I am a Missouri wedding and maternity photographer based outside of Kansas City. I've been photographing weddings and engagements since 2014! When I was younger, I thought I wanted to be a wedding planner. I'd say that I found a career that is right along those lines! I'm the oldest in my family, so I'm used to being bossy and getting things done. HA! But seriously, I can thrive in fast paced environments and look forward to the beautiful organized chaos that weddings bring!
I won't tell you that I've always wanted to be a photographer, because that's not true! I have, however, been interested in photography since a young age. While I never attended school for photography (I actually have a bachelors in Sociology with a minor in Social Work!), I did participate in our local 4-H doing photography and going to the state fair with a few entries! (Before you laugh, this was a BIG deal as a kid!)
I discovered a love for weddings while in college. When I graduated, Seth encouraged me to pursue my dream of becoming a wedding photographer and well...here we are! Almost a decade later, over a hundred weddings later, I'm living exactly what I dreamt of all those years ago! I'm a wife, mother, Christ follower, boss lady, dreamer, planner, adventurist, and I can't wait to get to know you better!
