FAMILIES & NEWBORN SESSIONS
I’m a lifestyle photographer passionate about capturing real moments and genuine connections in beautifully composed images.
I offer photography for couples, families in every stage of life, and businesses & brands, creating timeless imagery that feels natural, effortless, and full of life.
NATURAL, CONNECTED PHOTOGRAPHY
AM I THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHER FOR YOU?
My style leans on natural movement, play, and connection. We’ll always capture a few posed images, but the magic of your session with me comes from the authentic moments in between.
Capturing families year after year is truly a joy. As a mom of two, I understand firsthand the value of photography, preserving the genuine love of a family and the essence of life as it is today, knowing how quickly it all changes.

SIGNATURE SESSION
A signature session is a slower experience designed to feel more like a memory than a photoshoot.
We’ll move at a natural pace. I’ll guide you gently, but what I’m really after is the good stuff: movement, emotion, light, laughter, quiet. It's also the ideal choice for newborns who simply cannot be rushed and extended families to allow every family units story to be captured.

FAQ
How many images do I get?
I don't put a cap on the number of images available for you to download within your gallery. What is listed is a minimum number of images to expect and I often deliver much more! I do this because I believe that some of the silly or in-between moments are some of the images you will love the most one day in the future and I don't want you to pick and choose between a smiling one and an image for the memory!
What is a preventable distraction?
A preventable distraction is something that could have been prevented before the session began. Examples include: Hair ties, smart watches, tan lines, items in pockets, sunglass lines. I do include editing of stray hairs, the occasional booger, blemishes, etc. when I see them as they cannot be prevented.
WHAT IS YOUR TURNAROUND TIME?
I promise a 2 week turnaround of images. I always strive to deliver faster than my guarantee however, I keep my guarantee at 2 weeks is to allow myself grace during peak seasons of photography and life as a mom.
WEATHER, ILLNESSES & LIFE
There are some things out of control like weather, germs and unexpected life. For inclement weather, we will work together to reschedule for an agreed upon time or decide to go for it. It's important to know that many people are drawn to my portfolio for the glow which isn't possible without any sun and if that is important to you, rescheduling is important. If someone falls sick or life otherwise surprises, rescheduling is an option. In all cases, rescheduling options may be limited and your ideal date/time may not be available.

PLANNING INFO
LOCATION PLANNING
BEST TIMING FOR LIGHT
This can be a very personal decision and I think it ultimately comes down to what feels best to tell your story and where will the light be best.
In Studio is great for even, natural-light with neutral backdrops (or dreamy custom backdrops) and limiting outdoor elements.
On-Location I love the glowy, natural light of an outdoor location but there are elements to consider like weather and sand.
At-Home If you’re looking for a more personal, intimate feel, at-home sessions allow us to capture you in your most comfortable space, surrounded by the rooms, details, and sentimental elements that tell your story.
TIMING & LIGHTING
CHOOSING THE BEST LOCATION
For outdoor locations, like the beach, the best time of day is an hour before sunset or the hour after sunrise. This golden hour light is the yummy, glowy light you're often drawn to in my portfolio!
For more shaded locations like parks, any time of day will usually work and is a more flexible options for busy families.
For indoor locations I typically find the best lighting typically to be from early morning to late afternoon but depends on the specific location.
MATERNITY & NEWBORN
MATERNITY & NEWBORN SCHEDULING
For maternity sessions I usually recommend scheduling sessions 28-34 weeks when your bump is nice and bumpin' and you're still fairly comfortable. This is totally a personal choice and I have done earlier and later (even up to 38 weeks!).
When booking newborn sessions I reserve your due date on my calendar as it's hard to know exactly when they will arrive! Once they are born, you message me and we together we find a time 1-4 weeks after birth. If you want them tinier, sleepier and scrunchier then I recommend within the first two weeks. If you want them a little more alert and a little more time to settle, I recommend about 2-4 weeks. It's really a personal choice!
