Preserving Family Legacies
CAPTURING YOUR TINIEST MOMENTS
We are so lucky to have a camera literally in our pockets at all times, but there are some moments that need to be physically printed and framed, not lost on social media or your camera roll. I truly believe that there is nothing more beautiful than seeing your child's portrait printed on a high quality cotton paper.
Are you guilty (like so many of us are) of leaving your photos on your hard drive never to be seen again? Printing your images on your own can be intimidating, but it's my specialty! In fact, I have my own fine art printer! Leave the hard part to me - just sit back and enjoy the final product.
My photography journey began 20 years ago, but it was after my children were born that my skill turned into a passion as I immediately knew the importance of preserving these special memories.
My previous photography experience includes figure skating photography at the ice rink in Irmo, dolphin interaction photography at Sea Life Park in Hawaii, and a 10 year career as a photographer at Walt Disney World! I've worked with several very high profile subjects including Mickey Mouse, Cinderella, and Tinkerbell.
Our family grew by one sweet little girl in 2019! And you can bet her photographer mama has filled dozens of memory cards with sweet newborn moments!

It's probably obvious at this point that I am an animal lover! Some of my favorites are cats, koalas, penguins, octopus, and of course orcas.

I cannot live without it! I especially love the seasonal flavors that come around in fall and winter - PSL and peppermint mocha are life!
COFFEE
Although it's way more difficult these days with two small kiddos, we always make a point of going on at least one special "birthday trip" every year because our birthdays are back to back! It's a great excuse to plan a trip!
