As a professional photographer, I am thrilled to share with you my passion for capturing the beauty of family life. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, I am an international award-winning photographer with a specialty in family portraiture. My journey began in Westfield, New Jersey, where I had the privilege of capturing the love and laughter of hundreds of families during my first six years in business. After relocating to the South Charlotte area of North Carolina in 2015, I continued to grow and expand my expertise, earning the recognition of my peers and clients alike.
As a mother myself, I understand the importance of preserving cherished memories and creating beautiful, timeless images of your family. I believe that family life is a precious gift, and it's my honor to help you preserve those memories for years to come. My photography style is centered around capturing the genuine sweetness of childhood and the beauty of everyday life, not just posed and contrived moments.
