What I care about most are the simple things. Taking walks through my neighborhood to get coffee, staying up late under the stars with friends, running around naked in the desert, listening to birds in the backyard, jumping in lakes and camping with my pups, making dumb jokes with friends — just being.

I want to capture your simple things, all the little things that make up who you are, what brings you joy, and what your love is. Whatever that looks like, this chapter in your life is worthy of being documented and remembered for exactly what it is. The real love stuff. Its not posed, it’s not like it is in the movies. It’s so much better than that.

I’m one of those people who picks up a new hobby every few months and goes hard on it, some of those things include : gardening, camping, rock climbing, sustainability, skydiving, snowboarding, beekeeping, pottery, dumpster diving, building things, thrifting, trash tv, teaching, and caring for my house plants.

More than anything I love to be with the people I love, my family and chosen family, and the two little pups I get to call mine.

My world revolves around these two little ladies: Meeko & Luce.

Meeko is my raccoon – deer – cookies and cream – bear cub baby. She’s a 6-year-old Aussie whose love language is an overwhelming amount of physical touch and making friends with anyone and anything that breathes (chickens, fish, bugs, you name it). Her favorite things to do include staring at me all day, swimming in circles until I pull her out of the lake, and chasing after deer and cattle.

Luce is my little grandma – sea lion – cow – potato – lizard – cat. She’s a rescued 12-year-old pitbull who I’ve had since she was 5. She’s been my greatest teacher of patience and unconditional love. She’s fierce and incredibly tender. She loves to bake in the sun (so much that I have to put sunscreen on her little utters), graze on grass like a cow, sniff out every critter living underground, and napping 23 hours a day.

I grew up in a tiny town in the high desert of Utah, and am now based in a quiet neighborhood in Salt Lake City. Utah is where I learned about my love for the outdoors, the mountains and the desert. I’ve spent countless days wandering through sagebrush arrowhead hunting, riding dirt bikes through backroads, cowboy camping under the stars, and loading up the car to head to the mountains. Utah is my home and although I’ve traveled to hundreds of the most beautiful places in the world, this is where my heart always comes back to.
