I make people smile for a living. I am a professional relationship builder, family fun-maker, beauty creator, toddler chaser, silly noise making, prompt giving, chaos embracing, smile maker. I am a portrait photographer and artist. It's my mission to bring back printed portraits and to create lasting relationships with clients that turn into friends. We all have cell phones and take millions (ok maybe thousands) of pictures but your legacy will not be passed on to your children and grandchildren through your Facebook or social media accounts. Your children want to see their history every day hanging on your home's walls and in albums. I want to help you leave a lasting legacy and help your children (or future children) feel special and connected through the images we capture together. That starts with your love story and capturing your engagement and wedding and goes all the way through to your children's high school graduations and creating the life of their dreams. Now that my son is grown up and moved out of the house, I know all too well how much of the little details you forget after your kids grow up. I understand the longing to keep them little or to return to such and such a date or time. Portraits and family albums help you rekindle the memories of ages long forgotten. It's my mission to help you capture this moment to share with future generations.
