My home is currently in Southeast Missouri, but my heart also lies where I was born and raised in Southeast Louisiana. I'm a cajun girl at heart who loves a good family crawfish boil and delicious king cake. I am also a wife, mom, and crazy cat lady who absolutely loves spontaneous adventures and taking pretty pictures!
 
Your memories deserve the best quality, care, and attention. I strive to look through my lens and capture memories for my clients as if they were my own photos. Your memories are beautiful and the photographs you have to look back on them should be as well!

MyFamily

meet

the troutt trio

I am married to my wonderful husband, Justin. We have one beautiful little red-head daughter, Emileigh! I love our trio so much and I wouldn't have it any other way! So many have asked if we planned on having any more children in the future. We always say that we are content with one and I love it! Now if you ask me if I want more cats, well.... that would be a different story!
