a girl and her camera

my photography has been an outward manifestation of an inward journey. the journey to be seen fresh and anew as the rising sun of each day. glowing in brilliance, with the past behind me, and the excitement of a future unknown. we all long to be seen through the lens of another that won’t judge us, but accept us for the vision and beauty that we possess, right here, right now. with every image, we carry the power to make the ordinary extraordinary, and breathe new life into that which otherwise may be overlooked.


i thank God for the unique opportunity to change the world around me by showing you the world that i see. my vision is an instrument of change, memorializing the precious details in life for all times. just like every image has angles that abound, each different from the rest, so too do people have many sides to them, unique in their own right. may all of our eyes be open enough to also see their beauty.

Tammy & Billy - the journey begins




I consider it an honor and joy to photograph the journey of one of my dearest friends and soror, Tammy, as she prepares to have her first baby in September. Tammy and I have become very close over the last few years and she is so very dear to me. Her and Billy were kind enough to let my creativity fly at the Laumeier Sculpture Park in St. Louis - they were great sports, and we had a good time.

Tammy has never seen me "work" as she put it, so she spent the first part of the session laughing and trying to be serious. She's a nut! =)

I look forward to capturing the first images of the newest member of their family!!
