I'm a photographer now based in North Carolina after moving from Illinois. Two and a half decades ago, my journey with photography began when I received my first Canon camera from my husband. Since then, I've transformed this passion into a profession, specializing in natural light photography. My primary focus lies in high school senior and family sessions, capturing genuine moments illuminated by the beauty of natural light. Alongside my supportive husband, four vibrant kids and adorable Great Dane, I've embraced this photography journey with open arms.
   My photography style is characterized by its light, effortless, and laid-back nature. Each session is designed to be enjoyable and comfortable, resulting in both smiles and stunning images that resonate for a lifetime. I love experimenting with unique locations and unconventional ideas to add an extra layer of creativity. While I'm rooted in Raleigh, I'm always up for travel sessions to the beach or mountains, fueled by my adventurous spirit. Booking a session with me means personalized attention. I invest time in getting to know you, aiming to encapsulate your essence in every photograph, showcasing the love and connections you cherish. Whether you're a senior stepping into a new chapter or a family preserving timeless memories, let's collaborate to create something truly exceptional.

Q. What’s in your bag?
A. Cameras: Canon R6 & Canon 5D Mark III, Canon Lenses: 50mm f/1.8, 70-200mm f/2.8L, 85mm f/1.8, 17-40mm f/4L. Hold Fast Money Maker Camera Strap

Q. Where will you take our photos?
A. All sessions take place outdoors. After our consult, I will plan the perfect location(s) for your session. I am always open to new location ideas or a location that is special to you. My favorite locations are the undiscovered side of the road jewels!

Q. What time will our session start?
A. Depending on which session you select, however, all sessions start a few hours prior to sunset.

Q. How long will my session last?
A. It depends on which session you select, however, all session descriptions can be found under the sessions tab.

Q. How long does it take before I receive my images?
A. 3 weeks

Q. How many images will I receive in my online gallery?
A. It depends on the session that you select.

Q. How do I pay for my session?
A. To reserve a session date a non-refundable deposit of $100 dollars is due. This balance is then applied to your remaining session balance which is due on the day of your session. I accept Venmo & Apple Pay for deposits.

Q. What if the weather is bad?
A. I keep a very close eye on the weather & typically will not make the decision about postponing/rescheduling your session until the late morning of the day of your scheduled appointment. I do this, simply because Mother Nature can be very picky & a rainy morning can turn into a very beautiful sunny afternoon.

Q. Can my mom/dad come along for my senior session?
A. Of course! I would say it’s about half and half, some like for their parents to come, others prefer not, it’s totally up to you, Mom or Dad or both are always welcome!

Q. Do you do beach or mountain sessions?
A. I love to travel for sessions & if you are interested, please inquire. I do charge an additional fee for locations outside of my typical shooting area.

Q. Do we have to purchase prints/products through you?
A. Nope! All of my sessions come with your own personal online gallery of high-resolution downloadable images. This means you can download and print as many images as you like. If printing overwhelms you, I am happy to do it for you.
