I began capturing images about 14 years ago at the urging of my husband, Jared. He saw my need for a creative and mental health outlet. Photography has allowed me to really observe the beauty in the world, and the people around me. Photography allows me to remember the beauty in my life.
Whenever I pick up my camera, I strive to create beautiful and emotional images that tell a story and showcase the beauty of both the people in the images and the world around them.
Photography is truly a labor of love. In my spare time, I also write about random observations about life, love, my family, and photography. I have also been known to make jewelry and pick up a crochet hook on occasion. Laundry is the bane of my existence and there is always a load in both the washer and the dryer.
As a creative, I find beauty in the details.
I was raised in Carrollton, Georgia and after marrying my husband, Jared, and after living with him for a while in Iowa, we moved back to Carrollton. since then we’ve had three boys and we continue the adventure of raising them. Our oldest is about to go off to college and this mama’s heart is not ready.
My love for photography has brought me the privilege of meeting so many people around Georgia and Alabama. But regardless of where I travel, the metro Atlanta area will always be my home.

I love telling stories. I have kept a journal since I was eight years old, and photography has become a natural extension of my story-telling journey. I tell some of those stories on this blog.
