautifully lit.

If that sounds like what you've been looking for, I'd love to work with you.
