MEET THE ARTIST

Preserving lifes most cherished moments into timeless keepsakes.
Intentionally, ELEGANTLY, truthfully.

There I was - sitting in the living room of our first home in Twentynine Palm, California looking at my 7 month old daughter wondering just where the time had gone. When my daughter was just 6 weeks old I went back to school full time, on my way to becoming a licensed Cosmetologist. It was then I realized just how quickly life moves and I didn’t want to miss another second of it. After graduating and earning my license it didn’t take long for me to realize what I wanted to do, what I needed to do. I dug deep in our coat closet uncovering my first DSLR camera and used it to document all of Paisley’s moments there on out, both big and small. What started then as a hobby quickly grew into a passion.

Now a Mom of 3 I understand how quickly life moves, those little moments became just as important as the big. In 2018 I photographed my first wedding on a boat in the San Diego harbor. A fire ignited in my heart and I fell utterly in love with serving couples and families by preserving their most cherished moments... the rest is history!

spending time with my family

Traveling sets my soul on fire. If there is ever a time when I feel I need a reset to recharge, my go to is to travel. Whether it's a local hiking trail or visiting a new city, exploring the beautiful world around us is something I try to do as often as possible.

That strong passion for fashion I mentioned previously? Editorials are one way I fuel that passion. Creating editorials with strong fashion pieces and elegant imagery is one of my most favorite things to do. You can find more in my site Journal.
