My career started with documentary-style photography and even today, this natural genre is still a great part of my creative journey. In 2009 I photographed my very first wedding in Saskatchewan. Back then I didn't have even one bridal image in my portfolio, but nevertheless my first wedding couple trusted me to document their special day and I am forever grateful for that.
This first wedding was a kick-start to a new career path that I am still proudly on. Since then I have photographed more than 170 couples all over the world. From the Rocky Mountains of Alberta to the countryside of Saskatchewan and Manitoba, Las Vegas, Calgary, Kenosee Lake, Edmonton, Regina, Canmore, Saskatoon & Winnipeg, I have travelled to so many different corners of our planet, always with one goal in mind - document love in the most artful & thoughtful way.
When I’m not behind my camera you can find me a wearing graphic tees, kimonos & kitten heels (to make me taller) while avoiding laundry and re-writing my to-do list. If you ask me, I will tell you the story about how I ended up living in my hometown after a decade in the big city. My favourite color is any shade of green and my best friend and I started as penpals at age 9. My husband and I designed and built our dream home…took 11 months and our marriage survived it. I’m known for finding an excuse to have ice cream with my three outgoing kids almost every day. I'm all about new adventures...summer boat rides, hiking unknown trails and winter sledding. I'm always planning a date night to the movies or painting mixed media art while watching Netflix.
I love the smell of the mountains and the wide open spaces of the prairies. You can find me living-it-up in small town Saskatchewan with one husband, two red heads, a brunette with glasses and an adopted dog name Piper.
I’m starting my 8th season as a professional photographer and this job at times feels like a DREAM! My goal in life is to help people see the best in themselves and capture it.
I just wanted to say THANK YOU for stopping by and taking a peek at my passion, high five if you’ve read this far and I hope we get to meet real soon!
I love all things adventure, West coast vibes and refuse to settle for a mediocre life!
