My Why…
As a sister-in-arms, I understand the sacrifices and struggles that come with being away from a loved one. This is a huge reason why I am dedicated to capturing the special moments that bring your family together and celebrate your military service; Whether, it's the first embrace after a long wait with your Sailor or Marine holding their newborn for the first time, studio portraits, ceremonies, graduations, or funerals; I am here to preserve your legacy for multiple lifetimes.
My goal is to help you feel at ease and fully enjoy the moment, knowing that I am capturing every detail to tell your unique story through photojournalism and promptography. From officer commissioning to change of command ceremonies, last flights to graduations or promotions, - even during funerals - I am here to capture your family's memories with passion and dedication.
Please note: While I am not contracted by the military, I am a veteran and hold a military ID for base access. By hiring me prior to your event, I am your guest, capturing your family's memories for personal use only.

When you purchase something from an artist, you are not just buying a photo or service. You are buying years of mistakes, experiments, errors, and success all wrapped up into a moment in time. You are buying a piece of their story, their success, even their soul.
