Why did you decide to become a videographer?

I went to film school to be a screenwriter and director but discovered I really liked editing and being behind a camera as well—plus there’s more freelance opportunity there than in writing!

What is your favorite memory from an event you shot at?

I got to shoot a wedding at Notre Dame last summer. What a gorgeous campus and an incredible place to shoot! Plus, it would’ve made my Irish Catholic father very proud. 🙂

What makes your work unique / stand out?

I think I am very good at finding stories and moments in candid interactions. I frame shots on the fly very well and offer our editors tons of options, resulting in our clients ending up with unique results that fit the flavor of their event.

What is your favorite thing about being a videographer?

I love capturing precious and unique moments. I often film kids at weddings because their spontaneity and joy are infectious. Seeing family celebrating together and being a part of that inspires me.

List one fun fact most people do not know about you

Before getting married and pivoting to creativity that would keep me closer to home, I played guitar and sang in pop-punk and power-pop bands for almost a decade. I also have four kids (ages 4-14), which even I can’t believe I pulled off lol.
