I grew up in a small town in southern Utah, surrounded by red rock and wide open sky. I picked up my first camera at seventeen and never really put it down. What started as a way to hold onto moments became a career built entirely around other people's most important ones. After years of second shooting and assisting, I photographed my first solo wedding in 2015 in Zion National Park. The couple cried during their vows, their dog crashed the ceremony, and their grandmother danced until midnight. I knew immediately this was exactly where I was supposed to be.
