  • Behind The Lens

    I know it is hard to get to know someone over the internet, but let me tell you a little bit about who I am and what I do. I am a storyteller.

    I tell stories of love, life and laughter through my images. I live and breathe to capture moments in my life and yours that will stand still forever. A look. A smile. A feeling. I am not the typical posey photographer, so if that's your thing, then I may not be the right fit for you. Where my passion lies, is getting that moment. The moment you weren't aware of my camera, and your truth and beauty come out naturally. Where you look at that image and think to yourself, "wow, she really got the real us". And why not make you look fabulous at the same time. ;)

    Each story is unique. So each shoot is unique. My work is not about me as much as it is about you so please tell me your story when you contact me. I love it!

    My goal is simple. To provide you with beautiful images, give you a great experience, make you look fabulous and have fun! However, my favorite part is making friends in the process!

    Feel free to contact me, check out my FAQ'S, and take a peak at my website. Hope to hear from you!

Codey, Trevor and Bobby – Senior Session

It’s no secret I LOVE senior class photo sessions. However, it seems to be 90% girls. So when I finally got the chance to shoot 3 guys, I was so excited. Especially these 3 handsome guys. I graduated from Royal HIgh School in 2000, so I have a love for anyone in green and gold. And lucky for me, these guys were not only super fun, but had school spirit through their veins. Codey, Bobby and Trevor decided o combine their shoots so they could get some shots together. They are best friends and team mates. So it was extra special.

Thanks guys, it was fun!

MADI HARRIS SENIOR SESSION – VENTURA COUNTY SENIOR SESSION PHOTOGRAPHER

If I haven’t already said it enough, I LOVE senior sessions. It is one of  the most exciting times in their lives as high school is ending, and a whole new world is at their fingertips. I swear it feels like just yesterday I was there too!

Madi is seriously an amazing young woman. She is a great student, amazing dancer, is beautiful, and has a heart of gold!

I had so much fun with her! Good luck Madi at USC and I can’t wait to see you again when we do your family photos!

BRADY AND SHANNON – VENTURA COUNTY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Some sessions just go so smoothly, so perfectly that you feel like it must have been a dream. This session was one of those days. I just love Shannon and have been documenting moments in her and Shawn’s lives for the past few years now. So getting to watch Brady grow is such an honor! He is such a sweet boy with an old soul. I just love these photos of him and his momma relaxing and spending mother/son time together!

THE JENKINS FAMILY – SIMI VALLEY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

The weather had not been my friend. In fact, I was pretty much in a big girl fight with it. I had scheduled a session with The Jenkins twice before and had to cancel due to the insane winds. So when our third attempt was canceled due to rain, I thought it was playing a joke on me. Thankfully I was able to squeeze them in the day before the downpour, and as usual, everything happens for a reason!

This shoot was so simple and breezy and was everything I had hoped for! Hopefully the same goes for them. :)

Katie and Matt you guys were so sweet and watching you with your girls is amazing. You make being the parents to two twin one years look like a piece of cake! I had a blast and hope to document your perfect family of four in the future again! Have a great day!
