I believe in capturing your pure essence in every image.

I started my photography journey in the darkroom of one of my college classes. I would say my path to learning photography is a lot more unique in this day in age than other photographers. The first camera I picked up and learned how to use was a film camera (compared to many photographers who started on digital first), and I absolutely loveee that.

I feel that since I learned photography on film first before a digital camera, it's allowed me to take a step back and really think about what I'm taking a photo of, and why I'm choosing to capture it in that light. It stops me from mindlessly clicking my shutter button and forces me to be intentional - which is the kind of photographer I want to be - for myself and for my clients.

I love photographing things that make you think, and  make you feel something.  Some of my favorite images from other photographers are ones that evoke emotion, even if the subject is simply just of nature. Those are the types of photographs I want to always produce. Isn't it special to create feelings from a singular image?

I find that whenever I'm photographing someone's love through my lens, I want to capture them exactly as they are in that moment, and all of their past moments together. My goal when you get your photos back is to make you feel seen as a human being, in a special kind of light you might not have seen in yourself. ♡
