"I love the everydayness of life because there’s no staging; it’s just simple. It is what it is. Everyday life brings the unexpected, in brings boredom, spontaneity, beauty, tension, sadness, laughter, connection..."

My roots are Iowan, rural Iowan mostly. I live in a little home in the country and well, it’s basically the dream. I’m married to my very own rugged, hard working, country boy, Sam. Together we have the sweetest, curly red-headed babe, Lila. I’ve had my photography studio in Riverside since 2009 and have been photographing families from the Iowa City, Cedar Rapids, Kalona and Washington areas since, as well as Illinois, Missouri, Wisconsin and Nebraska from time to time. Through my lens I’ve watched family after family begin and grow. It’s always been my vision for family photos to capture connection, love and to HAVE FUN! The goal then is to provide you with photos that take you back in time to that silly or perhaps screaming toddler or that snuggly or busy baby, maybe even that snarky teenager. I’m here for it all. I’ve tried other professions in my years and nothing fulfills me like being able to be a small part of these special families lives if only for a moment or two in time.
