What makes me different...


My style is a mix of candid, editorial, and artsy, with a moody edge that adds depth and emotion to every frame. I believe the best photos happen when people forget I’m there—when you’re simply being yourselves, caught in the moment.  


Many people say they want candid photos, but the moment a camera appears, they freeze, wait for precise instructions, and unintentionally shut down the very energy they’re hoping to capture.


Candid photos require interaction, movement, and engagement. The more you participate, the more your photos reflect genuine emotion and connection. This doesn’t mean you need to perform for the camera or come up with ideas on your own. It simply means being willing to interact with your partner in a real and present way. Candid images are created through collaboration, trust, and willingness to engage with the process.


During our portraits, I guide you with prompts and direction that help you settle into the moment and soften any awkwardness you may feel. These prompts give you a starting point, and once you’re comfortable, your natural expressions take over.


If you love natural and candid photos… but also want a few where we’re your looking at the camera and want to capture a few natural poses I can incorporate a few into our session.


Posed doesn’t have to mean stiff or formal in my world. My approach to posing is relaxed and natural. I’ll gently guide you into flattering positions that feel like you…without the forced smiles.

But for most of your shoot, I’ll encourage you not to look at me or my camera. Instead, look at your children and your partner…that’s where the magic is.


I’m there to give direction when you need it, I always strive for that real connection.  I will help ease you into a flow that allows for those beautifully imperfect, real-life moments and a few more guided shots.
