Thank you for showing interest in my photography and for wanting to learn more about me. I was born in a suburban town near Pittsburgh, and grew up in Maryland and Virginia before attending college in Salisbury, Maryland. I lived in the North East Pennsylvania area for about 23 years and raised my family there. In June of 2019, I decided to move to Bradenton, Florida, to be close to the peaceful Gulf of Mexico. As much as I love snow, it was challenging to manage during heavy snowfalls, so I now enjoy the sunny climate of Florida.
In my free time, you can find me walking, cycling, reading on the beach, or enjoying the water on my paddleboard. I am also an avid skier, but my skis are temporarily tucked away for now.
Photography has been a part of my life since I was young. I was co-editor of my high school yearbook and I have always had a passion for children. I started babysitting at the age of twelve and continued through college. My goal was to become an elementary school teacher, but I discovered the field of newborn photography later in life. While I was a stay-at-home mother for nearly 20 years, I always had my camera with me and took photos of my children, friends, and relatives. I was even the co-editor and photographer of the PTA's yearbook for a few years. After many years of encouragement from family and friends, I decided to pursue photography professionally in 2016.
Beyond photography, I have a strong belief in the power of prayer and that ordinary acts of kindness can make the world a better place. I am a proud mother of three adult children and I am dedicated to capturing memories that will be cherished for years to come.
I can't wait to help you tell your Love, Baby & Family story.
