About the Photographer:
I’m a photographer on the Mississippi Gulf Coast with a Bachelor of Fine Arts education from the Maine College of Art and Weber State University. I grew up in a small town in Central Maine, resided in northern Utah from 2017-2022, and have recently moved down south. Being behind the camera has been a part of my life for the past decade, growing from my interest as a young teenager to now an adult in her late-twenties. I grew up with photographs integrated into my life as a way of creating an archive of family history and memory for a long line of generations. These photographs proved their inherent importance as crucial family members were lost and life just changed. In my journey as a military spouse, photos have proven to be an aid in keeping what matters most close to you. I deeply empathize and understand what my clients need from me because of experiences like this. In my business as a whole, I take pride in being able to provide a reminder of the special moments you’ve collected in your life.
