My life is about much more than taking beautiful images. My purpose is to connect with people and walk besides them on this amazing journey called life.  And ultimately, to encourage everyone I meet to truly enjoy this one life we are all given…it is such a gift!

I also believe that sharing one’s story & hardships and how God has brought us through them can bring life & healing to another person. It assures us all that we are not alone in these struggles...especially when everything about everyone else seems so perfect on Instagram!!!  

So here are a few of my hard times that I have overcome with God's strength...I grew up in a divorced home; I was in a verbally abusive relationship as a young adult for years; I’ve walked through a season when I thought I would lose my husband to a horrible illness; I’ve struggled with infertility; and then struggled with feeling that I "lost" myself after having those very children I prayed so hard for! 

It’s only of late, twenty years after graduating High School, (gasp!) that I have started to feel fully confident in myself, my body, my life and my purpose...although I know I have so much more to learn! 

My husband and I started City Light in 2015 to offer a life-giving church for real people, with real hardship. We exist to  help people know God personally, find freedom from their past through life-giving relationships, discover their God-given purpose & gifts and then walk in them!

So...If I can bless you with cherished photographs of your family that you can enjoy on your walls throughout the every day of life…my job as photographer is complete.

But if I can offer a listening ear to your hardships and assure you that you are not alone...if I can offer you a loving church family and ultimately, lead you to a life-giving relationship with Jesus...then I am truly fulfilling my purpose!
