ABOUT ME

WELCOME, FRIEND

It’s great to meet you.

I’m a wife to Geoff and mom to Charlotte, Nathaniel, and 3 furry children (Little Miss, Penny, and Freddie). I am told I live up to my name, so we might get lost in conversation at some point down the road ?. I love to laugh and am always looking for the humor in everything (it’s one of the reasons why I fell in love with my husband, he makes me laugh).

Now, I’m sure this is the part where I am supposed to tell you all about my photography journey, how much I love taking photos, and how I am going to freeze time for you. While I do love taking photos and I would love to preserve your precious memories through photography, that is not why I do what I do.

Truth be told: I am a recovering perfectionist. I know it may seem ironic given what my mission is, but honestly, embracing imperfections and our everyday struggles is HARD. 

It’s hard not to compare ourselves to others without feeling like we are falling short. For a long time, I felt like I was the only person struggling through this thing called life; everyone else seemed to have it all figured out except me.

Documentary photography was the therapy I needed. It showed me my struggles weren’t my own—others were feeling the same way I was; we just didn’t talk about it. It allowed me to see the beauty in what I once thought were flaws. I learned to fall in love with ALL of life, because all moments have value: the good and the bad, the easy and the hard, the joyous and the mundane—and I am so much happier for it.

Let me show you the masterpiece of your everyday life, help you celebrate your true essence, and we can work on combating perfectionism together. You and your family are enough as you are, no prerequisites required.

I BELIEVE WE ARE

enough as we are

My blog focuses on helping others to be authentically themselves and learning to believe we are enough as we are right now in this moment. After all, we can’t give our children what we don’t have. It also features client session recaps as well as fun, free information to help you navigate this parenting journey. I’m happy for you to be a part of my village.
