I became a dog photographer because it allows me to give back in the best way I know how—by capturing the heart and soul of animals, helping them shine so they can find their forever homes. My camera lens isn’t just a tool; it's a way to amplify their stories, making sure they're seen by the right people. Rescuing animals has always been my passion, and this gives me the chance to combine that love with my creativity. It’s not just about snapping photos—it's about changing their lives.
HOW I LOVE TO WORK WITH ANIMAL RESCUES:
I. OFFER PHOTO SHOOTS FOR ADOPTABLE DOGS
Working with rescues and shelters who are looking to get adoptable dogs photographed so you can showcase them in their best light!
II. OFFER SESSIONS FOR FOSTER DOGS
Fostering is so rewarding. I love working with foster parents to schedule a session to help get their foster dog noticed and adopted through the power of a great photograph!
III. auction items for events
Do you have an upcoming event and looking for an auction item that your guests would love to bid on? I'd love the opportunity to work with you to help your auction shine!
WHY I LOVE WHAT I DO
"Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog, the world will forever change."

In 2016, I got my first taste of fostering when one of my sister’s friends needed to rehome their dog. He was perfect—sweet, lovable, and, well, just didn’t fit into their busy schedule anymore. Enter Noodle, the absolute sweetest boy who started me on this wild fostering journey! Since then, every dog has found their FUR-ever home, and the ride has been a whirlwind of slobbery kisses and wagging tails.
From those epic freedom rides, where you can literally see the smiles on their faces as they leave the shelter, to the joy of their first bath, their first full belly, and watching them curl up in a cozy bed—they soak it all in with pure bliss. Seeing a dog discover toys, make new furry friends, and find a safe place to call home is beyond rewarding. Honestly, fostering is amazing because it's not just about saving a life—it’s about giving them the chance to live their best life, full of love, belly rubs, and endless treats.
I’ll forever hold each of these pups close to my heart, as well as the incredible rescues that brought them into my life: Free to Live, Oklahoma City Animal Welfare, Country Roads Animal Rescue, 405 Animal Rescue, and Bella SPCA. Fostering isn’t just a responsibility—it’s a privilege!

Fast forward to now, and while we’re not able to foster at the moment, my commitment to helping animals hasn’t wavered. Instead, I’ve thrown myself into using my photography to support local rescues. Capturing these beautiful souls and helping them get noticed by potential adopters is my way of making a difference until we’re able to open our home to fosters again. One day, we’ll be back to giving those freedom rides and cozy beds, but for now, I’m doing what I can, one photo at a time!
