I get it, you have a lot on your plate and the thought of planning a photo session is overwhelming. What if I told you all you had to do was pick a session date and leave the rest to me? From planning outfits, to creating a memorable session experience, getting keepsake products in your hands without you doing a thing? Sounds like what every mama needs.

TIME AND PHOTOS OF MY LITTLES... THE TWO THINGS I VALUE MOST AS A MAMA. LET ME TAKE care of all the details so you can keep that time to be with your littles.

A session THAT IS PERFECT FOR YOU

01. maternity

A SESSION THAT IS PERFECT FOR YOU:

The moment you have been dreaming of and praying for is here - it's the beginning of it all. Whether this is your first time being called "mama" or your fourth - these are the moments we want to remember forever. We will capture the true miracle that is growing inside of you and the way your eyes share the joy of your heart. Maternity session are captured around 28-34 weeks.

02. newborn

You've heard it a million times before - it goes by in the blink of an eye. All those details you can't get enough of soon become a distant memory that you can no longer remember. We will photograph all the moments that make up your first days with your baby so those memories are never lost upon you. Newborn sessions are typically 1-3 weeks after birth. 

03. family

All those moments - those little moments - quickly add to weeks, then months, then years, and all we are left with are memories. While memories fade, photographs last forever - they are the pieces of our everyday truths that we can physically hold in our hands. Our time together will be spent doing some of your family's favorite things and being who you are together naturally.

04. MILESTONE

As a mother of three myself, I know all to well that a baby's first year is a year of so much change and those changes happen faster than we want and can remember. Milestone sessions are a way to bottle up those changes forever. These session typically are captured at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 1 year.
