A life told
frame by frame

I'm a storyteller drawn to connection, emotion, and the beauty of real life. My work is rooted in honesty and intention. I'm not here to manufacture perfect moments. I'm here to preserve the ones that already exist.

The Work

The chapters I document

Four seasons of life. Each one deserves its own story.

Weddings

Your wedding day is one of the greatest stories you'll ever live. I move quietly through the scene — watching, waiting, witnessing. What I give back to you is not a record of the day. It's the feeling of it.

Family Sessions

The piggyback rides. The way a child laughs at something only they understand. The quiet moment when a parent looks at their kid and forgets you're there. That's what I'm after. That's the archive you'll return to.

The Waiting

Maternity

There is a particular kind of beauty in anticipation. In the body holding space for another life. This season passes faster than it should, and it deserves to be remembered — softly, honestly, exactly as it felt.

The Beginning

Newborn

In-home. Unhurried. Documentary. The first chapter of a life — the sleepy weight of them, the impossibly small hands, the way everything in the room holds its breath. I come to you and I disappear into the story.

has a gift for making you forget you're being photographed. Our kids were just being kids — running, laughing, being wild — and somehow she captured the most beautiful images I've ever seen of our family. I cried when I saw the gallery.

We hired for our wedding and I am so, so grateful. She was calm when everything felt chaotic. She was present for every quiet moment, and she delivered photos that tell the whole story of our day. Our families were completely blown away.

Things worth knowing

Absolutely. I serve families and couples throughout and beyond — , , , , , and across Minnesota. Travel fees may apply for locations beyond 30 miles from .

For family and maternity sessions, 4–6 weeks out is ideal. Weddings typically book 9–18 months in advance. Fall is Minnesota's most requested season — if you have a date, reach out sooner than you think you need to.

Documentary and warm. I don't direct — I observe. I move through your day or your family like a quiet witness, and I come back with the real thing. My editing is film-inspired: soft, warm, honest, and timeless.

Family and lifestyle sessions: 2–3 weeks. Wedding galleries: 6–8 weeks. You'll receive a sneak peek within a few days of your session — a handful of frames to hold you over.

I send a complete style guide after booking. The short version: wear what makes you feel like yourself. Lean toward soft tones — creams, warm neutrals, earthy greens, dusty blues. Skip big logos and busy patterns. Comfort reads as confidence on camera.
