With a decade of experience as a high school teacher, I discovered the art of storytelling and the beauty of words, creating a steady foundation for my photography journey. While teaching, I nurtured my passion for capturing love stories, balancing the joy of working with teenagers and toddlers alongside my own family.
It took a brave high school student to inspire me to pursue my dreams fully. She asked, "You push us to chase our dreams and follow our talents; why are you still in this room?" That moment ignited a shift, propelling me to trade textbooks for a camera.
Now, I specialize in documentary-inspired wedding photography, artfully capturing genuine moments that tell each couple's unique love story. My experience as a teacher, photographer, and business owner has equipped me with the flexibility to adapt and the intuition to seize authentic connections, often infused with a sprinkle of humor.
Based in Indiana, I am a proud wife to Ben and a dedicated mom to Amelia and Harrison. Together, we love boating, cultivating our garden, and managing our family businesses. Ben runs his own insurance agency and supports my creative venture, Parlor Studios, a rentable studio space that fosters artistic collaboration.
Let’s create beautiful memories together, capturing the moments that matter most on your special day.
