About

Originally from the United States, I grew up near Boston, MA and relocated to Sydney, Australia with my husband, Brian in 2012, where we are currently based. We both share a love for travel and our journey has taken us to some incredible places over the years.

Growing up in New England allowed me to enjoy and experience the different seasons throughout the year and has influenced my work as a photographer. I have always loved being out in nature and as the seasons changed, it felt like a new chapter was beginning. There was something special about each season; the smell of fresh cut grass on a summer day, the leaves changing color in autumn, or coming in from the cold, crisp air of winter. Each moment creates a unique experience, feeling and memory.

Landscape photography has been a creative outlet for me as it brings a sense of calm and appreciation for life, when surrounded by nature. I strive to convey a sense of place and feeling with each image captured. When we are not travelling, we look after our very energetic Labrador pup, Easton. He is a sweet boy with a big personality and keeps us on our toes!
