About Me

I am a city girl turned country girl turned city girl. I was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. My passion for photography began in a darkroom in high school. 22 years later and it’s still the same, I love being able to freeze moments in time. It is just the coolest thing.

In 2003 my husband and I packed up our family and moved to a small town in Central Illinois. It was there that my romance with all things gardening and in the kitchen sprouted. I like taking simple, fresh ingredients and creating really delicious food for my family and friends. 

In 2018 we had the opportunity to move back to St. Louis, and we took it…life is always an adventure! These day, when I am not running from one activity to the other with my 3 boys, you’ll find me in the kitchen, tooling around outside, or behind my camera. 

Simply put, I love creating beautiful things that make people happy.
