The chaos of today will be one of your favorite memories.
i’m so happy you’re here!
LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF
I am a homeschooling mama to three beautiful souls. They are wild and adventurous and really are my favorite people. We have so much fun together and there’s no one I’d rather spend my days with. The start of motherhood for me was also the start of my photography journey!
My littles are my inspiration and the drive behind my art. I want to capture your families love and connection in the exact way that I want mine captured. I photograph with my heart and my hope is that seeing your own story through my lens reveals how honest and passionate the love of your family really is.
I’m not just snapping photos
It means the world to me that you want me to document your family. I pour my heart into my sessions and I want to capture your family as true and honest as you’ll allow. I want you to have heartfelt art that brings you back to this exact moment in your life. I’m not just snapping photos, I’m intentionally capturing your families love story.
It’s your new favorite memory
I want today to be a memory that you never forget. I focus on capturing the fun, the chaos, and all of the in-between. It might be a session full of sweet moments with laughter and cuddles, or it might be beautiful chaos with big feelings, and that’s the beauty of documenting this exact season of your life.
I care about your family and I’m truly honored that you’ve chosen me.
We’ll chat a lot between booking your session to meeting you in person, and I feel like I get to know my families very well. I care about what your kids are interested in and what makes them laugh. I understand the way you want your family documented and the sweet moments you never want to forget. I see you when you tell me that you’re rarely in photos and this session is really special to you. You’ll never look back and regret being in photos with your children.

tips to a successful
Family Session
01.
Take advantage of my client closet
for mamas + littles
I’ve taken the stress out of wardrobe planning by creating a beautifully curated client closet for my clients to wear during their session with me. I can bring multiple dresses along to your session to ensure you find your perfect fit. Not only does my closet save you the stress of trying to find the perfect piece, it saves you from purchasing a beautiful hand made dress for $400+. You are welcome to dress as many family members as you can from my closet.
I style families all. the. time. What most mamas find stressful, I really enjoy! I’d be thrilled to style your entire family for you and send you links to purchase within your budget! Your styling will be timeless to match my photography and editing style.
When styling yourself, say yes to full length dresses with movement, flat shoes, earthy tones, simple jewelry, and wavy hair. Say no to dresses that are fitted or shorter than a midi, any shoes with a heel, pinks and blues, hair up, and tight curls for the girls.

Happy vibes only
Let the little things go
Say no to micromanaging little ones during your session with me. We’ll follow their lead and redirect when we can, but scolding or discipling takes the fun out of the session. It’s in your hands to allow the magic of your family to unfold.
Embrace the chaos and let things happen naturally. There’s a 100% chance that things won’t go exactly as planned. The kids might cry, run away, fall in the dirt, get wet, or have a full blown meltdown. Trust me when I tell you that photographing little ones is my jam and I promise we are still getting incredible photos, so never stress or apologize for your kids. Just remember to smile and laugh through the chaos. There’s a good chance that I’m still capturing beautiful moments (even though you don’t see it). You will love your photos (and the memory) so much more if you make the most of every moment.

Prepare your family to slow down and be in the moment
get readt for a fun family adventure
When Dad’s show up to a photoshoot, they almost always want to look at the camera and smile (and they try to get the kids to do the same), so preparing your family for a care-free documentary session is very beneficial. We won’t be moving quickly through poses, but instead we will slow down, adventure, and be vulnerable. Breathe your children in, touch their hair, and fall into this moment with them. Engage your kids by asking them questions, telling stories and jokes, twirling, and dancing.
STYLING YOUR FAMILY HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER!
I’ve taken the stress out of wardrobe planning by creating a beautifully curated client closet for my clients to wear during their session with me. Not only does my closet save you the stress of trying to find the perfect piece, it saves you from purchasing a new dress!
THE BOOKING PROCESS
01.
Let’s get to know each other!
Booking your session + getting personal
When you’re ready to book your session, connect with me through the form on my contact page to start chatting via email! We’ll discuss in detail what your dream session looks like, who’s included in your family, and the beautiful locations where your session can take place!
To secure your date on my calendar, a retainer of $600 and a signed contract is required. Your date is held for you only, and I take on a very limited number of sessions per month to give you the very best service and flexibility possible.
We’ll chat a lot between booking your session to meeting you in person, and I feel like I get to know my families very well! I care about what your kids are interested in and what makes them laugh, and I’ll send you out a questionnaire before your session that covers all of those little (but so important) details. What most mamas find stressful about styling, I really enjoy! I’d be thrilled to style your entire family for you! I’ll send you links to purchase within your budget, or pull pieces from my client closet! Your styling will be timeless to match my photography and editing style.

We’ll arrive at our location anywhere from 1 to 2 hours before sunset to capture your family until the golden light fades away. I am here to document your family for who you are in this exact moment. We won’t be moving quickly through poses, but instead we will slow down, adventure, and be vulnerable. Breathe your children in, touch their hair, and fall into this moment with them. We will play, laugh, and dance the night away, and it’s going to be one of your favorite memories.
