my approach
Life is layered—beautiful, complicated, chaotic, holy. The best photographs honor all of it. I’m drawn to the unscripted: subtle glances, unfiltered joy, the messy tenderness that can’t be staged. My work is for people who want their real story documented with honesty, warmth, and ease.
I create space for you to relax, connect, and be yourselves. If you need a gentle nudge or a bit of direction, I’ll guide quietly from the sidelines—never interrupting the moment, always supporting it. And yes, I fully understand the awkward “what do I do with my hands?” feeling. I’ve been there, too.
My love for documentary photography began in 2008, when I was living in Amsterdam as a nanny and started photographing the family I cared for. I was captivated by the rhythm of their everyday life—the way connection reveals itself in tiny, unrepeatable moments. I never stopped.
I’m an empathetic, egalitarian photographer for people celebrating both the big milestones and the quiet, everyday transitions of love. I love working with folks who aren’t afraid to let me into sacred spaces—your home, your rhythms, your real life. I’m a lover of shadows and soft light, unbothered by chaos or children, and endlessly curious about overlooked beauty—flowers in an alley, dust sparkling in sunlight, the way someone softens when they’re seen.
My eye is always searching for the good and the true—anything that deserves a place in your time capsule. My hope is that your photographs grow more meaningful with every passing year, becoming the kind of images that take you right back to the heartbeat of this season.
My Approach
I work slowly. I listen. I watch. I wait for what’s real.
I don’t over-direct. I don’t rush moments.
I create a space that feels safe enough for truth to rise.
Most of my sessions feel more like:
• a walk
• a conversation
• a shared quiet
• a remembering
Not just a photoshoot.
I want you to recognize yourself in the images.
Not a version of yourself you tried to be —
but the version you actually are.
This is for you if:
• You want images that feel like home
• You crave realness over perfection
• You feel deeply and openly
• You value memory and meaning
• You want photographs that will matter in 50 years
This is not for you if:
• You want heavily styled, rigid posing
• You’re chasing trends over truth
• You want fast, transactional images
• You’re uncomfortable being genuinely seen
The Experience
I want to know:
• what matters to you
• what season you’re in
• who you’re holding
• what you’re afraid of losing
• what you’re celebrating
• what you want to remember
Then we meet in a space that feels like you.
In-home. In nature. At your favorite place. At mine
You don’t bring performance.
You bring yourself.
I’ll take care of the rest.
What I Photograph
I specialize in intimate, honest, deeply human imagery.
The kind that feels like a memory when you look back at it.
• Lovers & partners
• Families & chosen families
• Motherhood & fatherhood
• Friendships & community
• Quiet self-portrait sessions
• Milestones, gatherings, ordinary days
You don’t need a big moment to be photographed.
You just need to be here.
