So I volunteer for The Tiny Footprints Project, where I go into the NICU and take pictures of these miracle little ones for their parents, so that they can remember this time in their lives and have a keepsake of those memories. I’m currently the spotlight photographer of the month there and they asked me for a bio. I have my generic one listed on my bio page, but I thought I might write one here that was a little less formal.
I’m Atlanta (well technically Roswell, a suburb of Atlanta) based, but I travel all of Georgia. It’s gorgeous here and I cherish all the locations I get to be during beautiful days capturing images of my awesome clients. I enjoy all types of photography and I am always learning and experimenting. Primarily I specialize in weddings, engagement, family, and senior portraits, which sounds like a lot of specialities, but those are my real loves. I <3 my prime lenses, and love shooting wide open to get that beautiful bokeh to isolate my subject from the background. My style is more organic and natural. I try not to get super posey with my clients and instead give them some direction and let them interact naturally. The goal during my weddings and sessions, is to just have fun with it and make great memories.
Right now, I’m primarily focused on my family and my business, but when I have time, I love to be outdoors, workout, and travel. Oh, and also spend time with my two rescue lab mixes who are my constant companions at my feet as a I toil away in my editing “cave”.
