My passion for photography began in childhood, sparked by family albums and the beautiful way photos could preserve fleeting moments. Growing up, my family welcomed foster children into our home, creating bonds that were as meaningful as they were brief. When those seasons changed, all I had left were photographs and cherished memories. Those images became my comfort, connection, and sense of belonging—a gift I now share with families through my work.

Motherhood deepened my love for photography. Navigating postpartum depression, I found healing in planning shoots for my own children. Capturing their little details gave me purpose and joy, and by the time my third was born, I knew this wasn’t just a passion—it was my calling.

My background as a pediatric massage therapist has given me a unique ability to read a baby’s body language and create a calm, comfortable environment during sessions. From the tiniest newborn stretches to playful toddler giggles, I focus on preserving the details that make your child wonderfully unique.

Let’s create timeless memories you’ll hold close forever.

As a mom myself, I understand the joy, wonder, & occasional chaos of celebrating milestones with little ones.

My goal is to make this experience as seamless & special as possible— so you can focus on soaking in the moment while I capture it.

We’ll start with a personal meeting to design your dream session. This can be done over the phone, but I prefer meeting in your home to walk your walls and envision the perfect gallery together. During this time, we’ll go over every detail—outfits, color schemes, location, and any special requests. I also provide a client wardrobe featuring neutral and earthy tones in sizes newborn to kids’ medium, available for any session.

The session day is where the magic happens! I’ll guide your family through a series of natural prompts to capture your love authentically. Along with planned moments, I adore photographing the tiny, tender details—the wrinkles on a newborn’s back, pouty lips, and tiny fingers and toes that grow all too quickly. My goal is for your session to feel effortless, joyful, and full of warmth.
