WHAT DRIVES ME

Family photos have always been important to me: vacations, family portraits, time with my grandparents. Photographs play an important role in everyone's life – they connect us to our past, they remind us of people, places, feelings, and stories. Photographs are the legacy you leave for generations to come. I love connecting with my clients in a very special way that allows me to bring out the best in each of them whether it's a family, a senior, kids, business portrait or furry friend. I have studied with some of the best photographers in the world to better my skills in order to deliver an exceptional product and the best service to my clients.

 I LOVE

I have a great husband that lets me follow my passions and accepts my quirks.  Our daughter, her husband, and a vivacious little three-year-old boy live just three doors down. Being a grandparent is the best! We have a very spoiled rotten dog named Zoe.  I love being outside doing most anything. I am a retired Registered Nurse. I love herbal teas, vanilla ice cream, and My Brothers Salsa and Chips.
