Some days I would say that all you need to know about me is that I am mother. I have a beautiful son named Blaze.  I am a wife, married to my first great love Jeff, whom I have known since I was 18.  I certainly love to share stories, and love to meet new people.  I love to have new experiences and take nothing for granted.

Though I am all that I mentioned above, I am an artist, and in all the stages of my life I have always been able to express myself through art.  My artistic expression came out in all kinds of ways.  Drawing, painting, sculpture, sewing, fashion, knitting and crochet, air brushing, scrap booking, baking and cake design, graphic design and most important to me, photography.

Photography was never just taking a photo, it was a memory captured.  Whether it is of beautiful scenery, regular artifacts in everyday life or of someone special, with their special someones.

I have been behind a camera for a large majority of my life, right before my son was born in 2012 I knew that I would start a portrait photography business.  I had bought all the gear and started my research and knew that when the time was right I would get the word out.  Life had a different immediate path for me.  Before my son turned one, I was diagnosed with stage 4 Follicular Lymphoma.  I am so grateful to say that today I am in remission and looking at life and the world around me through a new lens. Sorry to use the pun, but it fits my perspective so well.  My experiences have molded me and prepared me so that I can now help others see what I see when documenting in photography.

My goal is to capture beautiful images that hold meaning and emotion, to document that special moment so that you can enjoy and share for all time.   Mixing my creativity and passion with real life to capture images that are as precious to you as the moments themselves.

Now you know a little about me, I hope you will allow me into your life so that I can learn about you and your story.  Give me the honour of being a part of your life's events and I will give you a professional and comfortable experiences that will produce photos that you can cherish for life.
