When I'm not chasing my favourite little model around (my four year old daughter) I can be found pursuing one of my many creative interests including writing, gardening, painting, making jewelry, traveling, listening to music or just general crafting.
It wasn't until I was doing my daughter's one year photoshoot that I realized just how much and how quickly she had grown. I had dedicated myself to doing a shoot with her every month to document the incredible changes she had undergone and I was blown away! That's when I realized how quickly time passes by without even realizing it and I decided to help other's capture those important once in a lifetime moments before they’re gone.
These minutes turn to moments that fly away into weeks and suddenly a year has passed.
I love to travel and explore new places near and far and have drove across the country to California and back twice and even traveled to Ireland. I have always seen the world with a slightly obtuse view and have been passionate about creating unique art since I was young.
Be who you Want to be not who you're Expected to be.
After the first time I traveled across the country I became fascinated by how different people lived and wanted to capture the uniqueness of their stories and the places they lived. I love when I can capture someone's image and it becomes more than just a photo; it's a part of who they are in this moment in time, never to be recreated again. In my many years behind the camera I’ve had the opportunity to help various businesses with promotions, capture weddings, family moments, countless events, and have met many interesting people and creatures along the way.
But most of all I'm excited to meet new people and try new things!
I recently moved back to my hometown of Fremont, Michigan but still frequently visit Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids and surrounding areas so traveling is not an issue.
