Family + Newborn Photography

about My process

in PRAISE OF authenticity

I get it. Choosing a photographer is incredibly difficult. You probably have 457 tabs open right now. You're looking at poses, browsing galleries and Instagram and reading reviews... my goal? Is to make this simple for you, so you know with total clarity if we're the right fit... or not. 

I say that I’m a photographer, because that’s the easiest way to describe my work. But, really, I’m in the business of supporting other entrepreneurs/helping women discover their inner beauty/etc. —and that starts from the very moment you reach out to me.

When I start working with new clients, the process involves planning your session around what YOU expect to get out of the experience.

For me, this is so important because I am here to help and serve you! I love connecting on a deeper level with the amazing people in this community, This is why I really got into this work in the first place—to help real people and create memories you will have for generations to come.

about me

"BEST PHOTOS EVER."

—  Megan

You don’t need to worry about your kids behaving perfectly or your husband posing awkwardly. I don’t do forced smiles or cheesy poses, and nobody will be put on the spot. You don’t have to be super photogenic or fit any particular mold—just be yourselves!

With over 12 years of experience, I’ve seen it all and can handle everything from fussy toddlers to shy kids and teens who’d rather be elsewhere. All I need from you is to show up ready to have fun and enjoy each other!
