One thing I regret as a newer mom is not having more photos of me with my baby when she was first born. I want don't want you to feel the same way.

I want more than anything for you to have these memories.

Hey, I get it.

Hey, I get it.

As a mom you are more likely to be behind the camera than in front of it. On top of that you want to savor every moment with your new little one and can't believe how fast they are growing. I've been there. I'm here for it.

Founder of Girard & Co. Photography. After graduating with a degree in design 
and photography, I chose to focus on design for a number of years before circling back to photography. Having started a family of my own, I have come to realize how important it is to treasure every moment with the ones you love. 

My partner Travis would probably say that I take too many photos. I always have my camera or phone in tow, but it's my passion and I love to look back on all of those memories. They bring back the feelings that you'd felt in those captured moments. You can hear the water on the beach, feel sun on your skin, remember that "new baby smell".

Have any questions that you'd like to ask, or want to get to know me more?

Mom life

Highlights

Mom of a toddler, I love spending time with her and our little family. She keeps us all on our toes and gives us new perspectives. Life changed when she came along and I absolutely love it.

Travel

Highlights

I love to travel. There are so many a places on my bucket list. Now that I have a little of my own it's so fun to see new places through her eyes. One of our favorites - and most-visited - Baja. While we live in the mountains, we love to play on the beach.

Rennovations

I love a good reno project. I've always got something cooking and in the back of my mind. If I'm not busy with family and photography, I'm more than likely workin on a house project or our '96 RV renovation.

PUPS

Some people would call us crazy (myself included), but for a period of time we had a house full of animals including 3 large dogs, a cat and chickens. Do I recommend? No, but they are the best. We generally try to bring them wherever we go, Mexico included. They love the beach almost as much as we do.

I love a chill morning with a chai in hand. Any day that I get to sleep in. Traveling. Sunny days. Hanging with friends and family. Coming in from the rio or slopes and having a G&T. A good dance party. The color blue. I'm an open book, ask me anything :)
