At the end of the day, my why is simple: I just really love people. I love connecting with people and meeting them where they are at. There’s so much vulnerability in taking photos and often it brings out the most real conversations and moments that I treasure forever.

I was actually born all the way down in Santiago, Chile - my parents were missionaries there at the time - but I grew up in Woodinville, Washington.

Eventually, I moved to Phoenix, Arizona to attend GCU, and I’ve been here ever since. I met my wonderful husband while attending GCU, and now we call Phoenix home.

One of my favorite parts of this job is that it takes me all over. I’ve been lucky enough to travel to places like Kentucky, Wyoming, California, and back to Washington to capture weddings and tell people’s stories.

First up is my wonderful husband — my best friend and partner in every adventure. We honestly have the most fun doing anything together, whether it’s binge-watching a show on the couch or booking last-minute flights to explore a new city. Our families mean absolutely everything to us. I’m so grateful for the loving & encouraging family God has blessed me with — they’ve shaped me into who I am today and remind me daily why loving people well matters so much.

If i’m not shooting you can probably find me going to the movie theater with my husband, visiting our families in Washington or Colorado, binging a show with my best friends, or trying out a new restaurant. I LOVE spontaneous adventures, but i also love staying at home listening to podcasts and watching a rom com.
