Love. Smile. Be your beautifully quirky selves…
I’ll do the rest.
Let’s be honest, my approach to photography may not be considered mainstream. Yes, I love a beautiful image of a happy smiling family, but for me there’s so much more to it. Photography is an artistic story, the process of a photographer and subject creating a beautiful story cemented in time. If you’re just looking for those five perfectly composed images, then we may not be a good fit. And there’s nothing wrong with that! But if you’re looking for an experience, a collaboration where we create a full album of memories with no restrictions, then I think we’ll get along just fine. I put my heart and soul into each and every session (I think your love deserves that at the very least), and all I ask is for you to give me a tiny glimpse into yours as well. Let’s create something you’ll cherish for the rest of your lives!
Near or far…
I’m a photographer of laid back adventurers, dreamers, and wild hearted lovers. Intimate wedding on your parent’s farm? I’m in. Elopement to the wilds of Alaska? Sure, why not! Whether you’re aiming for the comforts of home or eloping somewhere new and exciting let me know, I’m always up for a good adventure and to witness some real, rad love.

Elisabeth & Stephen
A gorgeous sunset, stunning red dress, and one of the most fun couples on Earth made Elisabeth and Stephen's engagement session on Assateague, Virginia, one of my favorites of the season. Bubbly and tender at the same time, these two were an absolute dream to work...
Ashley & Alex | Maternity
Two ballroom dancers, a sweet baby belly, and a serene setting made Ashley and Ivan's maternity session on Assateague one of my favorites to date. Their natural flow (a combination of their physical presence and comfort with each other) created some truly stunning...
Davis & Joseph
Davis & Joseph's Chincoteague wedding this past spring was a breath of fresh air after a year where most couples dealt with condensed guests lists, last minute vendor cancellations, and all things stressful and unpleasant when it comes to wedding planning. They...
Elizabeth & Tyler | Maternity
I met up with Elizabeth and Tyler for their Assateague Maternity session this past fall while they were in Chincoteague for vacation. As you can tell they were both totally laid back and light hearted, up for whatever I threw at them. Their sweet little girl is one...
Kelsey & Michael
Kelsey and Michael's wedding at Captain's Cove in Greenbackville, Virginia, this past year was one that was literally years in the making. After lots of rescheduling though there were able to finally celebrate with loved ones in a ceremony that was equally moving and...
Katelin & Matthew | Maternity
Katelin and Matthew traveled down from my hometown (completely coincidentally) to spend a little time together on Chincoteague before the arrival of their little one, and we were able to spend some time together on Assateague for their maternity session to commemorate...

Allie's easy-going and down to earth personality is just what we were looking for. We didn't feel posed or pressured to look a certain way...we just acted like ourselves! Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and she truly captured that!
