In 2014 she published her first book, For the Love of Weddings: A Photographers Guide to Starting a Wedding Photography Business.

They now travel the world hosting sold-out retreats. She is proudly sponsored by Millers Professional Imaging.

Her work has been featured in People, Vogue Brasil, Cosmopolitan, Professional Photographer Magazine, E!, Click Magazine, The San Francisco Chronicle, Seattle Bride Magazine, Dear Photographer Magazine, and several online blogs/platforms including The Huffington Post, The Knot, Style Me Pretty, Lookslikefilm, Buzzfeed, Grace Ormond, and Grey Likes Weddings.
