hey y'all, i'm Mandi!

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

   I was born and raised in the western way of life in the little town of Bluff Dale, Texas.  I grew up there on our family ranch helping my Dad and Papa feed cows.  My parents love for horses and rodeo didn't fall short with their kids either.  Our family spent lots of miles on the rodeo trail growing up.  This has instilled in me a deep love for our western heritage and what it truly means.

   I have always had some kind of camera in my hand since I was a kid but my love for photography grew even more in 2020 when my husband gifted me my first professional camera.  With a big push from him and my kids, I took a leap of faith and decided to share my love with the world.  I have spent so much time learning and growing from the best of the best in the photography world over the years.  I never would have dreamed I would come this far in my journey.  I'm so excited to share my passion with you guys - reach out and let's capture those special memories for you!

why I do what I do

A LITTLE GLIMPSE INTO MY DAY TO DAY LIFE...

     YES I am a photographer chasing that sunset but my daytime hours are spent working for our family business, Marvel Communications Co. Inc. in Fort Worth, Texas.  Marvel was established in 1982 by my mother & father in-law and has grown and prospered over the years.  We continue to rein as one of the leading communication OEMs for the semi-truck manufacturing industry.
     We also have two very active kids that are heavily involved in sports and they keep mom and dad running most evenings.  If I'm not capturing your beautiful photos, you can find me at a softball field, baseball field or in a basketball gym somewhere.  None of my days would even possible without my families support and the amazing village that is always there to help us make all the dots connect in our crazy lives!
