A safe space for the outcasts & weirdos who never felt like they "fit in"

aka "about me"

I used to work corporate and hated every single secong being tied to a desk and feeling like a caged bird who just longed to create. So I hustled a lot and finally quit my job and went full time in my photo business. Now I get to meet the coolest people, document love, and create badass art along the way.  Think of me as your edgy, quirky, elder emo BFF who loves making photo shoots feel like you're just hangin' out.

I've been hooked on photography since I was a kid, like quite literally obsessed with all things "cameras," and studied black and white photography in college. I'd get access to the university dark room after hours and it would be just me, the red light, and the developing chemicals until 2 o'clock in the morning. It was the only thing that ever made my mind shut the hell up and I fell even more in love.  Sadly, that couldn't help me pay my rent and bills at 18 so I fell into the corporate trap, but I never stopped obsessing. Anyway... 'nuff about that.

My style is a mix of documentary, creative flair. and a healthy dose of “fuck it, screw rules.” I'm drawn to couples who aren’t afraid to be themselves. The couples who want their day captured exactly how it was. If MySpace were still a thing, I'd definitely be on your Top 8. I’m a proud member of the elder emo club, and I’ll probably always be rocking Vans, combat boots, ripped jeans, and band tees. I’m neurospicy, music-obsessed, and always up for trying something new. I didn't sell my soul at a 9-5 to do the same thing in my own business. So I show up 100% as myself and I want you to feel 100% comfortable to do the same. 

ALL LOVE IS WELCOME HERE. 
ALL HUMANS ARE CELEBRATED HERE.

The only people I won't work with? Assholes🤘
