When I first started my business almost eight years ago, I thought the hardest part would be dealing with people. I wasn’t exactly a natural at it. I felt awkward, shy, and like I didn’t quite belong. I had fallen deeply in love with photography, but turning that love into a career felt like a […]

Somewhere along the way, weddings became productions. Couples are expected to entertain guests, stick to traditions they don’t care about, and spend the entire day performing happiness for an audience. It’s no wonder so many people tell me they’re worried about feeling stressed, awkward, or disconnected on their wedding day. But your wedding doesn’t have […]

When Emi and Dylan started planning their wedding, they knew one thing for certain: they wanted to be fully present. They didn’t want to spend their day moving from one photo opportunity to the next. They didn’t want a long list of poses or a timeline packed with back-to-back portraits. Instead, they wanted to focus […]

Bringing a new baby home changes the rhythm of everyday life in the most beautiful way. The days feel slower, emotions sit closer to the surface, and the smallest moments suddenly carry so much meaning. That’s why I love photographing families in the spaces where these memories naturally unfold. My approach to in-home documentary-style newborn […]

There is something deeply powerful about seeing yourself reflected in the world around you. For many LGBTQ+ families, that visibility hasn’t always existed, especially in spaces like family photography. That’s why gay family photos are more than just images. They are affirmations, documentation, and quiet acts of visibility that say, “we are here, and our […]

There’s something really special about documenting love in places that already hold joy. Alex and Hayley’s engagement session at Sugar n’ Spice Restaurant was exactly that. As a Cincinnati engagement photographer, I’m always drawn to locations that feel personal, playful, and a little nostalgic and this one checked every box. Why Sugar & Spice Was […]
