CERTIFICATION & EDUCATION
 
Safety first, fun second—but definitely safety first.
 
When choosing a photographer, you are entrusting that your family will be beautifully captured and protected.— I bring a level of clinical experience that few photographers can offer. With a medical background as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), I’ve paired my nursing background with specialized certifications in newborn posing & safety to create a session that is as secure as it is beautiful. I am also trained in CPR, bloodborne pathogens, and child abuse/neglect recognition.
In addition to my medical & safety training, I am employed as an M.H. Paraprofessional at Champion Local Schools, where I work with children in grades K-8 with a wide range of special needs. I am familiar with the needs & sensitivities of children with all tiers of Autism, Down syndrome, physical limitations, & emotionally distressed behaviors.
