It Began as a Dream and Became My Everything
βHow a Grecian holiday and a camera changed the course of my lifeβ
. . .And Led Me To Yours
Let me take you back. . .
Freshly graduated and full of dreams,
I embarked on β a seventeen-day escape to the Greek Islands, my very own Mamma Mia reverie. Every detail had been imagined: the flowing dresses that caught the breeze, the sun-soaked itinerary, and the flavors of a life I longed to taste. The night before I departed, I bought myself a camera β a silent companion for the journey ahead.
What began as a simple act of documentation soon became a love affair with the moment itself. I found myself enchanted by the beauty in the stray cats basking in golden sunlight, by strangers twirling beneath a fading sunset with glasses of sangria raised, in the quiet stillness of a hidden cafΓ© at dawn. I wandered the ancient streets and windswept shores, directing impromptu portraits with newfound friends, eager to capture the poetry of life unfolding, the intimate whispers between each fleeting scene.
In those magical days, I realized something profound: I wasnβt just preserving memories for myself β I was telling the stories of the souls around me. Honoring their beauty, their joy, their love. That revelation ignited a fire deeply within, one that would lead me from corporate life into the luminous world of photography.
After two years caught between the noise of corporate life and the quiet pull of my camera,in 2021 I was able to embrace photography as my full-time vocation. Dedicating myself to capturing love with all its depth and light. Since then, I have had the honor of weaving love stories for the most extraordinary couples β crafting imagery that is not only timeless but deeply felt, an artful celebration of connection, emotion, and grace. This is more than a profession; it is my calling. . .
My passion,
My Forever.

My Philosophy
Art is what remains when the moment has passed, the heartβs eternal memory.
When you invite me into your story, you welcome more than a photographer β you invite a witness who carries your love in her whole heart.

Turning My Own Elopement Into Art. . .
We didnβt follow the rulebookβjust our hearts. One quiet morning, over coffee and soft laughter, Tim looked at me with that familiar, knowing smile and simply asked, βWanna get married?β Without a pause, without a second thought, I answered, βAbsolutely.β There was no grand production, no audience, no timeline to follow. Just two people, deeply in love, choosing forever in the most spontaneous, thrilling, and joy-filled way. And it was perfectβbecause it was us. From the very beginning, I knew Tim was my personβthe one Iβd walk with through every season, in every city, and every chapter of life.
Weβve always dreamed of eloping in Europe, of promising forever on cobblestone streets or beneath the Mediterranean sun. But before that dream unfolds, we chose to seal our forever here, in the quiet simplicity of a moment that was just ours. This day was the best of my lifeβnot because it looked like anyone elseβs love story, but because it was wholly, unapologetically ours. Hereβs to writing your own love story, finding your person, and celebrating it in the way that feels most true to you.
