Samantha

Swim

A soft soul, deeply connected to the earth; especially the ocean. Sam floats and shines in front of the camera. She feels every shot and you can tell. Each drop of water on her skin, every soft breeze of fresh ocean air through her hair and the massaging touch of sand on her feet. Her light and beauty radiates through the lens and captures just how grounded and connected this moment was to the elements around her.

Beautiful alignment with these two sisters. Samantha graduated from college the same year Natalie graduated from high school.

Movement in Nature

Such a natural photoshoot with Paige. It was so easy to capture her beauty and movement while she danced to the sounds of the morning birds on the trail. We both got lost in our art as we felt the morning sunshine come through the hills and tree branches. A portrait and personal branding session all captured in such an authentic moment.

Celebrating Ashely's incredible accomplishments at Cal Lutheran. We caught the morning light and ran all around campus reminiscing about her time on campus.
