Photography holds a very special place in my heart because it's truly apart of who I am. I used to take photos of everything with my mom's point and shoot, getting giddy with excitement over a picture of a leaf. I still embrace the same genuine excitement when I photograph today. I grew up drawing alongside my dad, sketching for hours and teaching myself new ways to improve. Photography became a new and exciting art form, eyeing each photo like a painting. From the way the light hits your face, the movement in your dress, the slight touch between hands. To create something so beautiful and timeless is an honor.

My inspiration is rooted in my family, as they're a constant reminder that life is beautiful and ever changing. Documenting my children grow has given me a new outlook on the importance of the "mundane", and how often we go to re-live those memories. Thankful I can do this for others, it's the biggest honor.
