My Story

Dramatic Sports Photographer

 

I am a lover of Jesus, a mother to two beautiful girls who light up my life. We love to travel, go on adventures all while making memories.

​

I fell in love with capturing my daughters milestones & memories with photos. Yes, I am that mom with 10,000+ photos of her kiddos in her iCloud.  


Photography is a passion that fills my heart with so much love & joy. I'm able to freeze those nostalgic memories with just the click of a button.

​

When I am not behind the camera, you will find me enjoying life with my girls and family.  Florida has become our home away from home. 

​

I am also on the board of directors for Kaleidoscope Teens a Non-profit that is near and dear to my heart. We work with teen's who have struggled with mental health throughout the twin cities. My girls and I love being able to help others, while bringing hope and love to those we meet daily.

My story...

 

 

We LOVE because he first loved us...


I have always worked with children. I started in a child care facility while I was in High School. I then went on to be an Early Childcare Teacher at a Montessori School. I am currently a Paraprofessional in the schools working with special educational students. While I have love every second of working with students, I feel as though my true passion has always been being behind a camera.


In December 2019, I had a brain aneurysm rupture while playing basketball. God placed the right people with me who rushed me to an urgent care that had a CAT-scan that was able to detect it. I was then rushed by ambulance to Abbots in Mpls. for surgery. My brother posted my condition on Social Media & I had many prayer warriors praying for me the entire time. God provided me with the right care & an amazing medical team that took care of me. The doctors had told my family that I would have a long road a head of me, with only a 10% chance of walking away from that type of Brain Aneurysm that I had. Christmas was right around the corner and all I wanted to do was go home to my daughters. After only 8 days in the hospital I was able to go home on Christmas morning to spend Christmas with my beautiful girls & family. The doctors called me a miracle, and I only have God to thank for that! 

​

Then 3 months after that the Pandemic hit. During that time I decided to take a leap of Faith & follow my dreams to become a photographer. I got my first professional camera in January 2021. I then started teaching myself everything about photography. Finding my true passion has been the best journey ever. I am beyond blessed for all God has provided me with & thankful for this opportunity to bless my clients by capturing their beautiful families to provide them with memories that will last a lifetime. I appreciate you considering me as your photographer and look forward to helping you capture those memories. 

 

Journey to becoming a

Dramatic Sports Photographer

I'm a photographer based in the Twin Cities- Minnesota area. When not spending time with my daughters you will find me behind the camera! I Started photography 5 years ago as a portrait, family, wedding and newborn photographer. In the last year I have shifted my business to focus on Dramatic Sports.


I am a 3 sport athlete myself who loves everything about sports; and after many years of praying for guidance in my business, I felt God was pushing me to combine my two passions together- Sports + Photography is how Prevail Sports became a reality!


By using  my sports knowledge and photography skills I am able to capture a unique Dramatic style of photos for athletes. Using Lights, smoke, fire and action gives me the opportunity to separate your athletes photo from basic to EPIC! Your session included an experience not just a basic photoshoot! We have fun and get creative making each session unique and unforgettable.


What I Believe

Unique images happen between control and chaos. By using movement, lights, color gels, smoke, or fire help take a normal pose to a Dramatic image.
