About the Photographer 

I have a passion for many things in this life, from family to the outdoors, and love exploring the world with my camera slung around my neck.

I am lucky to live in beautiful Portland, Oregon. close to the mountains, water and lush wilderness. I live with my husband, cat and cockatiels that constantly keep me entertained and force me to
keep a good sense of humor.

My earliest experiences with photography began with my 110-point and shoot at six-years-old. Later, I graduated from the University of Montana with a much more sophisticated camera and a bachelor’s degree in photojournalism and have since worked with several newspapers, magazines and niche publications. My work has received awards from National Press Photographer’s Association and Society of Professional Journalists.

I enjoy capturing the real moments of life through my lens and celebrating the many challenges that life often presents.
