Our Home
I would like to say that I'm a neat and tidy person. With two young boys that's an impossible description to achieve, and making messes with my family is more fun than cleaning them up. While the chaos can be overwhelming, I am proud how we made the house our home. I love walking by so many great memories on our walls.

What if...
If I could cast any celebrity to play me in a movie, I would hope Tina Fey would be on board. I love everything she creates and how she has balanced being a high-achieving female, an involved parent, and an all around awesome human. She coincidentally is another Greek woman that rocks glasses most days.
About Me
I come from a long line of entrepreneurs who taught me the importance of serving your community. Before I went into business for myself, I also worked with some amazing corporations like Disney and JetBlue that strengthened my professional values.
Like many in Central Florida, I grew up in PA and moved here as soon as I could. I married an Orlando native after meeting him on Match. We have a lot in common: love of travel and great food, we would choose adventure over relaxation, we will always dress up for Halloween, and we both have a fierce competitive spirit that has made for some awkward game nights.

Looking vs. Seeing
In the Frame
We all want to be recognized for the space we hold on this earth- valued for not just what we do, but why we do it. I am passionate about doing just that for the people that come into my life.
The human experience is rarely a solitary one, yet it is so unique to each person even within a family.
How we experience life and what we bring forward to others changes with time and the people we are with.
I see you, the individual and you, the unit; and I'm honored to be there to document all of it.
It Matters
Philosophy
I truly believe there is more value in the everyday moments than in the forced, practiced smiles of standard portraits.
A traditional annual family portrait session specifically designed to get you an image for a holiday card will capture what you all looked like that year.
A session with me will capture what it feels like to be your family at this stage in your lives together.
This is my why- the reason I put my focus on delivering poetic, genuine, real moment imagery that makes for meaningful, heirloom art pieces.
Everyone Starts Somewhere
My Photography Experience
I know it’s cliche, but photography has always been a part of my life. My dad owned a photography studio and gifted me my first Nikon SLR at 16- I still have that F4 in my collection.
Professional Start
I spent more than a decade documenting love stories under the Sona Photography brand. As I ventured further along in my own journey, I found that there is so much more to a person's story leading up to and beyond their wedding day that should be documented beautifully and made into everlasting art.
Why Documentary
Thanks to technology, we're all photographers making the tough decision day-in and day-out to live it or capture it (forfeiting our chance to be an active part of a memory).
I aim to be the solution to that problem so more parents can get in thoughtfully made pictures that will allow memories to be relived time and time again.
