I am a private photo editor for professional wedding and portrait photographers. I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. However, after 2 years of teaching I decided to trade in the whiteboard and crayons for a computer and desk. Once, I made the switch I never looked back.
I have always loved everything about the photo industry. There is something so special about being able to capture life's moments and hang on to them forever. But, what I love even more is the joy I have found in giving photographers their lives back. I am passionate about helping photographers, and watching their businesses thrive as they have more time to do what they love most.
When I am not working, you can find me playing with my niece and nephews, adventuring with my friends, enjoying a night in with my handsome husband or spending time with my family.

I love to cook and bake. One of my favorite things to do on my days off, is try new recipes. From yummy pastas, to homemade sushi, to apple crumble bars, no recipe is off limits.

One of my favorite places in the whole world will always and forever be the beach. My family has taken trips to the beach every year since I was born. The sound of the waves, the sand in my toes, and the ocean breeze in my hair is my happy place.

I have seen just about every sitcom ever made. Cheesy tv is my favorite thing to watch. And although most people find it weird, I love to rewatch tv shows over and over again.

One of my all time favorite meals is sub sandwhiches. Specifically subs from Subway! Fun fact: every year I got to pick where to eat for my birthday and from ages 6-13 I picked Subway.

The process is simple. I use Lightroom and smart previews exclusively to edit, and Dropbox to transfer files. I touch each image, versus syncing across the board with a color profile, as the larger companies do. I guarantee a 3-7 business day turn around time.
I match your style and brand. We will work together to find your style preferences, and I am happy to use any presets you might already use, as a base for each image. My goal is to become your very own editing clone.
Lastly, if you're unsure of your style, I will help you create your very own preset giving you images that make your heart sing!
If you have any other questions, or you're ready to get your life back, reach out!
