Pittsburgh mom, natural light chaser, and the photographer who sees the eye, not the face.

 

​

I’m drawn to the quiet story in someone’s gaze—the spark of who they really are, beyond a smile or a pose. That’s my signature: capturing the essence, the emotional depth, the real you in this exact season of life. No stiff setups, no chasing perfection—just fresh, genuine portraits full of personality that feel like “that’s exactly who they were right now.”

​

As a proud Yinzer, I love using our city’s natural beauty—Mellon Park’s roses, Hartwood Acres’ golden fields, hidden trails, or local parks that feel like home—to create images that breathe. I specialize in senior portraits that celebrate bold transitions, newborn and milestone moments full of softness and wonder, family sessions that hold the beautiful chaos, and personal branding that shows the heart behind your work.

​

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me adventuring outdoors with my husband Jeff and our daughter Lilly Grace—hiking, exploring, soaking up the same light I chase for sessions. Watching high schoolers grow from babies to bold young adults is close to my heart (LG keeps me grounded and laughing every day).

​

Most of my clients come through personal referrals (about 90%), and that means the world to me. It’s built on trust, real connection, and showing up with heart every time. I also donate time and talent to causes that matter in our community because giving back feels like part of the story too.

​

Bring your quirks, your chaos, your quiet confidence, your whole selves. I’ll meet you with warmth, a little guidance, and zero pressure. Together, we’ll create portraits that don’t just show what you looked like—they show who you are.
