About

Austin, Tx native...humanist, foodie, and dog loving photographer. I love the creative process and while I am a natural organizer and director, I also allow room for the project to live and breathe for itself. Usually the best shots come from the “in betweens”. When collaborating with my clients, models, and make-up artists, I feel it is my job to translate everyone’s vision to create the desired images, with the result being more than the sum of the parts.

Being a “humanist” to me is about bringing out the natural beauty and character of the people in my pictures. I, myself, feel very awkward in front of the camera so I have a lot of respect, compassion, and awe for those who love it, or are just willing to brave the process.

While people are my favorite subjects, I always have my camera in hand when road trippin’ with my husband and our super model dog, River. Heading north and west on an open two lane highway, with Hermanos Gutiérrez, Alt-J, or the Mermen providing the soundtrack to our journey, that is my happy place.

I am particularly drawn to rocks, (mountain, boulders, stones, pebbles)…maybe it’s a Virgo thing, but I just love the patterns and beauty of the earth….and it’s edible bounty!
