Having worked as a professional photographer for the past 12 years, I have been incredibly fortunate to capture amazing images both on assignment and on personal projects throughout the U.S. and many other countries. Photographing weddings has become a true joy of mine as it allows me to tell the story of one of life’s best days: the love, excitement, energy, emotion and pure happiness of a couple on their wedding day!

I studied journalism with an emphasis in photojournalism at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. After graduation I worked for a variety of organizations and publications including a commercial photography studio in Atlanta, as the staff photographer for the Fulton County Daily Report, a freelancer for the Australian Associated Press and continuing freelance work for various publications.

When not shooting a wedding or working on other photo assignments, you will definitely find me out hiking or camping or generally finding any excuse to be outside! I love taking fun classes and have done everything from Vietnamese and Spanish courses to pottery, horseback riding, knitting, ballet, belly dancing, yoga, oil painting…and the list goes on!

PIEDMONT PARK FAMILY SESSION

I have always loved shooting family sessions–but now that I have my own daughter I understand even more deeply the value of capturing this time in a child’s life that is so fleeting! Just look at the ever adorable Davis–he is already 10 months old and has grown so fast since I photographed him a few months ago! Number one–I simply love this family (and as you all may remember I photographed their wedding a few years ago)! It’s just the best thing ever to see a child’s face light up when interacting with mom and dad–and Davis just loves everything they do!
