Family

"I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together." Jack Johnson

You love your family, and that is one of the big reasons we capture photos together. Family photos can sometimes be stressful. From picking out your outfits to how your kids will do, I've been there, too, and it can be exhausting! But what I want most of all is to make it fun. I want to capture it all: the smiles, tickles, kisses, the quirks we all have, even the frowns and when your kiddo runs the other direction than the way you told them to go. I'm here for it all.

Children

"The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face." Jack Handey

I had to bring in a little humor, because when you have kids, life just gets funnier (and to be honest, a bit harder). Kids are so wonderful, and they make what I do enjoyable. I don't shy away from making a fool of myself to get kiddos to enjoy their time in front of the camera. I mean, I may just be a little kid at heart.

Siblings

"There may be no relationship...that's closer, finer, harder, sweeter, happier, sadder, more filled with joy or fraught or woe, than the relationship we have with our brothers and sisters." Jeffrey Kluger

The relationship between siblings is so precious. From the kiss on the head to the squeeze that's just a little too tight, I like to capture all the moments that happen in our time together.

Newborn/Maternity

"'Sometimes,' said Pooh, 'the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.'" Winnie the Pooh

Plump cheeks, kissable toes, that newborn smell...your newborn is precious, and this is a special moment to document. I have a more relaxed approach when it comes to photographing newborns. Sessions are typically photographed at the family's house, and I get the everyday moments of you and your baby.

Moments

"Instructions for living a life.
 Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it."
Mary Oliver

My favorite. My bread and butter. What brings joy to my heart. However you want to describe it, catching the moments is what I love. The interaction between mom and son, little fingers and toes, a belly laugh, oh, I love them all! And it is a big part of what I strive to capture during each session.

Portraits/Seniors

"You look good." My 4-yr-old to herself in the mirror every morning.
