My photography journey begins July of 2023 at a baseball tournament in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. I was there watching Jack play and enjoying the weekend out of town with my friends and family. A mom of one of the players had a camera and a newborn which as you can imagine was a tough combination to juggle. She was kind enough to teach me to use her camera and I haven't put one down since. I came home ready to find equipment and something to shoot. My dad, Timothy, borrowed me his camera and several lenses that he had from working in the realty space.
Since then I have grown in my photography skills through many years of practice, and getting 11th Ave Media started. Through these experiences I have refined my skills in photography and editing to bring you my work today. I often think of every second passing and never having that back. I strive to live in the moment and embrace life as it comes. Trying new things, taking risks and leaping into new opportunities is very me. My photos and business reflect that. Photos pf you, as you are now, to look back on, is my specialty.
This year I will complete my senior high school while attending college at St. Cloud State University through the PSEO program. I will graduate in May with my associates degree and then I plan to pursue a major in business. I fill my days with work at several jobs and continue to enjoy it along with multiple passion projects, friends, and family.
I love to be outside, especially at the lake or on the farm. I love to be active and spend time having new experiences. Attraction parks, aquariums, zoos, fairs, and walks are my jam. I also love traveling. Some of my favorite spots have been Big Sky and Glacier National Park in Montana, Banff National Park in Canada, San Francisco in California and Bar Harbor in Maine. San Francisco has the best clam chowder and sour dough but when I am home my favorite food is tacos. Coffee, fun sparkling drinks, and water are always in my hand. Sunglasses too, of course. That's a little bit about me, I'm excited to know you!
