A morning at home. An afternoon at the park. A walk around the block.
Whatever your family does, I show up and become the friend with a camera.
My clients tell me they feel totally at ease around me and the pictures they get back are full of the emotion and connection of the moment that was captured.
Normal day or special day, making dinner or playing. I'm there to catch the stuff you can never quite can with your phone.
And the best part? You are in those moments too.
I'm the one behind the camera capturing the things you want to remember forever.
By the end of your session, we can spend 15-20 minutes creating a family portrait that actually feels like you.
When you look at the pictures, I want you to be transported right back to that moment, that connection.
"WITH HER DELICACY AND SENSITIVITY, SHE CAPTURED THE MOST INCREDIBLE, SPONTANEOUS MOMENTS. I'M ETERNALLY GRATEFUL FOR HER TALENT!"

THE ART OF YOUR LIFE
Your photos deserve better than living on your phone.
After your session, you'll choose how to bring your memories to life. I offer beautiful museum grade print collections, wall art and custom albums.
These are the memories that will be on your walls and your coffee table, get passed around at family dinners, and eventually belong to your children.
PRINTS MATTER
Digital files get lost. Phones break. Hard drives crash. But prints last forever.
Your kids won't scroll through your phone in 20 years looking for memories.
They'll pull out photo albums. They'll run their fingers over the pages and ask you to tell the stories again.
These aren't just photos. They're the visual history of your family. The proof that this beautiful, messy life happened.
The memories your kids will treasure long after you're gone.

FAQs
How do I know a documentary family photography session is right for my family? If you break out in hives thinking about posed family shoots, this is for you. If the stress of getting everyone ready for photos makes you want to hide, I'm your person. I capture real portraits of your real family. Pictures that remind you how life felt at this time, not some filtered Instagram version.
How long do sessions typically last? Sessions run 3 to 3.5 hours. This gives everyone time to get used to me and forget about my camera. It really happens! This helps everyone relax so I can capture the moments you want to keep.
Do I need to deep clean my house before you come? Don't worry about it. I also have messy floors, toys everywhere, and piles of laundry. These details tell your story at this moment in time. It won't always be like this. If cleaning makes you feel better, go ahead. But as a mom, I'm not fazed by mess. As a photographer, I can work around any background and still take great pictures.
