In 2008, my four-legged sidekick, Sammie and I were rolling around in the Florida sunshine practicing with my new camera. A banker by day and an aspiring photographer at night. As a portrait and wedding photography business bloomed, I soon learned that the best kind of photographer I could be- was one who understood my people and gave them the freedom to feel comfortable to shine in their own skin.
Several years later, a cowboy from New Mexico showed up. We met on a Friday, he left that Sunday and everything that happened in between left me in a whirlwind. That was it– I was following love out West.
Moving to Vermejo Park Ranch provided a whole new realm of photography opportunities, from landscape to wildlife photography. Then, after almost a decade, prayers of a dream to start our own ranch operation were answered and carried us to the mountains of Colorado.
That cowboy became my husband and is still the love of my life. We live a beautifully, simple life on a ranch in the mountains with our little (BIG) blessings from God- our daughter and son… the most loved and photographed little peanuts around.
And now, I must say, after dabbling in many different fields of photography… I have found that lifestyle portrait photography is where my soul truly thrives the most.
So whether it’s family photos you desire, a special event that you don’t want to forget and anything in between- I’d love to talk with you and have the honor of documenting these sweet times in your life.
