Beau Monde Photos

I have been shooting since I was in high school, and have loved learning and growing more and more creative every day. I have a BS from the University of Alabama Birmingham and have attended various creative and information workshops to further the growth of my business. I am inspired by my children, art, music, film, light, happiness, and all things beautiful. When I think about photography and the way it makes me feel, I become speechless. Creating a piece of art that expresses the love and joy in my clients has become more than a career for me, but something that is second nature and a constant thought in the back of my mind. I love love, and i love capturing it for my clients to look back on for years to come. If I were to describe my work, the first thing I would say would be romantic. It has a natural feel with a vintage twist. It is timeless, unique, and evokes emotion just as if the couple is feeling it. I love having fun with my clients and getting to know them. By the time the session or wedding is over, we have grown to be friends. When shooting, I keep things completely relaxed and just allow my clients to be themselves. Some of the time, it doesn't even seem like the camera is present. I have my clients interact with each other to connect with each other; this really helps to bring out the romance and ease any awkward tension. All of this to say, I love doing what I do, and would be honored to be a part of the special time in your life.
