My 5 words about my work
*Timeless
*Modern
*Warm
*Delicate
*Simple

Things people have said about my work:
Beautiful, artistic, tasteful, moody, clean

What’s most important to me:
My clients!! I am very passionate about my clients, and I personalize each session/event to my wonderful client/clients!

What’s cool about me:

My husband and I have six kids!!! 1 boy, and 5 little girls…Or maybe that is a bit crazy!

Favorite time of day:

When all of the kids are in bed, and I can get down to work (in complete and utter silence!)

Favorite restaurant:

I have many favourites! I really like Milestones!

What I do to get inspired:

Look through magazines, blogstalk, walk around, take a drive. Watch cool movies, with amazing colour and cinematography! Think Moulin Rouge.

I also have old classic masters to look to for inspiration such as Matisse, Van Gogh and Chagall.

What I do for fun:

Spend time with my family, head out to coffee with other fun photographers.

Non camera stuff in my camera bag right now:

A pack of gum, a Starbucks gift card and lip gloss.

Interesting Fact:

I am left handed, and now I have broken one finger on my right hand twice, in two different places. Most recently I sliced another finger (middle finger, right hand) while opening a tuna can! Needless to say, I haven’t made a casserole since!

Wishlist:

A couple more lenses, a hip slip, a new flash and a new laptop! (mac of course!)

What I want to shoot:

More boudoir (in interesting places!) and some fabulous weddings! Also, I would love to shoot a trash the dress or ten! I had a great idea today, and if you are interested and want to do something out of the ordinary, extraordinary! Please give me a call.
