I'm a 22 year old photographer located in Duluth, Minnesota. I've been passionately pursuing photography since I was 13 years old & have been capturing love stories and milestones as a business owner for 5 years. 

What I bring to the table might not be what you expect out of the traditional photographer. I'm here to be your stylist, hair and makeup fixer upper, dress fluffer, timeline maker, a guide + open book of knowledge, comedian (maybe), and most of all, someone you can trust. I also just graduated with my BSN in May, meaning that you can also count me as a helping hand in most things nursing if by rare chance we ever stumble across that moment.

I thrive on working with those who bring energy + fun into each experience, creating images that authentically capture the love and spirit of each special moment.

Ava was our photographer over a week ago for our wedding in Duluth, and I can’t fit enough good things about her in this review! She is so attentive to detail, on schedule, and overall the most amazing person! She was there for us when we needed her, kept us all on track, and knew exactly what to do even when we didn’t. Her personality is as beautiful as she is and I cannot recommend her enough for your big day! You will not be disappointed with the breathtaking pictures she creates!

"From the start, Ava was so communicative, detailed, creative and a JOY to have as our photographer. She made our engagement session so fun, playful and a wonderful memory for us to look back on (despite us being nervous for our first photo shoot together!). She truly made us feel prepared and ready for our big day! She was AMAZING on our wedding day - she had our timeline down to a T, we didn't have to think about what "was next" and just ENJOYED our day as she captured our beautiful moments. I can't express her talent. How she let things just flow, capturing real, raw footage. It was everything and more that we could have imagined. We wouldn't have wanted any other photographer on our wedding day!"

"Ava is amazing. She first began taking photos of my husband and I when we were newer into dating, took our proposal photos, announcement photos, maternity, newborn, family photos and then wedding photos. She’s done it all! She has captured our journey in the most beautiful way! Definitely recommend!"
