Summary

I tell stories through light, texture, and tiny details—whether it’s the quiet beauty of a newborn’s first days, or the vibrant energy of a personal brand coming to life. As a photographer and visual artist, I create space for people to feel seen and celebrated. My work is fueled by intuition, connection, and a deep love for crafting images that resonate long after the shutter clicks. I built my website, run my social media, and tailor every session to meet my clients' unique needs. From styling to editing, every part of the process is hands-on, heartfelt, and intentionally designed.
