About Me
I was born and raised in Clearwater, FL and moved to the small town of Hartville, MO in 2008. I graduated from Hartville High School in 2011 and Attended Ozark Technical Community College until 2015. At home, I have 4 beautiful kids and am a single mom. I do have a good coparenting relationship. I currently live right outside of Springfield, MO in a small town called Strafford. In my spare time I enjoy hiking, kayaking, and traveling to beautiful new places.
I have loved photography since high school and dabbled into doing senior photos in 2011-2012, but later moved towards a career in Early Childhood and then into Business Management. Since having my two youngest children, yes they are twins, I have decided to jump back into my old passion of photography.
Currently, I would categorize myself as a Family Life Photographer, but I specialize in Maternity to Newborn. My Experience includes; Newborns/Infants, Toddlers, Children, Families, Sporting Events, Sport Photos, Seniors, Couples, Wedding, Boudoir, and Seasonal Holidays. Ps. Christmas is my FAVORITE! I am well trained in Newborn Safety & Newborn Posing and take it very seriously. I have taken multiple workshops online and in person to complete my training. I am fully certified in Newborn Safety & Education.
My clients would say I am a baby whisper. I adore the littles that come in front of my camera and they are probably my favorites. Newborn sessions tend to be my most popular and favorite sessions, followed by maternity. However please forgive me if I address your husband as "dad" our entire session, its a horrible habit. I have worked with around 200 newborns in total in the last 4 years.
Outside of photography and being a Mother of four, I am active with my kids sports and volunteering when I can. My older 2 girls are both in travel softball and we stay very busy during the summer. Erin is an Active Volunteer for On Angels Wings.
My studio space is located in Studio Share 417. I am a Platinum Member and share my studio space with 2 other well established and well known photographers in the Springfield Area; MMH Photography & Nelson Co. Photography. We are all great friends and love what we do!
Overall, I would love to help you with capturing your families memories. If you have any questions, please do not fail to contact me. The best method to reach me is via Facebook Messenger or via Email. Once a client/photographer relationship has been established, I typically give my regular clients my cell phone for texting or calling. I do not give out my personal number to new perspective clients just for personal safety reasons.
Thank you and hope to speak to you very soon!
