Wife, mother, and Wedding Photographer
The end of this season marks a day shaped by endless dreams, thoughtful planning, and imagery as intentional as your love. These will be the first heirlooms you’ll call your own. That’s why I take the time to truly know you as a couple. With a heart for love stories, my work goes far beyond documenting a wedding—I recognize the lifelong significance of marriage and can’t wait to cheer yours on for years to come.

Time with my family is everything, & travel has my heart. Whether we’re hopping in the car or boarding a flight, new adventures never lose their magic.
Motherhood is my greatest blessing. Four beautiful children—Riley, Harper, Myles, and Sutton—call me Momma (plus our sweet pup, Scout!).
I believe in joy-filled marriage—the kind you dreamed of as a child. My husband and I are living that dream, building a life together.
Originally from Virginia, I’ve called Nashville home for twelve years. My background is in digital marketing and video production, where I had the privilege of working with artists like Luke Combs and Old Dominion, and brands like iHeartRadio and the Academy of Country Music. But after welcoming our third child, I felt a clear calling from God to step into something deeper—using my gifts to tell love stories through photography.
I believe in the kind of love our grandparents modeled—deep, enduring, and full of meaning. Preserving those moments for you to look back on for generations is not just my passion, it’s my purpose.
As a wife to my husband, Atom, and mom to four beautiful kids, I understand how quickly time passes—and how important it is to capture the legacy you're building. Being a Nashville wedding photographer is one of my greatest honors, and it all begins with a heart to serve couples and their families well.
