My friend, you’re exactly who this is for! You don’t need to know how to pose, or what to do in front of the camera. That’s my job! I’ll give you plenty of direction when you need it, but I’ll also make sure that what is happening ensures the real you comes through— the laughter, the little glances, and the way you naturally love on each other. My goal isn’t to make you look like models. It’s to make you look like you, on your very best day — and give you photos you can’t wait to show everyone you know.
For a one-hour portrait session, you can typically expect 50–75 fully edited images in your final gallery. I’m a big believer in giving you the full story of our time together — not just a handful of perfectly posed shots. Your gallery will include the beautiful portraits you’ll want framed on the wall alongside the laughs, cuddles, personalities, and little in-between moments that make the session yours.
I sure do! While I’m based in Southern California, I’m always open to going somewhere special for your session. Whether you have a favorite family spot, are planning a session while on vacation, or have a location in mind that feels completely you, tell me what you’re dreaming up. Depending on the location, additional travel fees may apply, and we’ll talk through everything before you book — no surprises!
Please don’t stress about this one. Your kids do not need to be perfectly behaved for us to create beautiful photos. Kids are kids. They might need a break. They might get shy, distracted, or decide they have absolutely no interest in the plans — and that’s okay. Some of the sweetest photographs happen when we stop worrying about everyone being “perfect” and let them be themselves. I have plenty of tips and tricks in my bag to make sure they feel safe, happy, excited, and most importantly, have some fun!
My editing style is true-to-life, and timeless — I focus on beautiful lighting to ensure your photos display flattering, natural, gorgeous tones, both rich and soft when it's called for. Whether we’re soaking up golden hour outdoors, sunset at the beach, or tucked beside a softly lit window, I want your images to feel like the moment really did — bright, genuine, and full of life. My goal is to create photographs that feel just as beautiful twenty years from now as they do today, because your memories should never feel tied to a trend.
