About Me  


"Sometimes I do get to places just when God's ready to have somebody click the shutter."  ~ Ansel Adams
As long as I can remember I've been passionate about photography and nurtured a desire to see life and the world around me through the perspective of a camera lens. I find joy and inspiration in bringing forth the beauty and uniqueness of my subjects, as well as the remarkable splendor of life and the natural beauty that surrounds us.

I studied and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Brigham Young University, Provo, UT back in 1993. Since then I've worked with many wonderful and talented photographers and photo licensing firms to further develop and hone my craft. As my experience deepened, my passion, expertise, and love of photography have also increased. I am grateful that God has blessed me with this talent and that I can share my enthusiasm to bring joy and happiness to others while creating memorable and beautiful memories in their lives.
Growing up in Arizona, Southern California, Virginia, Florida, and Utah, and now residing in the beautiful Santa Clarita Valley in Southern California afforded me the visual inspiration and aspirations to be a professional photographer. I am the blessed mother of a beautiful daughter, married to an entrepreneur/university professor who is both left and right brained and humorous (thankfully!), and entertained daily by two male cats.

I look forward to creatively bringing your ideas to life and capturing those special moments through unique and distinctive photographs that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for the opportunity,
