About
My years of working as a freelance graphic designer and a retail sales person has given me much experience in working in a fast paced environment. I have learned to remain friendly and positive even as situations become overwhelming and potentially stressful. I am obsessively punctual and always arrive to work clean, on time, and with a smile on my face. I am also in love with good coffee (and any delicious brewed beverage for that matter; coffee, tea, beer, I couldgo on).

I run my own freelance photography business. I shoot primarily wedding and other portrait photography. I have been the lead photographer on ten weddings and assistant on several others. My responsibilities include keeping things on schedule, keeping the atmosphere positive in potentially stressful situations and, of course, producing an excellent product for the client.
