My passion for photography is fueled by a passion for the environment. From a young age, I was brought up in a family that revered nature. Vacations were spent outdoors in National Parks, and always in tents. Years later, my love of the natural world around me has become my favorite muse to document. I have degrees in both Fisheries and Wildlife and Photojournalism, but I think my true asset as an artist is curiosity. Spending the twilight hours outside with my camera is when I feel most creative. I currently live in Columbia, MO with my humorous husband and two wild children. When I’m not exploring the woods with my macro lens, I’m photographing people saying “I do” with Wildflower Wedding Photography.
