Capturing joy with light

Hello

As an artist I focus on capturing the emotion of people when they are the most themselves. Not rattled in thought, but in their essence. I am a portrait, lifestyle photographer. I am also a spiritual wellness coach that focuses on meditation, mindfulness and yoga practices. In my spare time, I love to dance salsa & bachata on a dancefloor, or in the park with my dog Meenu.

My Story

I draw inspiration from nature in my shoots.

I believe we are all a branch connected to the tree of life and so I do my best to harmonize them in all my shots.

I believe our bodies tell the story of our hearts and souls. and I have the gift of capturing their messages.

I fell in love with photography after seeing peoples reactions seeing themselves in their beautiful, authentic truth and joy in my photographs. It fills me to see people love themselves through what my lens captures.

I want you to walk away from your session with me having fallen more in love with yourself, your loved ones or someone special.

I moved back to KC in 2022 after 10 years of exploring major cities like Seattle, and living in large states like California working in Corporate America to pursue my creative purpose. I enjoy exploring different ways to tell a story through photograph. It makes me feel alive and purposeful to be a storyteller through visual art.

A Unifying Force

Experience KC's coffee culture through the lens of love and community. Discover what makes these coffee shops unique, inviting, and safe through stunning photography.

In this showcase, we highlight four distinct coffee shops that embody community and connection through the love of coffee. Each shop expresses love in its own way, bringing people of all backgrounds together in a place where they feel safe, accepted, and seen.

As someone who lived in Seattle for over five years, I fell in love with coffee shop culture. I observed the different energies that entered these spaces - nervous first dates, old friends catching up, and difficult conversations needing a neutral space.

Coffee shops have the power to unite people from all walks of life, beliefs, and nationalities. With the country being so divided, I sought to find something that the majority of people can agree on - the love for this drink and where we get to enjoy it.

Join me on June 2nd, 2023, as I unveil my work and bring that energy to life through photography.
