1. FAMILIES

The first step toward working together is making sure we are a great fit for each other. After receiving your inquiry, I will send over my pricing guide which will break down all of the nitty-gritty of the collection. Then, if you are interested in learning more about the experience, we will schedule a time to chat and I will share a little more about me and the process. If after our chat we both feel that we would make a great match, then we will move on with the booking process!

2. LIFESTYLE

In-home lifestyle sessions are my photography love language. It feels like such a gift to be invited into a client’s home to capture the real, authentic moments that happen when families are most comfortable. It doesn’t matter if you live in a house of glass or a dungeon - don’t worry - I will find the light. I will ask your family to show me the spots in the house where you spend the most time doing the things you love - maybe reading on the couch, snuggling or jumping on mom and dad’s bed, eating donuts around the kitchen counter, or having a dance party. Whatever it is - you do you! I will do my best to play along with your tribe while also staying at a distance so you feel like you can interact authentically.

3. NEWBORNS

My newborn photography style is very lifestyle driven. I am not a photographer who will bend your baby into unnatural poses (not that there’s anything wrong with that….I guess). And mom, dad and the whole family will be involved, rest assured. So if you’re up for working with me and letting go of any post baby image issues (which that struggle is real, believe me I know!), I would cherish the opportunity to meet you. And you must allow me to snuggle your newborn. I promise I will sterilize my hands and wear protective gloves if I have to.

4. MATERNITY

I love capturing beautiful mamas and their baby bumps. I remember having my first maternity session and it felt so surreal after our troubles getting pregnant. I will forever cherish those images of me and my husband on the brink of our parenting adventure. I’ve heard a lot of moms say they wish they would have done some maternity shots. Even if you are swollen and feeling like all you want to do is eat another pint of Ben and Jerry’s, I promise it’s worth the hassle. You are doing an amazing, absolutely beautiful thing by growing a life in your body. Celebrate it!
