About
Finding the ideal photographer to capture your special moments or projects can seem daunting with the vast, diverse and ever-changing options available in this saturated industry. To ensure I am the perfect match for you, I have shared some personal information and my background to help make an informed decision. Establishing a relationship built on trust, professionalism, fun, and comfort with your photographer is key to receiving the best results! Communication is vital, allowing for smooth sailing throughout your shoot.

To understand my experience, let me share my origin story. My introduction to the photography industry began at the age of 11 when I was signed with a modeling agency, continuing throughout my high school years. While modeling, a veteran photographer suggested that I practice at home, learning my angles and poses, finding my light and understanding what the photographer sees during a shoot. At age 15, I received my first DSLR camera, igniting my passion, and driving me to enroll in every photography class offered at my high school. I even completed a film photography course, adding to my passion. My love for photography continued into college, where I received certification in photography from the University of Utah.

Today, I boast six years of photography experience, with three spent shooting professionally, combined with ten years of modeling experience that aid in coaching clients to pose flawlessly throughout our sessions.

Ava has a natural talent for capturing genuine emotions through her art, making her a valuable gift. When my husband and I decided to retake our wedding photos with a more natural and artistic approach, we were thrilled with the results. Ava's thoroughness, guidance on posing, attention to detail in correcting wardrobe and hair, and ability to make us feel relaxed immediately made it a fun experience. Additionally, her quick communication and prompt delivery of the final pictures impressed us, and we cannot wait for our next visit to Utah to work with her again. We highly recommend Ava's services to anyone in the area.

Ava is a photographer who stands out from the rest! As someone who regularly works with photography, she consistently leaves me in awe! Her photos are of top-notch quality, but that's not all. She goes above and beyond by providing tips on poses to enhance the pictures! I always feel self-conscious during shoots, but Ava helped me feel more at ease and made me look amazing! I wouldn't recommend any other photographer! Thank you, Ava!

I had my graduation photos taken by Ava, who was recommended to me by others in my community. Although I didn't know her before, I was impressed with her work when I saw the finished product. As someone who doesn't know how to pose for photos, I was made to feel beautiful. Ava was skilled in directing me on where to look and how to position my body, and she also found gorgeous backgrounds in the location I chose. I am grateful to Ava and highly recommend her services as a photographer. ❤️
