Picture this: It’s 2014, I’m freshly married, scrolling through my phone looking for photos to frame... except there aren’t any professional ones. I didn’t hire a photographer. Instant regret.
That moment changed everything — it’s why I picked up a camera and never looked back.
Fast forward 7 years and I’ve gone from ER shifts to documenting love stories across Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and beyond. Talk about a career change, right?
Turns out, emergency medicine was actually perfect training for wedding days. When the timeline goes sideways or the weather shifts last minute, I’m calm, grounded, and focused on what matters most: capturing the moments you never want to forget.

When I started my photography business as a stay-at-home mom with our first two daughters, I never imagined it would turn into a full-time career. But it did — and now I’ve brought my husband home from his 9-5, we’re raising three girls on a cozy little acreage, and I co-host a podcast (Cameras and Carseats) to help other mom photographers do the same.
When I’m not third-wheeling it with couples on their wedding day, I’m cozied up in our log cabin homestead — a fixer-upper we’re slowly renovating while raising kids, roasting coffee (my husband’s passion), and wrangling animals (yep, ducks and bunnies included).
We’re the kind of people who choose board game nights over Netflix, hunt for treasures at every thrift store, and always stop if we see a charming small-town Main Street. And if we’re not doing any of that? You’ll probably find us at church playing on the worship team.
