I grew up in Richardson, Texas. In high school I was on Drill Team and I was very involved in Theatre. I have been taking pictures all my life! I began professionally at the age of 19. Although, I still don't call myself professional. ;) I worked for PCA Portraits, then worked my way up to Glamour Shots. I absolutely loved these two experiences!! After serving an 18 month mission in San Francisco for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I attended Brigham Young University-Idaho to pursue my love of photography. Up there in Idaho is where I found another love of my life, Kristofer. Kristofer is From Kent, Washington. We met in the Fall of 2006, dated, then were engaged on March 18, 2007, then married for time and all eternity in the Manti Utah Temple August 24, 2007. We both just graduated July 23, 2009! We were also blessed with our first baby girl that day! And our second daughter joined our family February 2012. YAY! Life really couldn't be any better! We are currently life in the Springfield, Missouri area. I am building my photography studio. I have a small studio in the home right now. Here is my website Hayashi Photography. Being at home with my babies and being able to work, what more could I ask for? I love being a wife and mother. Nothing gives me more joy than those, but I do love sharing my talents with others.
