I'm a wife, a mama, and the heart behind Gunpowder & Lace Photography.
I didn’t just start this as a business. I built it around my life.
Around slow evenings. Around golden hour. Around the moments I never want to forget.
It’s laid-back.
It’s real.
It’s not stiff or overly posed.
I’ll guide you when you need it.
I’ll step back when the moment is already happening.
And I promise you won’t feel awkward the entire time.
We’ll laugh.
Your kids will move.
And somehow, that’s where the best images come from.
I didn’t start photography because I wanted perfect pictures.
I started because I didn’t want to miss it.
The way your kids grab your hand without thinking.
The way your husband looks at you when you’re laughing and don’t even realize it.
The in-between stuff that feels small now but won’t later.
I know what it’s like to always be the one behind the camera.
And I don’t want other moms looking back and realizing they’re barely in the frame.
That’s why I do this.
• I live in boots more than I should.
• Golden hour is my favorite time of day.
• I care about the small details more than most people notice.
• I’ll probably cry at your wedding.
• My daughter inspires half of what I create.
