The story of a photographer
Growing up in sunny South Florida, I always wanted to use my moms camera, I think I got on her nerves about it! One day she finally gave up, bought herself a new one, and gave me her old one. That was one of the happiest days I can remember as a kid. My cat, Sonny, was my best model. He would pose laying on the couch, walking in the sunlight, and rolling in the grass. I got some amazing photos of him! As I grew up, I upgraded my cameras, with help from my dad, and of course, updated my amazing model shots of Sonny. Thats how it all started.
Later in life after cosmetology school, I went and took photography classes and thats where I grew my love for film! Ahh, film. Learning the dark room was so cool! I really loved playing with the exposure through the lens, and then manipulating it with the chemicals. Thats when my passion grew to the strongest and I knew "this is exactly what I want to do with my life, lets make it happen."
I then met Mallory Taines with NotSoUsual photography. She took me under her wing and taught me so much more then I ever thought. From photographer assistant, to lead photographer, I will forever be grateful for her, and her beautiful family, for taking me in and teaching me majority of what I know today.
I moved from sunny South Florida to Central Florida and I'm loving my journey. I'v met some pretty spectacular people along the way and can't get enough of it! I absolutely adore my South Florida and Central Florida clients and love watching them grow through my lens. Families, couples, individuals, I do it all and love every minute of it.
