Starting with weddings in the days of film, she loves getting involved in her community shooting for small businesses, families, non-profits and craftspeople. Born and raised in Upper Michigan, she has traded the snow for the rain, and misses lakes and pasties. As a child, inspired by her Grandmother and a love of sweets, she baked every weekend (and for holidays and all of the family birthdays-sometimes including her own!), and is so happy to continue her love of food in Portland.
