Celebrating Women. Telling Their Stories. Honoring Their Legacy.
This portrait series is dedicated to documenting the stories of extraordinary women—artists, scientists, therapists, entrepreneurs, teachers, caregivers, and creators—women who balance careers, home life, personal passions, and challenges with resilience and strength.
Through intimate, documentary-style photography and personal storytelling, this project seeks to capture the essence of each woman: her journey, her triumphs, the quiet moments of perseverance, and the connections that shape her life. It’s about more than just portraits—it’s about preserving the stories that too often go untold.
I am accepting nominations to feature inspiring women from all walks of life. If you or someone you know has a story worth sharing (we all do!), I invite you to be a part of this project.

I just got your message! I can't wait to connect with you.
I'll do my best to reply to your note as soon as possible.
Thank you!
photographs artfully documenting these bonds mean everything. I also greatly value the connections between generations these heirlooms forge. I feel so connected to my ancestors as I look through family photos and I want to extend this gift to my children and beyond. I can't wait to help you do the same. This work is important! Thank you for trusting me.

Why I do what I do?
I feel so passionate about focusing on the things that matter most in life - our relationships and connections with others. I've had to prematurely say goodbye too many times to people I care about deeply. Grief is such a hard path to walk but it has also finely tuned my focus in life. I work hard to find gratitude every day and live fully present. I've learned few possessions really matter but for me,
I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE
