I believe that the first purpose of a work of art is to convey truth and the second is to reveal beauty. I know that might sound a little corny, but there you have it. I’m not interested in a thousand posed pictures, (but maybe ten.) I don’t want you to look back on your event and think, “Oh, I remember when we posed for that and when the photographer made us stand there and then she couldn’t get the flash right so we had to wait for the….”

That is not my idea of a successful photoshoot.

My goal is to stay out of the way as much as possible on the day of your event but be there to gently guide you into the best you. (That sounds confusing and grammatically incorrect, but its not, I promise.) Photographing people is my passion because you will never laugh, kiss, or even sneeze the same way twice. I do not only want to simply make a visual record of your day, but help you relive the emotions, beauty and truth in your life when you see the images.


I have had a camera around my neck for seven years and have been shooting weddings since 2006. I graduated from George Fox University, earning a degree in Studio Art with an emphasis in Photography.

Michelle and Jeff – The Album!

Michelle and Jeff are getting a pearl finish landscape coffee table album. I’m a bit excited for this one. All of the beautiful greenery on white will be beautiful with the pearly finish!

Julia and Asa – “Backyard Garden” Wedding

i put quotes around” Backyard Garden” because I guess technically it is, but it really belongs on the front page of every home and garden magazine. This is Julia’s mother’s home and she is the master landscaper behind it all. What a beautiful place to celebrate! I shot this wedding as second to Andy Andrews, owner of Muse Photography. I forgot how much fun it is to assist. I really had time to slow down and look for perfect shots rather than shoot frantically, hoping to not miss a thing. Andy is good friends with the bride and groom and traveled all the way from Arizona to capture their weekend of bliss. Thanks so much for letting me be a part of this beautiful day.
