I come from an event planning background, which means I know how wedding days actually unfold. When to gently guide. When to disappear into the background. And how to pivot without making it a whole thing when plans change. Your emotions always come first, and my goal is to photograph you as you truly are. Not stiff. Not posed. Not performing. Just you, in your element, with your people.
I was adopted from China, and that experience deeply shaped how I see the world. It gave me a profound appreciation for chosen family, for the meaning of home, and for the quiet power of community. That’s a big reason why I’m so drawn to intimate weddings. Days that feel personal. Familiar. Safe. The kind of celebrations where everyone belongs and the focus is on connection, not spectacle.
I’ve lived in Boise my whole life, and the values I carry with me are simple but important: inclusivity, empathy, and compassion. I believe wedding days should feel welcoming, unrushed, and fully yours. Outside of photography, you’ll find me chasing good food, going to concerts, taking long walks, and having way-too-long phone calls with friends. The simple stuff keeps me inspired, and that calm, grounded energy is exactly what I bring with me on your wedding day.
