Photography has always played a very important role in my life. There is not one time growing up when my mom did not have a camera in her hand, and there is not one moment of my life that was not captured on film.

Throughout my childhood, I always had a fascination with not only photography, but also weddings.

Before my mom turned her passion into a home-based business, she owned a bridal shop in downtown Waukesha. I remember greeting customers as they came in the door, and watching all of the brides come in to view my mom's photography. I loved the feeling that I got being there with my mom, watching her work, helping her with odd projects. The most exciting part about working with my mom was when December rolled around. December was my time to shine in the Waukesha Bridal Expo that my mom ran at the time. Needless to say, I spent a lot of time at our shop prancing up and down the hallways practicing my walk (usually to Michael Bolton songs on the radio) for the upcoming bridal shows that I modeled in. My claim to fame: being a mini bride with the mini groom, and feeding each other a piece of Wisconsin's LARGEST wedding cake!

I remember getting my first camera when I was only nine years old from my mom. From that moment in time, photography became one of my life long passions. My hobby of photography, which started with pictures of our family, pets and vacations, has grown over the years. Now I enjoy capturing the timeless essence of landscape photography, animal photography, family photography, but most of all wedding photography. I have a deep appreciation of art and photojournalism. Planning my own wedding in 2002 and being a bride was one of the greatest times of my life. I can appreciate all that goes into planning a wedding.

Thank you for considering Golden Memories Photography. We look forward to working with you and capturing your most precious memories that only happen one moment in time.
