West Michigan Family Photographer // Hannah & Maddy’s Family! Look at these cuties! It was Hannah and Maddy’s first time in front of my camera and I sure hope I get to see them again sometime. These sisters were so sweet and giggled nonstop. They make my job fun 🙂
I’m a wedding and portrait photographer, and I’m also a disability advocate working to make the wedding industry more accessible, thoughtful, and welcoming. I believe love stories deserve to be told in spaces where care, dignity, and access are part of the experience - not an afterthought.
This work is deeply personal to me. I’m helping build an industry that’s ready for my daughter, Gabby - so that when it’s her turn to dream, celebrate, and be celebrated, the world is already open to her, just as she is.
