Yes. I started my business in 2012 with the goal of making clients feel comfortable and joyful in their pictures. Before that I was a photographer at a corporate studio. So, I've been a professional photographer for over a decade.

My home base is Belle Plaine, Minnesota, south of the Minneapolis St. Paul area. I travel for weddings & portraits in the Twin Cities, including Stillwater, Mankato, St. Cloud, Duluth. I will also travel in the continental United States, so if you're getting married someplace not traditional, like a national park, the mountains, etc, I can get there.

Well, photography is a full-time career, and I wouldn't have it any other way!

However, I spend a lot of my precious free time being a mom. I also love to road trip when I can. Sometimes just up north for an overnight, sometimes farther to places like Yellowstone.  I enjoy reading a variety of fiction and nonfiction. Geology fascinates me. I love to get active by hiking. Bonfires, grilling, experimenting with new recipes, listening to an eclectic mix of podcasts and music, are also things I really enjoy.

Full disclosure: I have a sense of humor, and it's a little quirky. I will say silly things to get you to smile during photos. I know how to take charge and move fast during family pictures, and also when to slow down for the quiet and serious moments.
