Whatever season of life you're in deserves to be captured by something other than your iPhone. No matter the size or nature of your family. Whether your babies are big or small or fury. You will never regret having preserved these fleeting days with meaningful, tangible images that contribute to your legacy of love. Whether you're looking for just a handful of images to hang on the wall or send as a gift or an entire afternoon captured and preserved in a beautiful heirloom book. I am ready to love these moments with you.
A photograph is powerful enough to slow time, to bring you back to a moment that passed all too quickly. When I look at images of my own children as babies, I feel their pudgy little thighs resting against my ribs as I held them in my arms and the fluff of their bulky cloth diapers under their wobbly, but substantial, little bodies. Their soft, bouncy cheeks are beneath my liberal kisses once more and I know, for another moment, their pure, unabashed joy as they ran through that field. The sun rays that dressed their shoulders warms me once again, as your photos will warm your heart.

Inquire
The sooner the better - especially if you're hoping for a Spring or Fall Date. I recommend one to two seasons in advance.
To reserve your date, we'll need a contract as well as a deposit. If something comes up and you need to change your date, just let me know. I'm a mom too, I get it.
NEXT QUESTION
How far in advance should we book?
frequently asked questions
Whether you're going for fun or formal, wear something you LOVE, that you feel like yourself in and that fits you properly. If you've thrown all your clothes onto the bed, tried them on multiple times (with and without accessories) and still don't know what to wear - do not fret, I'm happy to help.
NEXT QUESTION
What should we wear?
frequently asked questions
Don't worry - almost everyone feels uncomfortable and awkward in front of the camera at first. After 15 years of taking photographs, I still feel a little goofy on the other side of the lens.
Throughout the session you'll be thoughtfully posed and prompted to keep things looking and feeling natural and fun. Don't worry about your kids, movement brings life to your images! I have three of my own and am fully prepared to chase the busiest of little ones.
NEXT QUESTION
We're awkward and my kids don't sit still.
frequently asked questions
No one wants to look like a hot mess in their photos so if inclement weather is unavoidable and an indoor backup unavailable, I'll be in touch via email or phone to reschedule. It can be fun to get wet + a light sprinkle can make for some special photos...just sayin'!
NEXT QUESTION
what do we do if it rains?
frequently asked questions
Within a few weeks of your session, you'll receive a link to a digital gallery that will allow you to download high resolution images.
You'll be able to order prints and albums directly through the gallery store. Nothing will delight you more than to see your images in print where you and your family can enjoy them daily.

Sydney & Steven
One of my all time favorite places to shoot is at the Park at the Capitol Building in Baton Rouge. It is a rare thing to find a well kept, landscaped area that is free from crowds on the weekends. The light can not be beat and the park is just steps away from the Mississippi River, another beautiful location for shots. Sydney and Steven were a delight to photograph - in love, and quick to smile with one another.

Fall Family Photos
The morning started off very cloudy and damp. I don't ever mind shooting in overcast weather because the lighting is so smooth. It was still a pleasant surprise when the sun decided to peak out a bit. The damp ground really lit up and all the trees were wonderfully dark from the light rain. I love this little family so much! I have been working with them since Stacy and Quad were married.
