I’ve been thinking lately about how fast it all moves.
One moment your kids are splashing barefoot in the sprinkler… the next, they’re heading off to their first summer job or driving off with their friends. The summers start to feel numbered. And as a mom, that hits deep.
We only get so many summers with our children.
So many golden hours where they reach for your hand, giggle over popsicles, or run wild through tall grass just because they can.
That’s why I created The Golden Hour Collective.
Not just as a photographer—but as a mom who knows what it feels like to want to freeze time.
For the ones who are always moving, growing, and making memories—sometimes faster than you can catch your breath.
For the hands held tight, the shared inside jokes, the belly laughs, and the quiet in-between moments.
For the ones behind the camera and the ones always in the middle of the action.
This is for the memory-makers. The story-keepers.
This is your chance to step into the frame—together—just as you are, with the people who make your world whole.
Experience luxurious family photography in Salmon, Idaho, dedicated to capturing your most special moments.
We’ll chase the sunset together, soak in the light, and document the season you're in—beautiful, wild, and real.
Golden Hour Collective sessions are more than just photo shoots—they’re an invitation to pause, breathe in the golden light, and celebrate the season you're in. Whether it’s your growing family, wild-hearted toddlers, your partner, or your closest crew, this is your chance to capture summer as it feels.

The Motion Memories video is a short, soundless film that captures your connection in motion—wind in the trees, hand-holding, laughter exchanged. It’s soft, heartfelt, and made from real moments.

Motion Memories are short, soundless video clips captured during your session—filled with real, unscripted moments.
They aren’t posed or planned. They’re glimpses of love in motion:
a hand brushing through hair,
siblings running barefoot in the grass,
your partner pulling you in for that quick, quiet hug,
your toddler's belly laugh as they twirl in the golden light.
These little films don’t need words or music to tell your story.
They let you feel the moment again—just as it was.
Motion Memories are a gift with your Radiance Session—a way to remember not just how it looked, but how it felt.
Because sometimes, the smallest motions hold the biggest memories
Golden Hour Collective sessions are offered on select summer evenings only.
Spots are limited to ensure each session is relaxed, personal, and perfectly timed with the setting sun.
Let’s bottle up a little sunshine for you to hold onto—long after summer fades.
I believe in golden light, honest moments, and holding onto the seasons that pass way too fast.
As a mom myself, I know how often we're the ones behind the camera—making memories for everyone else. My goal is to change that. I want you in the frame, feeling seen and connected to the people you love most.
Whether I’m photographing families chasing their barefoot kiddos, couples wrapped up in the soft glow of sunset, or siblings laughing in the tall grass, I’m here to give you something real. Something timeless. Something that lasts longer than the moment itself.
Let’s slow it all down together—and tell your story in the light you’ll always remember.
of this work is getting to photograph so many different families—each with their own rhythm, laughter, and love. I've watched little ones grow, couples become parents, and siblings turn into best friends. Every session is a glimpse into someone’s story, and I’m honored to help tell it.
