Hi, friends! I'm so happy you stopped by! I hope you like what you see, and I'd love to learn more about you, but first, a little about me! I'm a native Tennessean, and I currently reside just East of Nashville (east as in just down I-40E, not East Nashville)! I've been married to my husband, Andy, aka Pook, since 2004, and we have 3 children, Grant, Claire & Addie. We thought we were well on our way to raising teenagers and had another baby, so now we're entrenched in toddlers and teens! We love to travel, and I'm usually dreaming about what our next trip might be. I'm one of those people that's depressed if I don't have a trip on the calendar to look forward to! I consider myself an extroverted introvert that loves a party and time with my girlfriends, but also craves alone time..and a good solo shopping trip to actual stores! Just the smell of the mall makes me happy! I'm also passionate about fitness! Though I've loved group fitness for many years, I started CrossFit almost 3 years ago, and I'm obsessed. I'm not the best at it, but the desire to grow and get better (and stronger) every day is what keeps me showing up!! I also really love sweets....so that's the other reason I keep showing up to workout! ha!
There is nothing more rewarding to me than capturing some of the most intimate moments that happen in a person's lifetime. I strive to capture love and real emotion in all situations, whether it be with a newly engaged couple, on a wedding day, cuddling a new baby, or the love of a family! Those moments are what make me feel full! I am reminded by these simple moments that life is good, love is magnificent, and laughter is required!! I want you to remember the feeling you had in those amazing, yet simple moments each and every time you look back at your images. I serve the Middle TN area, but I also have a huge heart for adventure and love traveling whenever possible!
