    Every client also receives a style guide tailored to their session in their welcome email after booking.

  • I've been a professional photographer since 2009. I'm also the mother to two girls under the age of eight. There is no situation that I haven’t encountered before. My experience with newborns, toddlers and kids means that I can work quickly and efficiently while keeping it fun. I believe that photo sessions should be a joyful time for family bonding, not a chore. And I am confident in my ability to make that happen. I promise!

  • My photo sessions are designed to be easy. My entire workflow has been designed with you and your busy life in mind. Galleries for Holiday Mini Sessions will be available for viewing within one week of your session date.

    All clients will be able to preview their images through a beautiful gallery for thirty days.

    Any digital downloads that are part of your purchase will be available through your gallery.

  • I describe my style of shooting as a mix between classic and lifestyle - I pose my clients for certain shots and then get those in-between, candid lifestyle type shots when you are interacting with your loved ones. I help you with posing whenever needed (where to stand, placement of hands, angle adjustments for your head/shoulders). I will give you direction whenever needed. For babies, my style is to leave a portion of my session for swaddled shots and any shots where you might want to have your baby in a specific outfit. For baby details (eye lashes, fingers, toes, lips), your baby can wear a diaper (with diaper cover).

    My editing style is light and airy with skin softening and saturation adjustment applied as needed.
