People find it hard to place exactly where I’m based and in many ways, that’s part of my story. I was born and raised on a seventh generation farm in a small town in western Kentucky, where family, legacy, and deep roots shaped so much of who I am.

When my husband moved to Florida to work as a boat captain for three years while we were dating/engaged, that chapter became part of our foundation too.  Kentucky will always be home, but Florida feels like another piece of my heart. My life and business naturally move between both, blending my southern roots with a love for the coast. Traveling so much between these locations is what sparked my love for travel and documenting love stories wherever they unfold.

Wherever your celebration takes you, I’m always ready to follow you.

I married the love of my life this past October, and even after seven years of documenting weddings, the experience changed me in ways I never expected. Standing on the other side of the camera gave me a deeper understanding of what this season truly feels like. The anticipation, the vulnerability, the quiet moments that pass faster than you ever imagine. It reminded me that a wedding is not just a beautiful event, but an emotional, once in a lifetime chapter. That perspective now lives in everything I do, allowing me to serve my couples with even more care, connection, and purpose because I know firsthand how meaningful every small moment really is.

about me

I am a 25 year old storyteller with a heart rooted in faith, connection, and meaningful experiences. I love Jesus, I love traveling to places that inspire wonder, and I have always been drawn to the finer things in life. I believe in welcoming people with open arms and kindness. If we ever meet, you’ll find that Southern hospitality isn’t just a phrase to me and that I truly have never met a stranger. I love my HUGE family & cherish every moment with them. I may never slow down, but I will always stop and smell the roses. I have always loved to  create, and I know that part of me will never change. I care so much for others and will pour all of my energy into making sure everyone around me is taken care of.

And this same heart is what I bring into every wedding I document, creating a space where you feel seen, cared for, and celebrated in a way that lasts far beyond the day itself.
