I love portraits – both in natural environments and in the studio – and I have a soft spot for nature photography too. There’s something grounding in watching light hit a quiet forest or someone’s face in the exact same way. Both remind me that beauty isn’t something we need to invent – it’s already there. You just have to see it. I also love that moment when someone says, “I’m not good in photos,” and ends up with images they actually want to show to someone other than their mom. I’m not chasing perfection. I’m after something real – a crooked smile, a quietly tired gaze, or that fleeting second when someone forgets they’re being photographed and just is. I’m not interested in roles or polished poses. I want presence. Working in a small town means I wear a lot of hats. Some days I’m also a therapist, a calm voice in the middle of wedding mayhem, a last-minute wardrobe fixer or even a one-woman print shop. In the midst of it all, I catch those honest moments – the ones that feel more like memories than photos. My superpower is sensing what people are feeling – sometimes before they do. I don’t push people into pictures. I meet them where they already are. That’s why my portraits don’t just look like people – they feel like them. If life were a photo, I wouldn’t use filters. I’d fix the white balance, find good light, and put the human in the center. That’s enough.
