As a fifth generation Texan, I grew up on a piece of land outside of College Station with a family who loved and lived the western way of life. We spent our days in the sunshine swimming, riding four-wheelers and horses and picking dewberries along the side of the road. Every day was an adventure. That experience of adventure something I incorporate into each and every one of my lifestyle sessions. It is my hope that the element of adventure will allow you to tap into that soulshine I'm out to capture!

There is so much that goes into prepping for your photo experience. For starters, we will chat before our session to discuss our goals and location options. I'm available to answer any questions you may have. Click here to check out the Prep Guide.

For more than a 13 years, I have been professionally photographing faces around Austin. You can find my work in Forbes Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Yoga Journal, Texas Monthly, Austin Monthly, MAXIM, Austin Woman Magazine and Luxe Magazine.
