Welcome to my little corner of the world! I live on a charming ranch in northeast Wyoming, right near the stunning Devils Tower. I’m excited to offer photography packages that let you enjoy this beautiful spot for your photo sessions. My husband, Clayton, and I are the proud parents of three wonderful kids!
I love working on the ranch alongside my husband! There’s a unique joy in our daily activities, whether we’re tending to the animals or managing the land. One of my favorite things is watching our kids participate in rodeo events. Their excitement and determination are contagious and seeing them showcase their skills in the arena fills me with pride. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of watching them engage in something they are so passionate about, especially alongside their father.
Before I embraced the joys of being a stay-at-home mom, I spent nine amazing years teaching first grade. Photography has always been a passion of mine; I even won my very first photography contest in fourth grade! I feel so fortunate to combine two things I love most: working with children and capturing beautiful moments.
I can’t wait to meet you and your family and create some unforgettable memories together!
