Affordable, authentic photography for families and couples in Greater Cincinnati.

I have been working part-time as a photographer for over eight years while also raising two children and loving on my husband. I love traveling, paddleboarding, dancing, Harry Potter, rom-coms, and almost anything created by Greg Daniels and Michael Schur.

It's important to me that everything from the booking process to your actual photoshoot is straightforward and ENJOYABLE! A photoshoot is never something to be stressed about, so I'll be quick to remind you to lower your expectations and let yourself have fun.

If you're looking for a photographer, here are a few things you might like about me:

I have a passion for working with kids. I bring a lot of energy and patience to each session, and I have quite a few tricks up my sleeve to wrangle fast toddlers and angsty teens! Sometimes things don't go as planned. Kids are unpredictable. I've learned to have realistic expectations and embrace the beautiful chaos that often unfolds when children are around.(Obviously, if you don't have kids, you can ignore this part, but ask me about my hair trick sometime. It even makes adults laugh.)

I’m resourceful. I work creatively to keep my sessions affordable without sacrificing quality. I’ve invested in the essentials without splurging on the bells and whistles so that more families and couples have the opportunity to invest in professional photography.

I’m just a person. Okay, that one seems weird, but hear me out. Not many people, myself included, truly enjoy being in front of a photographer with a big camera. It can feel awkward or make you self-conscious. I understand what that's like (ahem, TRUST ME). I'm not here to pose you in a weird way for the sake of "my art". I want you to think of me as your friend who makes bad jokes and just happens to have a nice camera. My job is to help you feel at ease while capturing you (and your family) in a way that feels natural.
