It’s a Saturday morning at home baking pancakes together, flour covering every surface imaginable, sugar-coated giggles filling the air.
It’s the dimpled hand pressing into your shoulder, blanket tucked underneath the other, as you carry them along on your Sunday adventure.
It’s even the taming of big feelings from little people, the kissing of tear-filled boo-boos, the butterfly kisses, and all of the mundane, yet magical moments in-between.
All of these little moments are woven into the heart and soul of family life. Our shared experience of growing up and belonging together. The kind of memories we’ll reminisce on with graying hair and wrinkled hands, flipping through worn pages of photo albums. The memories that define us to our core, narrate our family stories, and become our living legacy.
As a family photographer, I want to hold space for you to be fully present and witness the sacred beauty that lies within your ordinary days. My heart is in documenting the moments that will take you and your children back to the feeling of this season for years and years to come. You know, that feeling when you catch a glimpse of...
The pride in your husband’s eyes as he holds the new life you created together.
The wonder in your child’s gaze as they watch a bee dance along the flowers.
The reflection of your postpartum body, raw and foreign and deserving of every praise.
We need photographs of our here & now. The beautiful, messy moments woven into our children’s memories. The homes we’ve created & the love overflowing within. Photos that will one day serve as a reminder of how it felt to be loved by you. We get to choose how to honor and preserve their childhood. Let’s create photographs together that genuinely reflect this season of life.
It’s the little, undocumented moments that we’ll want to remember most.
I approach our time together with a deep reverence for the sanctity of motherhood and family life, and aim to honor that through my lens. My passion lies in creating images that exude soulfulness and authenticity, portraying the serene beauty and tender moments of belonging together. Using a blend of film and digital formats, my documentary approach is rooted in a deep love for honest storytelling. I seek to capture the gentle, fleeting moments of everyday life… transforming them into timeless treasures that speak to the love and legacy we create.
My sessions are an invitation to be seen, wholly.
