Hey there! I'm Kara. I've been capturing life's best moments with my camera since 2012. Before I got into photography, I spent nearly two decades shaping young minds as a preschool teacher. It was incredibly rewarding!

Nowadays, my life is a beautiful whirlwind of raising six amazing kids and sharing it all with my middle school sweetheart. They're my world, always keeping me on my toes and filling my heart with joy.

When I'm not snapping photos, you'll find me diving into interior design projects, tuning into thought-provoking podcasts, or enjoying some quality time at the playground with my little ones. We love going on adventures as a family and cooking up tasty meals together!

But being a photographer means more than just taking pictures to me. It's about connecting with people, understanding their stories, and capturing moments that truly reflect the love and warmth within their families.

So, let's go on this journey together, shall we? I'm excited to work with you and create some magic.
