For over 12 years capturing families and intimate weddings have been my jam and something that still brings me so much joy and happiness to this day. It all started when I picked up my moms film camera back in high school and wanted to learn how to use it. I enrolled in classes to help me learn to work a camera, develop film, develop prints in the darkroom, and so much more. I fell in love with the craft of it and never looked back. I still remember my first ever paid session (and still one of my top favorites ever). It was for my grandparents! My grandma paid me $40 to take pictures of her and my grandpa in my moms driveway. I remember my grandpa was fooling around and kept giving her bunny ears and laughing so hard that he drooled — while my grandma was so dang serious about “We paid her to take these, quit it!” Its the moments like those that I will always remember each time I look at those photos.
