Artist Statement

I am a fine art photographer based in Charlotte, NC, with a commitment to capturing contemplative moments of everyday life. My work is rooted in themes of connection—to nature, to others, to ourselves—and is defined by an intuitive sense of stillness and observation. In my photographs, I aim to convey a sense of timeless sensitivity and soulful simplicity, inviting the viewer to slow down and reconnect.

I work primarily with 35mm and medium format film, as I find that the tactile, slow process of analog photography aligns with the way I want to work. My creative journey began during childhood. As the quiet younger sister, the instinct to listen and observe became a through thread — woven seamlessly into my personality and my work. My artistic endeavors were nurtured by the encouragement of my parents and grandparents, and developed through formative experiences at SCAD, NC State, and East Carolina University.

Living in Charlotte with my husband and two dogs, Finn and Moose, I continue to be inspired by the quiet moments in my everyday surroundings.
