New Service Rates

2010-10-05T08:46:00.001-07:00

I have felt that the time had arrived for me to change my rates on the services I offer. Please know that I kept affordability my top priority when changing these rates.
It is very important to me that photography and makeup services should be available to anyone and everyone, no matter what the budget. This was my goal when starting my business and it's a goal that I plan to keep.

All rates can be found under both the session info tab and the makeup info tab.

All appointments that were made prior to September 1st will be honored at the previous rates.

Thanks for all of your continued support!

I am a member of a Facebook group called ‘World Photo Contest’. Each week, people from all over the world, vote on different pictures related to a theme. Last week’s theme was tattoo and I just so happened to have a shot of a really awesome sleeve taken at last year’s Pride Festival here in Columbia, SC. Well luck was on my side because my photo won Second Place!

Here’s a link to the World Photo Contest blog where you’ll be able to see my winning photo as well as all the others!

About Me

2010-01-24T11:18:00.001-08:00

For a long time I felt there was something missing in my life. I realized that what was missing was the ability to be creative and expressive in my everyday job. That’s when I decided to make a change. I stumbled into photography by accident. I took a picture of my niece walking down the street holding my mother’s hand. Five years later, I am hooked thanks to the photograph I call “The One That Started It All”. Since then, I am happy to have turned that hobby into a thriving career.
In addition to being a photographer, I am a makeup artist. With over four years experience I have the ability to enhance a person’s outer beauty to match their inner beauty. It's amazing what you could do to boost someone's confidence, and I love being apart of that.

About the Sessions

About the Sessions

I am a photography naturalist, meaning I enjoy shooting on location and using natural lighting to my advantage. I love being able to capture those special moments often missed by most.

I offer candid, yet artistic photography. I feel most creative when observing rather than posing and I don’t believe in forcing something that should come naturally. With a photojournalistic style and artistic editing, your photographs will be something you will treasure forever.
