Who Am I?
I'm a mom, a photographer, a member of my community, a best friend, a sister, and a girl in love.
I love my family, my cats, & boardgames.
I loooove sleeping in.
I'm a night owl...admittedly.
I can't BBQ, but LOVE to eat it!
I love movies, but can't sit still long enough to watch them.
I love to shop, but I DON'T need any more shoes!
I love fine ales, but couldn't brew my own to save my life!
My favorite toy is my Polaroid camera. :)
I'm inspired by my clients and how hard they work.
Who Am I Professionally?
I'm from Miami, Florida. I earned my degree from WIU (Macomb, Il) in 2008. I come from a family of professional photographers. My gear is full frame Nikon. I enjoy hosting workshops for beginner photographers & offer private tutoring sessions for people who want to get to know their camera better.
WHERE I SHOOT:
I shoot the majority of my weddings in Peoria, Burlington, Galesburg, Quincy, Ft. Madison, Macomb, Bloomington, & all over West Central Illinois. I am a destination photographer and as such my passport is up to date.
HOW I WORK:
As an on location lifestyle photographer, I do most of my work outside of the studio, even in the winter. My clients come to me for unique and authentic images that represent who they are. I work hard to create unique images for unique individuals and as you can see by my portfolio, those are the type of clients I attract:
Fun, fresh, different!

I am happy to shoot outside of McDonough County, Il. Shoot me an email and we can discuss fuel/mileage fees.
Great job!… for just a girl with a camera trying her best
Love how you made the point about piknik and picasa without being rude or arrogant as I have read others!! Thought it was great how you offered info about the trial download of LR, very thoughtful and caring! I <3 LR. Very well written, not arrogant or boss…but friendly and informative!
Great post! Thank you for sharing. It’s good to hear that someone who I think is amazing is still practicing. It gives me hope!
Thank you so much for commenting Erin. I think it’s important to remember, we are ALL still learning.
No one is exempt from that rule. <3
Heather, I’m so grateful you took the time to comment. Seriously. I honestly believe that we are all just trying to do the best we can with what we have and if what we have can offer some insight, we should share. That’s all I’m trying to do. Maybe some people are on a different path and my help doesn’t mean much, but I firmly believe that there’s someone out there that might be on the same path as me. So I hope that the info I share, can help them. <3
