Meet the Photographer
As a mom of three, I understand how incredibly fast the years pass. Scary fast, in fact! I can hardly believe my twins are TEN and my littlest is four!! :o) So often I’ve wished I could pause or rewind time and enjoy a stage just a *tiny* bit longer.
That’s why I love what I do so much. It’s extremely rewarding to get to know your family and capture moments of love & connection – the things that make life BIG and worth living – and turn them into works of art you and your children will treasure looking back on for a lifetime!
I began my business way back in 2011 and had the privilege photographing some amazing families in my hometown of St. Louis for nearly 10 years. My family and I recently made the big decision to downsize and see more of the “world” while our kids are still young so we sold it all and headed south!
I’m now proud to offer custom portraits in the Sarasota & Bradenton area in Southwest Florida, specializing in newborn photography, child photography, maternity portraits, family pictures, and high school senior portraits. I would be honored to be the photographer that captures your fleeting moments and greatly appreciate you would consider working with me.
Professionally, I’m an UMSL alumni with a Bachelors of Fine Arts with an emphasis in Graphic Design. Before I started my business, I worked a number of years in marketing & interactive media and I love that I’m able to use those skills in what I do today. As for life beyond photography, my world is my family. It’s fun to watch our kids grow into little people and enjoy life through their eyes and, while there is certainly less “me” time than ever before, I wouldn’t trade this kind of busyness for anything! You can follow me over on Instagram for a tiny dose of our everyday adventures! Thanks for taking time out to learn a little about who I am. I hope you’ll stick around and take a look at some of my recent sessions over on the blog or on Facebook.
Look forward to talking with you!
