I have always had a passion for photography.  My love for creativity- combined with a true desire to save life's experiences- have brought me here today.  As a Registered Nurse for almost 25 years, I have worked with newborns only seconds old to seniors over 100 years old, and everywhere in between.  My lifelong desire to care for others and make a difference in their lives has driven me to make my "hobby" my "work."  I look forward to helping others to capture special moments to cherish for a life-time!

I got my first camera as a child, which gave me the opportunity to "freeze" that moment in time, leaving me with many memories along the way.  It was after getting married to my high school sweetheart and having 3 children of my own when I realized the true depth of my love for preserving life's unique moments and special blessings.  Seeing how quickly that newborn went from snuggling on my chest ~ to walking and talking ~ to sliding into home plate at his baseball game makes me thankful to have photographs that bring back a little piece of what life was like "then".  I am a self-taught photographer who specializes in natural light, on-location, lifestyle photography.  While I am happy to "stage" you in front of a faux background, I prefer to capture the everyday moments and special occasions in a more natural setting.  Whether it is outdoors, or in your chosen personal surroundings, my goal is portraying your story while you enjoy just being YOU!

I believe photos should "WOW" you, perhaps even make you shed a tear...but ultimately, they should make you smile and make you fall in love with that moment all over again!
