Hello! I’m so glad you’re here. While I started my professional career the field of social work, I fell in love with photography and storytelling after becoming a Storyteller for Humans of St. Louis. As I hope you can tell from my website, capturing real people and relationship is my favorite part of photography. I love to take pictures in places that have meaning to the people being photographed, too. I am confident in my craft but always learning and willing to try new ideas and things. I believe that people should feel authentically themselves in their photos and aim to bring out the best in people I shoot.

While not a native of St. Louis, I’ve lived here for fourteen years and consider it home. My partner Ben and I have two kids (Isaac and Lily) and a dog (Justice). We live in South St. Louis City, and I’m always looking for new and interesting places to photograph. Some of my favorite photos end up being of the everyday moments of my kids.

About me

Along with photography, I do storytelling for the following projects:

I appreciate the opportunity to be creative in photography and I’m lucky to have two little people to try new things with. If I get an itch, I’ll build a backdrop whether it’s 314-themed, valentine’s day, or a homemade popsicle cart. I’m always up for the opportunity to create, and my kiddos come along for the ride.

The most important thing to me is that the images I take are authentic in the fact that they capture real people and real emotion, even if we get a little creative on the way!

Handmade LOVE letters for Valentine’s Day. Each one unique.

Fun with some hearts, clouds, and an umbrella raining hearts.

The kids helped me make a 314 day backdrop with all things STL!

Who wouldn’t love a popsicle from this handmade cart and these cuties?
