Photography has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my dad rarely went anywhere without his camera, documenting family vacations, sporting events, and everyday moments that later became cherished memories.

Some of my favorite childhood memories are tied to photography - dropping off rolls of film at the mall, sharing a cinnamon pretzel from Auntie Anne’s, and then gathering around the dining room table to sort through photos once they were ready. Those moments taught me early on how powerful photographs can be in preserving stories and bringing people together.

In college, I received my first Canon camera, and that’s when photography truly became my own. After moving to Massachusetts for graduate school, I began exploring New England with my camera in hand. Hiking in the White Mountains, camping in Vermont, and spending summers on Cape Cod gave me endless inspiration and deepened my love for landscape photography.

Wanting to grow and challenge myself, I continued learning through night classes at the New England School of Photography and Boston Photography Workshops. Whether I’m capturing an engagement, a quiet landscape, or moments from my travels, I find so much joy in creating images that feel authentic and meaningful.

Photography allows me to slow down, notice the beauty in the everyday, and preserve moments that might otherwise pass us by. I’m grateful to do what I love and look forward to creating images that tell stories for years to come.
