Stiff poses and studio lighting are not what you'll get from a session with me. If you are after stunning natural light, gorgeous scenery, laughs and genuine smiles, true emotion and wonderful memories; then I'm the photographer for you. If you want to walk away with timeless, true to color, bold photographs, then we'll probably be a match! My editing & shooting style is true to my training, photojournalistic. I am here to capture raw, true moments. I am not here to capture perfect, shiny, staged moments...because life is not perfect, shiny or staged. It is beautiful, emotional, messy, raw and wild.
My family! I have a 3 year old wild child and a husband, both of whom I adore.
I think it might be Crested Butte...sorry Telluride! I love the small town charm and wide open valleys.
I rode horses competitively all through college! I am a horse girl at heart so if you want to include horses in your session I would love nothing more!
Making a GREAT cup of coffee. I was a barista for almost 6 years.
Any spare time I have, I fill with concerts! You can catch me getting down at all the local venues, and at Phish at least once a year.
Lavender lattes and the entire Yellowstone series.
This is something I feel so passionate about, and I hope it translates in my work. I want to capture you in your element. I want to capture giggling kiddos and mama wiping away a tear, not just fake smiles for the camera. I work hard to bring out the best in everyone with jokes, games and a "directed candid" posing style.
Before becoming a photographer I spent years in customer service because I LOVE connecting with people. My goal is to capture the real love and connection between my subjects. It's the little moments like pinky promises and stolen kisses that tell the story of who you are to each other.
I primarily edit for color, contrast and light. Minor edits such as smoothing skin, removing blemishes and whitening teeth will be made to all of your images, but I believe our imperfections are what make us beautiful & unique.
I recommend booking 1-2 months out for the months of November-May and 3-6 months in advance for the peak season of June-October.
You will receive all retouched digital files in a resolution fit to print up to 8x10, for prints larger than this I will be in touch to ensure top notch color and quality.
I service Telluride, Ouray, Crested Butte and the areas in-between such as Montrose, Grand Junction and Ridgway!
