There is no question that photography sparks a certain fire within me. Some people refer to this sentiment as “food for the soul.” However, I am not a portrait photographer because I love photography – I specialize in portraiture because I love people.

Every person I meet is unique, whether he or she is a grandparent, a parent, a child, or baby. You are unique. I want to be a part of your world if only for as long as our portrait session lasts. I want to help you remember how beautiful your life is, and how little miracles have a magical way of working their ways into your life, by visually documenting these precious moments of your life. You don’t need me to tell you how time goes by in the blink of an eye, and how “it seems like just yesterday when…”

A successful portrait study, whether it be a maternity, a newborn, or a portrait study of a child, requires more than someone who can take pictures. After all, almost anyone can press a button and utter “say cheese” simultaneously. I do not take pictures – I create timeless memories. Memories of those precious yet fleeting moments, permanently captured, to be appreciated forever. Memories of you and your children’s lives. This is where I truly believe that I have been given a gift – the ability to connect with people of all ages; the ability to convey to you that I am someone to whom you can open up and trust. Children love me just as much as I love them – they find me patient, caring, and honest. They quickly realize that I am only here to capture their true emotions, expressions, and feelings – nothing contrived, nothing posed. As well, mothers know right away that I understand where they are coming from. They know, for example, that I understand those tender, quiet moments of love between a mother and her unborn child.

You are never just another client to me. When you choose me to be your and your children’s portrait artist, you have essentially given me the opportunity to study you and your children – what moves you and your children, what makes you and them tick. I take this responsibility very seriously, and I understand what a privilege this is.

I look forward to meeting you and your children!
