Hi, I'm Riley and welcome to my little corner of the internet.

I’m so happy you found your way here, and I can’t wait to share a little about myself with you (get ready for some rambling, haha)! My heart loves capturing all the moments—big, small, joyful, messy, and everything in between. Whether it’s a family session, photos with your grandma, kids playing at the playground, or even an extended family gathering with 20 people, my answer is always the same: YESSSSS! If there’s someone (or something) you love, they absolutely deserve to have beautiful photos to hold onto.

Photography wasn’t something I planned on, but it quickly became a passion I can’t imagine life without. I’ve always had an artsy side, but the journey really began when my best friend asked me to take maternity photos for her. At the time, we thought they were amazing—looking back, well, let’s just say I’ve definitely grown as a photographer! But from that moment, something magical happened: people started asking me to take their photos too, and here I am, living my dream of capturing special moments for others.

When I’m not behind the camera, I’m the Director of Programming for Wheeling Heritage, and I’m a mom to two wild, wonderful kiddos who keep me on my toes. And here’s something else—before I ever picked up a camera, I was a kindergarten teacher! So, if you’ve got little ones who might be a little squirmy during our session, don’t worry! I’ve got you covered.

Photography is a side gig for me, so if you don’t hear back from me immediately, please don’t be sad! Life can get a bit busy, but I promise, I always love hearing from you and will get back to you as soon as I can. Don’t hesitate to message me again if you’re waiting for a response—I promise I won’t forget you!

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I can’t wait to work with you to capture memories that will last a lifetime.
