Behind the lens

With my whimsical, carefree vibe, you can bet it's the real deal! As a Minneapolis wedding photographer and family photographer, I thrive on capturing life's little joys! I especially look forward to every day when shared with my favorite people: my amazing husband, Casey, and our whirlwind of delight, our daughter Kailey, who’s growing faster than I can keep up with!

Exploring different cultures and places fuels my passion for adventure—Vancouver, B.C. holds a special place in my heart. And my love affair with food? It's more than flavors; it's a worldwide connection, a language we all speak.

Animals bring boundless joy to my life with their adorable antics, and when I'm not behind the camera, I channel my creative energy into cooking, crafting, and painting. These bursts of lively expression add color and joy to my world.

As your Minneapolis wedding photographer or family photographer, I sprinkle joy and life adventures into every session. Let’s capture some memories together—fun and laughter guaranteed!
