I’m drawn to the little things: the way two people lean into each other without noticing, the quiet hands, the crooked smiles, the in-between.

Photography came into my life slowly — but when it did, it made sense. After my own wedding, something clicked. I didn’t want to pose people or create picture-perfect moments. I wanted to catch them — as they are. Natural. Honest. Full of movement and soul.

I spent years flying around the world as a flight attendant. That taught me how to read energy, find stories in silence, and appreciate how fleeting everything is. Now I bring that awareness to the way I shoot: present, intuitive, always looking for that one detail that says everything without needing words.

I’m also a mom — which means I’ve mastered the art of doing five things at once, laughing in chaos, and spotting beauty in the ordinary.

SHE HER is about love — not the filtered kind, but the genuine, human, beautifully imperfect kind. Whether you’re running barefoot through a vineyard or sharing a quiet moment under the sun, I’ll be there capturing it with calm, heart, and a bit of humor.

I don’t take myself too seriously

— but I take your memories seriously. And I’ll document them the way they deserve: real, soulful, and full of life.
