I am a Greenville native with many interests. I homeschool my kids, I love to read, I am obsessed with the enneagram, and I am a hobbyist photographer. I am a Click Pro Elite which means I had to submit a portfolio and be accepted into a prestigious group of women photographers. I am a Click Community Mentor which means I help encourage other artists out there, like me; women who love creating art. This page has changed many times over the years and I can’t guarantee it will ever be anything other than that.
My photography style has evolved over the years. My inability to commit to one specific genre can sometimes feel like a strength and a weakness. The overall thread throughout all of my work is that I want to capture the reality of what is and leave behind anything that feels forced. There is a beautiful messiness of storytelling that draws me to it, this display of both the light and shadows that exist within us. I think the contrast I try to present in my photos is a metaphor for the contrast that we struggle with as people in this world which celebrates perfection. I want my photography to demonstrate that there is space for all of it, both the beauty and the imperfection, to exist.

I’ve always found style and fashion to be interesting. I spent years watching America’s Next Top Model and Project Runway, admiring the way the industry seems to mesh both art and style. It hasn’t been until the past few years that I have realized the cost of high fashion and the quest for always looking new and different. As I have learned more about the waste the industry creates, I am dedicated my time to discovering brands that operate in a sustainable and ethical way. As a blogger and stylist, I want to spread awareness about how we can change our buying habits and create change in the world. My main focus is to reduce our consumption and use our money to support businesses dedicated to sustainable style.
