From the heart

Photography has always been my first love. I was a photography major at university, and I recall standing on the side of a highway at night taking long-exposure shots and having the time of my life. Decades later I still feel the same!

My professional focus has also been in graphic design, feeling grateful to work on diverse projects assisting many organizations, large and small. Branding work is a passion and I love working with business owners and others to create or strengthen their visual communication in the marketplace.

Now I am combining these skills with Wilko & Sage. Continuing with design projects and photographing families and individuals, plus nature and our environments.

My north star is people and our planet. Traveling through different continents and meeting so many remarkable and inspiring people, along with witnessing the every day awe of the world around us, snapping the moments is both pure joy and a journey. The learning never stops.

Photographs are deeply sentimental and I have felt this since I was young. We cherish pictures of loved ones and the memories they offer. Small moments in the present become precious as the years fly by. Let’s capture these together!

It is an incredible honor and a joy to take each and every photo. Three generations together are moments to cherish, while also having a fabulous time!
