California native, mountain raised, world traveled. I grew up in the snow-capped peaks of Lake Tahoe, spent my formative years in Costa Rica's rainforests, and found my calling in Santa Barbara, where I earned my BFA from Brooks Institute of Photography in 2013.

Photography has been my passion since childhood, and pursuing this art as a career was the most natural path forward. I love showing people the beauty I see through photos, and I feel honored to capture memories and freeze moments in time for others to cherish and revisit throughout their lifetimes.

For over twelve years, I've specialized in weddings, elopements, engagements, proposals, and family sessions. My approach is rooted in natural light and genuine moments. Each person's story is unique, and I believe your photos should reflect that authenticity; no forced poses, just real emotions and honest interactions.

I bring a relaxed presence to your day, allowing moments to unfold naturally while ensuring every meaningful detail is preserved. Through simple direction and prompts, you'll never feel stiffly posed or unsure what to do with your hands. My goal is to make your experience smooth, fun, and stress-free by bringing attention to detail and a wealth of industry experience to every session.

Whether we're catching golden light in the Santa Barbara hills or chasing adventure at a remote destination, these aren't just photos, they're portals to moments that matter.

When you revisit them years from now, you'll not just see them but feel them.
