I’m a California native and lifelong creative, raising two sweet boys with my husband, Ryley, in our charming 1920s historic home in LA County. When I’m not on set or editing, you’ll often find me cooking with my sons Wyatt and Leo, hunting for treasures at local thrift shops, or spending the day in the sun and dirt of our yard. Gardening has become such a rewarding part of my life, reminding me of my late mother, who passed from breast cancer 10 years ago. She not only nurtured my creativity but also inspired my love of the arts. Some of my most cherished possessions are the boxes in my garage filled with photos from her modeling days that made photography tangible to me and an expressive outlet even from a young age.

A passion for storytelling, style, and detail allows me to bring a unique perspective to everything I create. I want to capture not just how things look, but how they feel — because that’s where the true magic is. My approach is thoughtful and playful, and I am always open to exploring new ideas because you never know when a spark will lead to our most amazing work yet.

Currently, I’m shooting with a Canon R5 and a variety of 35mm cameras I’ve collected over the years. And you KNOW I’ve got a stash of creatives I love tapping into for whatever the job calls for. I’d love for you to meet them! :)

With over 5 years of agency experience and more than 11 years of freelance work, I have the versatility and expertise to bring your vision to life, no matter the project.

Let’s connect to discuss your needs and how I can help make them happen.
