Photography

I have always loved photography. Looking back, I wanted to be a photographer since I was 7 years old. While I have always loved photography, I haven't been a huge fan of "studio portrait" photography such as the Walmart or Sears studios with photos that are super posed and awkward. I started doing photography back in high school, and did it on an off until I was 19. After a few years of taking a break from photography due to a busy life, I picked up the camera again in May 2020 and started my own side business. I fell in love with taking candid photos and doing lifestyle photography. I absolutely love capturing personalities, emotions and bringing them to life through a photograph.
