'm a Leavenworth local who loves mountain views, ski days, kids, animals, and a bit of chaos.
I’ve spent the last 10 years photographing people here, and somewhere along the way I realized the best photos rarely come from asking everyone to stand still and smile.
I’ll help you find the perfect location, guide you so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands, and then leave plenty of room for the good stuff to happen naturally. My work has been published, but my favorite photos are still the ones that feel unmistakably like the people in them.
There’s a lot more to the story—including 30 foster kids, a neighborhood petting zoo, and why I sometimes sketch your poses before I ever meet you. But I’ll save that for the About page.
I’m very hands-on with posing and direction, so you’ll never have to wonder what to do. And if I have a baby bunny, duckling, or another tiny animal around, don’t be surprised if they make a special appearance.
y sessions are playful, easygoing, and usually come with a few fun surprises.
Being a Leavenworth local has its perks, too. I know where the mountains look incredible, where we can escape the crowds, and which locations are worth the drive. I’m constantly watching the light, weather, and seasons and scouting for the best places to photograph.
Basically, you don’t need to know where to go, how to pose, or what to do with your hands. I’ve got that part.
You just show up with your people. I’ll take it from there.
en years behind a camera means I’ve photographed just about everything—from wild toddlers and awkward dads to surprise proposals and giant wedding parties. And plenty of people who warned me beforehand that they’re “really bad at pictures.” (You’re not.)
“We absolutely loved our experience! From the very beginning, everything felt easy and fun. She was amazing with our kids, knew exactly how to get everyone laughing, and somehow managed to capture beautiful photos even in the middle of all our chaos. Nothing felt stiff or overly posed, and our photos genuinely feel like us. We’ll treasure them forever and absolutely book again!”

Beautiful photos are the goal. Having a ridiculously good time getting them is part of the deal.
FUN. BEAUTIFUL.
A LITTLE WILD.
