My Why....

I started photography because I wanted beautiful artistic photos of my kid's childhood and our adventures in gorgeous Washington state. I spent a few years documenting all the in-between moments and real life memories of our family. I became an expert at finding artistic angles and camera settings that made what seemed like a mundane moment look beautiful and nostalgic through my lens. I became passionate about the power of romanticizing crazy chaotic childhood and parenthood through images that don't just remind us what it looked like, but also what these moments felt like. I have had a photography business for four years now, and help Gig Harbor and surrounding Pierce County families preserve their family memories into beautiful art and printed keepsakes.
