About Me

I'm a 46-year-old single, homeschooling mama to six amazing kids, ages 5 to 26. I grew up in Dayton, Ohio, and studied Photography at Sinclair Community College back in 1999—back when 35mm film was the norm!

Photography has always been my passion. As a kid, I spent hours looking through my mom’s old photos, mesmerized by the stories they told. Then, when I became a mother myself, I truly understood the importance of capturing those fleeting moments—because they grow up way too fast. After losing my 22-year-old son unexpectedly, that truth became even more profound. Every photograph is a reminder of the love, the laughter, and the time we never get back, which is why I’m so passionate about preserving those memories for other families.

Now, I pour my heart and soul into every session, preserving memories that families can cherish forever. Seeing my lifelong dream come to life is something I’m endlessly grateful for.
