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!

BASKETBALL COACHES CLINIC

I had a great time shooting one of the Atlanta Hawks recent special events. The Hawks offer a special basketball coaches clinic to any coach hoping to brush up on their skills from some of the best in the business. The wide array of coaches had a blast touring the Hawks facilities–everything from their locker rooms to the practice court. They were also given special coaching tips from the Hawks assistant coach Jim Todd.
