“I fell in love with photography on my first photo shoot with my sister back in 2010, and I haven’t stopped chasing moments of magic since. I’m obsessed with the ocean, whales, and stingrays— basically, anything water—and my heart beats a little faster under the auroras or when I’m soaking in the light of the sun and moon (a total Cancer thing, I know). I live for love, adventure, and connection, and I share my life with my adventure partner Ryan and our two pups, Lenny and Taya.”
