Welcome! I’m glad you are here and I hope you stay for a while.

Lovely Thyme Studio not only serves as my portfolio - it is an online space where I am celebrating making, photographing, and eating. Regardless of diet, don’t we all love food?

I’ve been food blogging in some form since 2017. Now, I am focused on creating imagery and content for brands and websites. I shoot for food blogs, cookbooks, brands, and any project that aligns with my purpose.

I never grow tired of being creative with food! On the blog side, you can expect to see posts with food photography tips or some of my most-loved recipes and maybe the occasional lifestyle entry.

More about me

Outside of food photography and recipe creation, I like to spend time running and watching reality TV shows. I am also a dog mom!

My Background

I grew up in the suburbs of Missouri and went to college in Kansas where I obtained a BSW (bachelor of social work). Having a history in social work has helped me tremendously in the “human element” of photography business. I picked up my first DSLR in 2018 and haven’t stopped clicking away.

Favorite Things

Coffee, online shopping, and hanging with the dogs. Of course, photography and writing are some of my favorite ways to spend my time. My dislikes - walnuts, brownies, and cleaning.

If you are here to browse, you might enjoy some mojitos - this recipe is a readers’ favorite. If you connect with my style and want to work together, view my portfolio and contact pages.
