ABOUT THE artist

I traded scrubs for a camera & built a done-for-you portrait experience for women who want it handled, want it beautiful, & want finished artwork that lasts.

FELLOW MAMA of TWO GIRLS & A GOLDEN-DOODLE. WIFE.
MEMORY MAKER.

In 2013, I thought I had finally found my calling. I was a new grad, about to move down to Florida for residency. I was fulfilling what I thought were my life goals. Don't get me wrong, I'm still so proud of the work I put in and love the people I met along the way (including my husband). But eventually, I learned that I needed to focus on what mattered most and that was my family, my time, and our legacy.

As a specialty pharmacist, I learned that the smallest details matter, and that people remember how you made them feel. I loved the relationships I developed with my patients.  That mindset still guides everything I do. I’m calm, thorough, and quietly particular, especially when it comes to quality, because this work deserves more than “good enough.”

The weekend my grandmother passed away in 2015, and after spending time with my cousins creating a giant memory board for the services, I realized we didn’t have enough truly print-worthy photographs of her.  On an impulse, I upgraded my camera, invested in education, and committed to creating the kind of portraits families do not realize they need until it’s too late.

Today, I serve fellow women who value the sentimental moments and want the process handled with care. So many of us are overwhelmed with motherhood, and don't have time for documenting the big milestone. I’ll guide you through a refined, full-service experience, from planning and styling support to designing finished artwork for your home. My overall goal is to create timeless portraits with heart, and heirloom quality pieces you will see every day and keep for generations.
