Photography kind of snuck up on me in the best way. I married my high-school sweetheart, we had two wild little boys, and suddenly our days were full of these tiny, perfect moments I didn't want to forget. So I grabbed a camera just to keep up with our life—nothing fancy at first, just snapping the chaos and sweetness of raising kids and building a family. What started as 'I need pictures of the boys before they grow up overnight' turned into something I couldn't put down. Every time I pressed the shutter I felt this quiet thrill—like I was actually holding onto a piece of time that was about to slip away. The goofy laughs, the sleepy morning cuddles, the way light hits their faces when they're lost in play… I fell in love with freezing those ordinary-but-magic seconds.
