About Me


I'm a hopeless romantic, a nerd at heart, from Colorado, who loves golden retriever puppies, ballroom dance, and nature. I'm obsessed with Harry Potter (book purist here) and I will 100%, hands down, beat you in Harry Potter trivia! My friends and family mean everything to me, and I'm all about finding the beauty in life.


I’ve loved photography ever since I was little. I love capturing beautiful moments, whether they be solo, with your partner, or with your friends and family. There’s a story behind every relationship (even the relationship you have with yourself) and I’m here for it! I’m here to capture what can’t be put into words.


Let's be friends!

FAQ

Where are you based?

I am based in Utah County and Salt Lake County. I am also very open to traveling! Whether that's somewhere else in Utah, a completely different state, or a different country! Message me for more info (as some portrait pricing will change to reflect travel).

What kind of gear do you use?

I have a Canon R5 and Canon R6, and I mainly use my Canon RF 28-70mm lens. I also have a Canon RF 85mm, a Canon RF 100mm, and a Tamron 35mm.

What clothing should I wear for my photo session?

It definitely depends on what look/vibe you're going for! And when we schedule the shoot I will for sure be reaching out to figure out those specifics. In general though, I would stick with pastel or neutral colors, small patterns, and flowy fabrics. It's also always best to dress for the season. Honestly, whatever you feel most confident in!

What if I'm picky about my appearance?

I TOTALLY GET THAT. Please feel free to tell me what you want me to be aware of. I am happy to remove blemishes, acne, scars, etc. if you want me to! And I will pose you in the most flattering way possible.

For example, if you're self conscious about a certain wrinkle on your forehead, let me know and I will either find a way to make it less noticeable in the posing, or I will naturally edit it out in post processing. And please don't be shy about pointing any of those things out! We all want the best photos of ourselves. We all have a good side.

How long until I receive my images?

30-90 days depending on how busy the season is for me! For some engagements and bridals (and any other time sensitive photos), I can be more flexible. But if you're wanting a 1 week turn-around, I charge a $50-$150 rush fee ($50 for most photoshoots and $150 for weddings).

How will I receive my images?

You'll receive a high-res digital gallery (over text or email) where you can print, download, or more with your images. You can also print your images anywhere if you prefer!
