A little about me
I was born and raised in Lancaster County, PA where I got married and started a family of my own. We moved to Fort Wayne, IN July of 2022. I have two kids, 6 and 2 and they are a handful. We are a neurodivergent, secular, homeschooling family and let me tell you, some days are wild. I love being outside and saying hello to my plants. I know lots about herbalism and what plants heal your body. My dream is to have a homestead one day and offer all kinds of classes for the community.
I've always been an artsy, weird kid and have dabbled in almost every hobby. Photography is the one that stuck. My first camera was my mom's old film camera that I would take everywhere. I was soon gifted a dslr camera from my husband and grandmother in law one Christmas and things grew from there. I started taking photos of my husband's shows, bands, and eventually it turned into weddings. I realized how precious moments and photographs were after having way too many people in my life pass. I've noticed over the years people use these photographs- my photographs to not only remember the happy moments, but to remember those who helped mold and shape the humans they've become. I respect the importance of my job in keeping those memories alive. NOW I know that got a little heavy BUT I SWEAR I'M A FUN PERSON.
Here are some of my favorite things
- A good cup of coffee.
- Snowy/ rainy days where I can camp out in front of the window.
- All things cozy.
- Anything and everything hand made.
- Exploring nature and looking for rocks to add to my collection.
- Cooking and baking from scratch.
- All things lavender.
- Watching my kids play and grow together.
- Celebrating sabbats, holidays, and made up family days just for fun.
- Finding those people who I have instant connections with.
- Workin Moms and New girl are my go to shows
