My photography journey began when I picked up my first camera at 14. My love for photography started with photographing nature, precisely the tiny things in nature most people wouldn't usually notice. While I still love photographing nature, my focus has switched to capturing my amazing clients and their special memories!

I was born and raised in a small town 30-minutes south of the Twin Cities. I met the man of my dreams while studying (let's be honest, I was talking to my friends) in our college library. After a few short months of dating, we knew we were meant for each other! Three years later, we tied the knot! Well before Alex got down on one knee, we put a down payment on our adorable Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Kipper. We can't imagine our life without him! Ask me about him at your photo shoot, and I'll show you a few hundred pictures of him!


A Peek Into My Life

i'm a Plant Mom

get to know me

Growing up, my mom always took photos of our family on vacations, spending time with our family and friends, and other special occasions. As I’ve gotten older, I love looking back on those memories, but I wish my mom was in the photos with us. That’s why I became a photographer! I want you to be in the photos with your family, soaking in every minute.

Fast forward to when your children are adults looking back on your family photos, they’ll remember all the great memories and be so happy to see you in the photos with them! Trust me, they'll thank you for documenting their childhood and capturing the love you've had for them all these years.

How It All Started

A Day in My Life

As a small business owner, no day is ever the same for me, which I love. Some days I wake up and get right to work, and other days I take my time and enjoy the morning. Weekends are usually packed with sessions, but if I have a weekend off, Alex and I like exploring new coffee shops, book stores, and plant stores (because I always need more plants), or we like to spend the weekend outside or with our family and friends. 


Fun Facts About Me....

  • I'm a born and raised Minnesotan, but I'm not a fan of cold weather or snow. If I had it my way I would be living in the PNW (Pacific North West); specifically in Oregon. One place that's a must-see for me is Multnomah Falls in Oregon. Look it up and you'll find out why.

  • Kipper’s name comes from a cartoon I used to watch as a kid: Kipper the Dog. On the show, Kipper is a British Beagle, but I felt like the name would fit the personality of a Corgi much better!

  • My friends and family call me a crazy plant lady. I have 20 houseplants and counting. Needless to say, I would live in a greenhouse in a heartbeat! One of my favorite house plants that I own is the Monstera Deliciosa! I have four of them, all of which I propagated from my first Monstera plant.

  • Although I love all kinds of food, I crave Chipotle 24/7 (no joke)! My order has been and always will be: A bowl with white rice, Chicken (or Al Pastor if it's available) mild salsa, and shredded cheese! Mhmm...I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

  • I'm a firm believer in leaving things better than you found it. I love the motto, "Take only pictures, leave only foot prints". There is no planet B, so we need to take care of what we're standing on. Whenever we get the chance, Alex and I like to go for walks and pick up any trash we find.
