There’s something so special about those first few weeks with a newborn—soft, sleepy snuggles and the gentle rhythm of getting to know one another. It’s a season that often feels like a blur of emotions and learning curves, as new parents step into their roles and begin to care for a little one who depends […]

It’s not every day I have the joy of photographing a poodle as charming as Oliver. He came in to celebrate his very first birthday, and he couldn’t have been more delightful—pure puppy energy, full of curiosity, tail wags, and sweet kisses. We kept the setup simple to let Oliver’s personality take center stage. Of […]

It was such a treat having Anais and her daughter in the studio a few weeks ago. They hadn’t taken professional photographs together in several years and we all know, babies don’t keep. Anais booked one of my Mommy + Me Petite Studio Sessions and they made a day of it and drove from Fort […]

Front Porch Sessions continue! Thank you so much Hart family for letting me safely photograph you during our time of pandemic & social distancing. I cannot believe Zach is so tall, I remember him at his 7 year old self from coaching him in swim practice & Addy, small in stature big in heart. You […]
