I’m just a human in my 30s trying to figure it all out—usually with a scoop of ice cream in hand and a story to tell. This little corner of the internet is where I share the messy, magical, sometimes hilarious ride of growing, healing, and becoming.

I have a wonderful husband, Andrew, and future plans to grow our family… just not quite yet! (Hehe.) We love being outside—me walking, him cruising by on his skateboard. Our favorite date night? Takeout and a new show to binge. The way to my heart is asking, “Where do you want to eat?” But best of all? We have absolutely nothing figured out. Yippee!

Here, you’ll find stories about what it feels like to be fully alive—heartbreak and hope, change and comfort, fear and freedom. My hope? That in these words, you feel a little less alone.


You’ll also find stories that aren’t mine—love and adventure stories from the Smokies and beyond. As an elopement planner and photographer, I get to work with some pretty badass couples who live for wild, meaningful, totally-them moments. This is where I share their stories, tips and tricks for planning, and a spotlight on some of my favorite vendors in the industry.



Travel and exploration are core values in my life, so you’ll see plenty of both here. I hope to tell Andrew and I’s story through our adventures—and maybe some stories of the beautiful humans we meet along the way.


Kindness is my north star.
Curiosity is my fuel.
Creativity is my daily vitamin.
I believe in traveling often, laughing loudly, and always leaving room for dessert.
