When I was five, I would take my mom’s Canon point-and-shoot camera, dress up my stuffed animals in my parents' robes, and carefully pose them for photos—after making sure my room was spotless, of course. I’ve always been an observer, captivated by people, light, and the way a story unfolds in a single frame. That curiosity led me to a career in photography, where I’ve spent over 20 years redefining what photography means to me. It has allowed me to truly capture the beauty, strength, and essence of my clients.

After college in 2005, I moved to NYC, working for a fashion photographer and later as a professional retoucher for top brands. Being behind the scenes felt safe, but I missed the connection that comes with photographing people. In 2012, after losing my job, I finally took the leap into professional photography. It started with a few boudoir sessions for friends, but my own self-doubt held me back—until one day, it clicked.

I truly understood the power of being seen when I became a mother. As a single mom, I realized that if I didn’t step in front of the camera, my children would have no record of me in their lives. That moment changed everything. Recently I had my hair and makeup done by my team member, Nikki, and took a self-portrait. When my six-year-old saw the image, she said, “Mama, you look so pretty.” And for the first time in a long time, I truly felt it. That’s when I knew—every woman deserves to see herself through a lens of love.

Regardless of how you think you’re showing up, the people who love you see your strength, your beauty, and your impact. I’m here to reflect that back to you. Let me show you the version of yourself that is bold, radiant, and completely captivating.
