quick facts about me
- #tacotuesday should be #tacoseveryday - I LOVE a good authentic street taco (or 10) with extra lime & cilantro!
-I am a total sucker for an oat milk latte with a just a touch of real honey.
Decaf after noon 😉
-I love few things more than a day outside in the sun. Warm weather baby 100%
favorite things
Sydne's
- The need to eat healthy met my obsession with pastries, and my love of baking was born. Six pies per holiday is a standard in my house -- all made gluten free, dairy free, and sweetened with dates, honey, agave, or maple.
- We LOVE Coconut Bliss Ice cream - in particular, their salted caramel. You can thank me later ;)
- You can catch me adding Franks or Cholula to just about every meal.
sweet and spicy
Did somebody say snacks?
-I knew my career would be dedicated to empowering women in 2017. What I hadn't anticipated was following my long-standing dream of becoming a published author. Enter, my first spicy romance book, and the rest is history.
I'm now a spicy contemporary and fantasy romance author, with six books published across three series. One epic romantic fantasy series called Grayshell Rising, and two connected contemporary series, Nomadic Rhodes, and The Hearts Of Emerald Bay.

From bombshells
I fell in love with the power of the lens at age 12... And then my mom - my own Lorelai Gilmore - got sick when I was fresh out of high school. She fought for two and a half brutal years, but unfortunately passed away when I was twenty.
I have no professional portraits of my mom. None. (I mean, not unless you count family photos at JC Penny).
Women are so busy taking care of everyone and everything else, it's too easy to scoot behind the camera and hide. But every woman deserves to exist in portraits. Every loved one deserves something beautiful to cherish.

places to visit
My favorite
The days are sunny and 80, evenings filled with neighborhood barbecues, bounce houses for the kids, games and laughter.
Fresh mangoes, melon and local berries. Oversized salads, late night stops at the taco truck, and iced coffee on the greenbelt.
Weekends spent at weddings & on sessions with the most beautiful light of the year.
Doesn't get better than that!
is summer
my favorite season
- I married my high school sweetheart, and he is my very best friend. We do practically everything together. He's my favorite human.
-Seeing new things is my favorite part of life, but I hate the process of traveling. 🧳 ✈️
- I'm a huge Boise State Football girl. I've been watching games my entire life and will pace and shout like a lunatic during a real dogfight. 🏈
-Books, books, books, books. If I'm not behind my camera, or hanging with my family, I'm writing or reading 99% of the time.
- I'm an asthmatic gym rat, which is just as frustrating and contradictory as it sounds. 🧘♀️🏃♀️
