Meet me + Mine
I live in Northern Utah with the love of my life and our three wild children. My favorite things include our weekly date night, lifting heavy things at the gym, hiking easy trails with my kids, and game nights with friends.
My Origin Story
Black Friday 2008, I excitedly bought my first digital camera, but left nothing in savings for Christmas gifts. So I used my new camera to create personality-filled portraits of my siblings as presents for my parents. Those photos hung in their home and sparked referrals, leading me to study with the New York Institute of Photography.
After graduating from NYIP in 2009, I launched my photography business in Logan, Utah, focusing on weddings and families. Since then, I’ve expanded into branding and events, traveled across the U.S. and Europe, earned awards, been published, and taught workshops—capturing meaningful moments every step of the way.
Ive been mentoring, hosting workshops and cheering on other small business owners since 2018. I wanted to take it to the next level, so I studied Digital Marketing with the University of Utah, earning several professional certificates.
The Most meaningful photo ive ever taken
My Dad had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and after 4 years of battling, we knew his time on this earth was coming to an end. So of course we did family photos. He is absolutely beaming in every photo from this shoot - surrounded by the people he loved.
When it came time to do photos with my mom, he could not keep it together. He never said a word, but he didnt have to. The moment landed perfectly. And it was such an honor to capture it for my family to have now that he is gone.
It’s a treasure to have such a powerful image to remember this impactful truth - my Dad loved his life and he loved us. This is why this work matters so deeply to me. This is why I want to capture something real for you.
I practice what I preach
I get family photos taken every year, and my favorites are always the fun, personality filled ones.
