While talking IS my jam, talking about myself is generally not.

Let me take a second to think about what you may actually want to know about me.

Born and raised in Northern Illinois, I have a BA in Journalism from Eastern Illinois University. With my love of art and storytelling, I have spent the last 15 years documenting hundreds of love stories while being a professional wedding photographer.

By default, I became very intertwined in the world of weddings and started to wonder how I could help future brides and grooms have the best day ever.

Hence the planning advice addition to my business. It’s new, but I’m loving every minute of it!

Outside of weddings, my number one love will always be my now 17-year-old daughter, Annabelle.
