I picked up a camera in July 2017, determined to document my kids’ childhood with a realistic, lifestyle approach. Who would have guessed that day could blossom into such an amazing career capturing memories for so many families?

As a photographer based out of Southern IL (O'Fallon/Scott Air Force Base area), I’m proud to serve families in all of the Greater St. Louis Metropolitan Area and the Metro East. I specialize in snappin' birth, babies, & families and would love the opportunity to capture some truly timeless memories of your crew!

Documenting my clients’ journeys through motherhood has brought me so much joy. From pregnancy through childhood, and every milestone in between, it makes my mama heart so happy to watch them start families and continue to grow.

I've had the honor of documenting memories for hundreds of families since my photography journey began about five years ago. To say I feel incredibly blessed to get to work with such wonderful humans (big & small) each day is an understatement!

I have a deep passion for all things pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I am a huge advocate for women's birthing rights and am happy to offer an extensive list of referrals for my clients to utilize during their pregnancies and postpartum.

You can check out this list here to learn more about my favorite doulas, midwives, chiropractors, and more!

I love helping mamas embrace their changing bodies during pregnancy and the fourth trimester. Those baby bumps (and squishy bellies after birth) are some of my most favorite things to capture. Our bodies are so strong, capable, and inspiring - they deserve to be celebrated. Being able to provide beautiful, raw photos of such an intimate season of a woman's life brings me so much joy!

Being invited into the birth space is a true honor to me. I have been called to birth work for years -- after the birth of my daughter 11 year ago, I began researching birth trauma and learning more and more about physiologic birth. I learned about the necessity of advocacy for birthing women and their rights, and the importance of education and empowerment surrounding pregnancy and birth. I hope we soon experience a shift in the way society views birth, and I hope to play a role in that shift! Removing the fear and replacing it with wisdom and empowerment, I know we can do it!

This passion deepened once I became a birth photographer and continues to grow with every birth space I step into. I plan to shift my focus later down the road to a future in midwifery, but for now snappin' these precious babes' entrances will do!
