I am originally from Tucson, Az. Born and raised! I service Tucson and all of Southern Arizona including Willcox(where I reside now), Bisbee, Benson, Safford Sierra Vista, Vail, Amado and many more! I love nature and all of it's beauty! I definitely love showcasing that beauty in my sessions!  I take my time and edit every session with a feel for the moment and the lighting. Because every session is so unique, every edit is unique to that session.

I began my love affair with the camera in 2009 when my mother was going to school for landscape architecture with her BFA in Photography. I would go with her on her assignments and I would bring my little point and shoot and shoot away while she was taking photos for her class. Not too long after, I bought a used dslr, then not too long after that, my husband bought me my first big girl camera in 2014.

I'm not going to lie, the amount of buttons and options compared to my little point and shoot model overwhelmed me when I dove into a real professional camera. After getting a grasp on the basics and eager to learn, I read the manual from front to back, read books, and joined some amazing groups of other professionals. The more I became acquainted with my camera and learned how to manipulate it, the more I fell in love with the art of taking photographs. 

The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree because my grandfather was a first lieutenant in the Air Force (called the Air Corps then) and During WWII he took black and white photos from the airplanes during that time. And my paternal grandfather was an amazing artist whos art is hanging on my walls decorating my home. Spending time with him in his studio growing up has definitely been a big influence to my love of art. He was friends with Ted Degrazia, who was an inspiration to him as well. They met in Tucson working for the Civilian Conservation Corps together.

Today, I'm proud to say that I've had hundreds of fabulous human beings step in front of my lens. Although I take a storytelling approach, I do take help with outfit ideas to the perfect location. I think things through from start to finish, head to toe, foreground to background.

Why so thorough? Because I believe details are exceedingly important. For that reason, I work closely with my clients to ensure they look and feel amazing the day of our shoot. I love receiving texts and emails of what you plan to wear and bounce ideas off of each other. I also love hearing about all of the details of your wedding day, and love capturing those special candid moments. I love coordinating color schemes with clients that look amazing wherever you choose to shoot!

Whether it be a local spot, or on a cliff somewhere in nature!

 My specialties are Weddings, Elopements and Engagements and Boudoir. I also do Families, Seniors, Maternity and other Portrait sessions such as branding and headshots.

 I do spend my free time out in nature. My husband and I go on adventures together with our pups in tow most of the time! My father in law didn't start calling me bucket list for no reason! We also love going to National Parks and Landmarks, Ghost Towns and anything abandoned. I sell my fine art photos of them. And you can find my gallery here! I am always adding to it, so keep checking back. If there's something you are looking for, just ask, I might have it!

I absolutely love everything about what I do! Especially the amazing people I have been fortunate to photograph over the years.

 I hope that from this brief introduction of myself, you understand that I am not just a person who takes random pictures. I am a photographer, I capture the inner and outer essence of whoever is standing on the other side of my lens.
