Family photos representing

As a mother of two, I have my fair share of documented moments. Now that my family has grown a bit, I often look back at our personal photographs and get in the feels. I melt over the small details like my son’s pudgy fingers, my daughter’s baby curls, and the little ways they used to scrunch their faces.

I hope to provide these feelings for others as well:
Real memories, preserved in artful photographs.

  • Baby Remy, 10 Months old

    Remy’s family invited me to their home to photograph her as a newborn and then again 10 months later. I adore getting to see the littles grow and celebrate milestones alongside their families!

  • A 6th Birthday At Home

    Photographs from the day Perry turned 6. I followed her around her home as she celebrated with her family, capturing colorful and authentic moments from running in the sunshine to blowing out the candles.

“There are no rules in art!”

This is what I preach to my children constantly. My daughter’s art teacher once told her that scribbling isn’t art. I immediately created a portrait of her favorite stuffed animal using only scribbles. Are you interested in thinking outside of the box when it comes to your family photos? Here’s a few activity ideas to include during your session:

  • Apple pie baking and a sink bath for the little

  • Grandma + baby studio portraits

  • Plein air painting

  • Picnic and barefoot splashing in the stream

  • An evening walk in your neighborhood

  • How many scoops can you hold on an ice cream cone?

  • Snow play with food coloring

  • Jumbo sidewalk chalk Candy Land

  • Big science explosions

  • Cardboard house making: holiday theme

Why me?

As the oldest in a big family, I’ve always had a knack for connecting with children, a skill that’s grown alongside my own path into motherhood. This ability to think creatively with kids of different ages brings a special dimension to my photography.

With a candid approach, I’m able to capture families naturally, encouraging true expressions and personalities. The result is timeless, cherished family photographs that tell the stories of connection, love, and life itself – that is what I define as 'documentary style'.
