I discovered my passion for photography at a very young age, and shortly after graduating high school, I knew I wanted to pursue it further.
To grow both as an artist and a business owner, I graduated from MacEwan University in 2020 with a diploma in Human Resources and a Bachelor of Commerce in Management.
Traveling and capturing moments through my camera has always excited me. I knew early on that I wanted to turn this passion into a career—taking photos and giving people memories they can cherish forever.
Today, I offer a range of photography services, but I specialize in boudoir empowerment sessions, with home-based studios in both the Edmonton and Calgary area. I take on a limited number of weddings and elopements each year, and also photograph families, maternity, kids and couples, and even pets. After photographing over 150 weddings and 1,000+ sessions, my love for photography continues to grow.
My images are true to color, vibrant, and full of life. I’ve always been a lover of color, and I use light and details to highlight my clients’ natural beauty in every photograph. My goal is to create timeless images that feel authentic and genuine—capturing moments exactly as you remember them.
I currently live in Cochrane, AB with my husband, Steven, and our two small dogs, Amber and Atlas. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me outside. I’ve fallen in love with hobbies I share with my husband, like fly fishing, hiking, golfing, and exploring the beautiful scenery the Rocky Mountains have to offer. In the winter, I’ve taken up skiing (though I’ll admit I’m still learning—trying a new sport in your 30s is humbling, but I am learning to appreciate every minute of it!).
More recently, I’ve also rediscovered my love of reading. Curling up with a good book has become one of my favorite ways to slow down, especially thrillers, horror, and romance novels. Traveling to new places, enjoying simple adventures, and getting lost in a good story keep me inspired both personally and creatively.
I pour my heart into every session because it’s important to me that every client feels seen, welcome, and comfortable. Photography has always held a special place in my heart—it’s more than just images; it’s the way we remember life and the people we love. Photos are often what we turn to when words and memory fall short, and that is why creating them for my clients is such an honor.
