Most Saturdays, I photograph weddings. The rest of the time you can find me balancing working from home and snuggling my daughter. As a wife and mama, it was important to me to find balance between having a thriving business and living the life I truly wanted. For me, this looks like being present and spending a ton with my family while still bringing in a sustainable income for my family (& more!).
I have always been a community over competition type of gal. I am passionate about helping other photographers create and scale their own businesses in a way that makes your heart happy outside of business.
Before I was a photographer, I worked in sales for Marriott. Through photography, I found my love of marketing. I could talk about marketing ALL.DAY.LONG. When I started coaching photographers, I wanted to do it all, teach everything I knew. Eventually I decided organic marketing was where my heart was at and what I really wanted to share non-stop.
