Capturing West Virginia's Best Moments

Golden-hour family sessions, senior portraits in the fields, mountain weddings and brand-new babies — photographed slowly and honestly, so the feeling lasts longer than the pose.

Portfolio

A little of everything I love to photograph

Weddings in the hills, seniors in open fields, families at golden hour, and the very first days of a new baby.

About

Hi, I'm the one behind the camera

I grew up chasing fireflies in these hills, and I've been photographing the people who love them ever since. My work is quiet, warm and a little untidy — I'd rather catch a laugh mid-breath than a perfect pose.

Most sessions happen in a favorite field, on your family's land, or up on a ridgeline we hike to together. Come as you are; I'll take care of the light.

Kind Words

What families say afterward

Sample reviews for this demo design

“You barely notice she's there — and then the gallery arrives and you're crying in the kitchen. Every look, every laugh, all of it.”

Hannah & Luke M.

Mountain wedding, Pine Hollow

“Our kids will not sit still for anything. She somehow turned our chaos into the photos we'll hang on the wall for the next twenty years.”

The Calvert Family

Golden-hour family session

“I was so nervous about being in front of a camera. She made it feel like hanging out with a friend in a field — and they're the best photos I've ever had taken.”

Maddie R.
