A little bit about me
Something that speaks to my approach to childcare is that I stay in contact with many families I have worked with. I attend their birthdays, graduations, and sports or extracurricular events. I am honored to have helped raise their children in a way that makes them consider me “part of the family”.
I am a wedding and portrait photographer and spend most of my weekends shooting.
In my free time I can be found outdoors or with a book, frequently both at the same time. I adore live music, shopping, and starting (and sometimes finishing) art projects.
