My story

Maui is where I found home.

Eleven years ago, I was a small-town girl on the mainland who took a leap and moved to this little island in the Pacific. I never planned to stay forever — and then Maui had other ideas. It’s where I built a life, married my person, and became a mama to a sweet baby girl (with a golden retriever underfoot).

I’m honestly a bit shy — but you wouldn’t know it once I’m behind the camera. That’s where I come alive. I’m a little obsessed with love stories: the beginnings, the growing families, and all the sweet, messy, in-between moments most people forget to photograph.

So let me capture you — all of you. The person you want to spend the rest of your life with, and the family you’re becoming. That’s the whole reason I do this.
