About Me
Pizza, Coffee, and travel define my life. I believe in traveling often and experiencing new cultures and ways of life. When I travel I try to find amazing hikes, so you will see a lot of those in my blog posts! I also have a constant hunger for organic/farm-to-table restaurants. I love finding the little hole-in-wall places that only the locals know about! In the summer I love playing beach volleyball.
I live in La Crosse, WI to take care of my grandparents while I still can. Right now that gives me purpose. Eventually I see myself moving to a larger city with lots of hikes and outdoor activities to do. I want to live a life with purpose, constantly engaging people, growing and pushing forward.
I believe in documenting lifestyles and people. Each person has so many different experiences that has shaped who they are as a person. It excites me to go into a wedding day without knowledge of the family and see how each family operates, relates and connects.
Marah at Popcorn Tavern Have you ever heard a buttery smooth voice to a tune by Beyonce? Well I have. One thing that really helps me is to attach myself to my couples and see the ins and outs of their lives. A lot of the time I can do this through social media. Sometimes, …
I had an amazing time making art with this girl. I cannot wait to see what the future has for us.
An ending connection A mixture of thoughts, quotes from a book I recently read, and self-reflection. Lately, I find myself stopping, watching out the window like I’ve seen my grandfather do over the years. I can remember time after time sitting in silence with him while he gazed out, lost in the Coulee region nature. …
A gain filled loss Wow. What a year to reflect on. From shooting photos far North Canada all the way down to Haiti and in between. From Toronto over to San Francisco. What do I say? What do you do? This is a gift. A true gift that keeps giving. I thank God for every …
Beauty in the Imperfections What does that actually mean, “Beauty in the Imperfections”? People have said that this wedding photo is “absolutely perfect”, and I have heard people say that this is by far the best wedding image they have seen me take. What makes this photo tick? Personally, I believe it is just that… the …
2016. A year to be. Every year I tend to look back and forward. Or really…forward then back. Its a two way street with many lanes of thought that go through it. I go into every year not knowing what is to come. I am thankful for where I have been but a bit insecure …
Mt Hood If any of you don’t know, I like to take selfies. With this journey I found myself in Portland, OR. I took the frequent flyer miles that I had from traveling earlier this year to Japan, Hawaii, and Florida and went on a more personal journey to go get a closer look of …
Remarkables New Zealand The Remarkables New Zealand were some of the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. I have learned over my many years that having a home base is a necessity. There always needs to be a place where everyone calls home. However I am a avid traveler and pro travel as often …
Queenstown NZ Travel Photos Ever wake up in paradise? This is my kind of paradise. I am not for the beaches but the trails that lead off into the mountains. A place where I can get lost but yet find myself. While taking these Queenstown NZ Travel Photos I found myself in another country with a …
Sydney, Austrailia Trip I had an absolutely amazing time on my Sydney, Australia Trip. Honestly I have been considering the move ever since. With a very busy business scene and calm quaint little shops close by Sydney has the perfect mix of big city with little hot spots that you can escape to. I enjoyed …
