The Heart Behind the Name


The Song Collective was taken from my last name and my connection of music to story telling. I love how everyone has different stories, different vibes, but they all are beautiful in their own way.


I’m all about capturing what’s real. Whether we’re laughing, swapping stories, or simply hanging out, I want you to feel comfortable, seen and beautiful. I will always opt in for an experience based photoshoot over a posed one because I want it to be something you can look back at with fond memories of. Not just photos for your wall or social media, but true memories.





I love connecting with people who value authenticity and a lot of whimsy.
