I'm a Catholic wedding photographer based in Pittsburgh, traveling wherever love and adventure takes me. I’m a chaser of all things good, true, and beautiful — whether that’s a mountain sunset, a gorgeous cathedral, a wonderful book, or the joy-filled moments of a wedding day.
I'm a realistic idealist, messy perfectionist, extroverted introvert, and spontaneous planner, but above all, I’m someone who cares deeply about making people feel truly seen, known, and loved.
My love for photography started before I could spell the word "entrepreneur" — running pretend businesses from my living room and sneaking my mom’s camera to document life around me. I bought my first (hot pink!) camera at eleven, photographed my first wedding at seventeen, and knew immediately that I was made for this. But God had more plans for me, including earning a Theology degree at Franciscan University of Steubenville, which deepened my love and appreciation for the Catholic Faith and for truth, goodness, and beauty - all of which inspire my work today.
Fast forward to today, and I’ve photographed over 200 weddings in the past 13 years — but every wedding still brings me the same awe and wonder I felt at that very first one. Because to me, this is more than a job — it’s a calling.

Although I’m located in the Ohio River Valley (close to Pittsburgh), traveling is one of my other passions and I have been blessed to have been to 18 different countries and 40 states. But my travel bucket list is still quite long and I am always up for a new adventure so I will happily travel pretty much anywhere to tell your story!
The winding streets, canals around every corner, dozens of bridges, gondolas, and unique architecture in Venice are so beautiful!

I have been so blessed to have been able to walk this 500 mile pilgrimage across Northern Spain twice, first in 2018 and again in 2023. The most life-changing experience both times!

I've been to Rome three times now, twice in 2016 when I studied abroad in Austria, and most recently in 2023!

In 2014, I spent the summer in Ecuador on a mission trip / Spanish immersion program (sadly the Spanish has disappeared from my brain. Ecuador is such a beautiful country & culture!

Growing up on the East Coast, the West has always seemed so magical to me, and it was a dream to get to visit WY, ID, and MT a few years back when I had a wedding in Cody, WY.

In the Fall of 2016 I studied abroad at FUS' Austrian Campus in Gaming, Austria. Those four months were filled with countless memories and adventures!
