I'm a portrait photographer based in Los Angeles, CA. I have a passion for capturing those special and magical moments that are often overlooked, and consider myself incredibly lucky to be a part of my client's most special days! Photography has been a passion of mine my entire life. Starting out with Polaroid cameras and point & shoots, I've always had a camera In hand. Throughout high school, I shot for the newspaper and yearbook and knew I wanted to peruse my passion. Post high school, I moved to New York City where I went on to receive my BFA in photography from Parsons the New School for Design in 2015, where I learned both digital and darkroom techniques and explored printmaking and art theory.

Post-graduation, in my job hunting frenzy, I decided to take a leap and complete an internship with Disney in Orlando. Soon after this move, I ended up meeting my husband, Kevin. I went on to complete my MA in Arts and Culture Marketing in 2020, which In turn helped me push myself to launch my business full time.

Outside of photography, I can be found tending to my 70+ houseplants, hanging out with our Dachshund named Bean, working on my Yoga practice, shopping for treasures at thrift stores, and traveling to theme parks across the country. I love being able to capture milestone moments and create a safe and comfortable environment for my clients. Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns!
