All things nostalgic, editorial, film, emotive, honest, cinematic, full of connection and heart and none of the forced bullshit. 🎞️💛

This is about trusting me to step into your world and show you how we can capture your story artfully and in no way cheesy or perfectly posed—together. 🫶🏼

Feb-May books open tomorrow!! (12/8) Sign up for my mailing list for more info!

Oh and a goal of mine for this coming year is definitely to remember to do more BTS videos because I clearly have like two from the last two years that I’ve been using 😂

Beyond honored to have been a part of documenting so many of your stories this year I loved collaborating and creating art from your moments together and am anticipating even more magic in the coming year! ✨

This I know for sure—I’m continually inspired by the art and nostalgia of film, people who value connection over perfection and leaning into editorial inspirations! 💛

I’ll be sharing an update about 2026 bookings later this month, so make sure to sign up for my Client mailing list to stay in the know first! 👏👏👏

(Behind on posting but can’t wait to share more of the work I was able to capture this year soon!)

Here’s to dreaming bigger and pursuing your goals even though you were raised to inherently not trust yourself & stay small. ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼

A very special Super 8 from my time with the Violé family’s all film session and no—I don’t think i’ll ever be over how dreamy and magical this time together was capturing their joy 🫶

can’t believe all that we were able to create together this past year—feeling truly grateful for all the love and support from new friends and old! 🥹

i always take time off at the end the year to reflect and see what is aligning and inspiring me lately and make adjustments to make sure i’m creating from a place of wonder and centered on what feels honest to me. i can already feel a shift coming in the new year and it’s just as exciting as it is nerve racking. change can be hard but growth is always worth it. 🌿

i don’t have everything perfectly figured out and i think it’s fair that most of us don’t but i appreciate the process and as always i will keep you all posted on what’s going on as i know it 🫶

till then, thank you, thank you and love to you all and i can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2024! 💫
