Have Camera Will Travel
New York City has been on my list of dream travel plans for over 10 years, and this trip did not disappoint. After putting it off for so long (the pandemic didn’t help, ha!) we turned daydreams into reality. I literally had the best night of my life, got to eat so much good food, and had the “You’ve Got Mail” soundtrack on repeat in my head for our handful of days in the Big Apple. I can’t wait to share highlights of my dreamy first trip to NYC with you all!
My first time in San Diego did not disappoint. You really can’t beat this city, and there’s a reason it’s so beloved by locals and tourists alike! I sure hope to return- and in the next few years, if I can manage it.
Engagement photos for friends is the best- because we just get to hang out in amazing light and be silly together. ;) This engagement shoot was no exception! Michelle and Matt are some of the best people I know, and their partnership is delightful. I can’t wait for their November wedding in West Des Moines this fall!
Meet Brittany and Hans! Two adventurous lovebirds that love travel (and their home in SoCal!). It was a joy to meet them & photograph them during this trip, and I hope we meet again!
The dream of visiting Greece came about in high school, when I watched the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (and later, Mamma Mia) for the first time with my three best friends at the age of 16. The four of us talked about traveling together, but with two of them married, and us all working full time, crazy opposite schedules… I decided that I didn’t want to wait for something that probably wouldn’t ever happen.

I hope you enjoy a few of the photos from my time in Joshua Tree!
My time in Palm Springs!
Some work, some play, all sun for two days! This whirlwind trip to the Phoenix, Arizona area was a lovely break from winter. I’m starting to think this girl was made for warmer climates + very possibly the desert! Read more to hear about some highlights from this quick few days.
I can’t believe this trip happened. Heather and I almost always plan a trip after one of our friends gets married… last time it was Seattle, this year…. Moab, Utah! This trip cost us less than $500 total apiece (honestly less than that… my flights were $200 so the Utah portion was more like $300) and full of amazing views and great memories. I can’t wait to go back someday!

Let me help you make the most of your engagement photos and have a blast with your boo! Destination engagement photos or in your backyard... let's go!
Photographing Christina + Noah in the mountains of Colorado, just between Denver and Breckenridge, was a dream come true. Not only did we have the perfect winter afternoon, complete with sunshine & snow flurries & hot chocolate, but these two are both so kind and intentional. Check out this epic winter mountain photo session!!
Before I wrote and posted on the website/blog, my mom, sister and I traveled to the land Down Under. Never in my lifetime did I expect to get to travel to Australia! However, in high school, my friend Mikayla and her family moved there… and when she started dating an Australian we realized that mayyyybe someday a trip would be in our future. So, when Kayla and Luke got engaged and asked me to be in their wedding, we decided to make a family trip (minus dad) to this continent country.
Oh friends! This trip was a DREAM. Literally never wanted to wake up (although I also was exhausted by the end of this trip— so much so that I slept in my car for an hour at a rest stop 1.5 hours away from home). I really fell in love with DC. Low key trying to decide if I want to move there now. (semi-no joking.) Of course, this may all change when I visit NYC for the first time but for now… I really do think Washington DC is both the capitol city of our nation & my heart.
