understanding my process: honest, relaxed, real

I approach every session with the same intention: to capture your family in a way that feels honest, relaxed, and real. There’s no pressure to perform, just space to be yourselves. Whether that looks like running barefoot in the grass, curling up on the couch, or holding your baby in the stillness of a quiet morning.

I offer a few different session styles, but at the heart of each one is the same purpose: to tell your story.

In-home storytelling sessions are built around your natural rhythm — the slow moments, the tiny rituals, the way your family moves through a space that’s deeply yours. These sessions are ideal for families, newborns, or anyone wanting a deeper documentary feel.

Outdoor sessions are warm, light-filled, and easygoing – perfect for families who want to move, play, and connect in nature. We choose a location together that reflects the mood and season.

Studio sessions offer a calm, minimal backdrop for simple, intimate portraits – just you and your people, captured with intention.

No matter the setting, my process is rooted in trust, comfort, and presence. I’ll guide you when needed, but always leave room for the real moments to unfold. The magic is already there, my job is to help you see it.

I am now booking for Spring & Summer and intentionally take on a limited number of session each season to ensure each family gets the time, care, and artistry they deserve. With two little ones of my own, I know just how quickly these moments slip by, and how deeply they matter.
