Today, I have the incredible privilege to tell the love stories of genuine, warm-hearted San Francisco Bay Area couples! With a skillful knowledge of aesthetics and balance, I don’t just take images; I curate them. With an intentional hand, a careful eye, and a passion for guiding my couples instead of stiffly posing them, I fill wedding day galleries with serene images that feel as natural as they are beautiful. And I infuse every single image with meaning.


But more than anything, I value that my couples feel cared for and supported through every step of this thrilling journey. 

When I’m not getting to know new clients or clicking away on a wedding day, you can probably find me out playing fetch with my Golden Retriever, Waffles, cooking cozy meals or snuggling up to watch a movie. And taking quick getaway trips to Disneyland. 

My passion for photography was inspired by my father, a wedding photographer. 

I remember watching him gently guide his couples, bringing out the best in each one of them. I was amazed by the way he captured fleeting moments that seemed to freeze time and told authentic stories with such an expert eye. He eagerly cultivated in me a love for documenting the most special moments in people’s lives. And then one day, my dad handed me a camera of my own. 

Those early years spent with a camera in hand inspired in me a love for photography that only grew as I grew older. Even when I studied graphic design in college, I couldn’t resist freelancing as a photographer on the side. I even dabbled in floral design while continuing to pursue graphic design. Then, in 2017, I finally stopped trying to resist the tug of my camera strap, and I dove headfirst into wedding photography full time!
