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.

maternity/ newborns
Having welcomed three babies of my own, I completely understand the rollercoaster of the bump-to-baby journey. My goal is to capture the heartwarming moments of this time without adding any extra stress to your life. I have a wardrobe full of beautiful dresses for every stage of motherhood, so you’ll look and feel your best. I also have a wide variety of newborn and children's clothing - so you will save all the time, energy and money using my client closet! I have sizes from 0-9 years old. My women's items range from XS-XL.
Whether you choose the cozy vibe of your home, the elegance of my studio, or the natural beauty of the outdoors, I offer a variety of settings to beautifully document your growing family. Plus, I have custom photo packages designed to perfectly capture this special chapter in your life.
I CAN'T IMAGINE MORE INCREDIBLE PHOTOS. I TEAR UP EVERY TIME I SEE THEM.

families
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 a decade 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 together and enjoy eachother!

is a petite session right for me?
If you have little kids, it may seem less time is better so they don't have to listen or behave as long, right? Actually, wrong. The more time we have, the better. Kids need time to warm up to me, play and have snack breaks, explore and to get the most possible candid reactions. When time is limited, it can be more stressful to get the picture you want and kids may not warm up before the 20 minute session is over. Keep this in mind when booking!
