I'm from Pennsylvania, but have been calling Boston my home for the past 12 years. I moved here without a job and just a gut feeling of what I wanted to do with my life. After years of day dreaming about being a photographer, I finally went for it! I spent hours learning from other photographers online, reading blogs, and making my friends and even my parents (love you guys!) pose to help me practice. In 2015, I launched my business and will never forget the feeling of nervousness, excitement, and pure joy I felt because I finally knew what I was meant to do in life. Photography isn’t just my job, it’s my passion and I am so excited that I get to share it with you!

I went to Bates College and have photographed 13 Bates weddings since starting my business eight years ago. To all my Batesies out there, it's always a great day to be a Bobcat!
The dog I grew up with, Tootsie, was my inspiration behind becoming a dog photographer. I loved taking photos of her even though she was definitely my toughest model to-date!
I was a Special Education teacher for 5 years while pursuing my dream of becoming a photographer. I've been full-time for six years now!
I'm married to my high school sweetheart, best friend, and favorite photographer (who's also my second shooter sometimes!). We welcomed our daughter, Zoey, at the end of 2022 and needless to say, we are a little obsessed with her!

Watching Friends episodes on repeat
