Born and raised in middle America, I moved out west in 2000. I fell in love with California and the beautiful landscape. Shortly after arriving, I enrolled in the Art Institutes of California, San Francisco to study graphic design. Although I ended up in the Central Valley, the Bay Area will always hold a special place in my heart. Taking pictures was a hobby that turned into a passion and now I am proud to call it my job. What an amazing thing it is to love your job as much as I do. My family and I live on my husband's walnut, cherry, and almond ranch so many of my pictures happen right here at home. I have two incredible children and lots of animals. Fostering dogs is important to me and over the last 10 years, this ranch has been a transition for many furry friends on their way to their next adventure.

Thank you for allowing me to capture all the special moments in your life.
