how I approach my work
From the moment you reach out, I’m learning about your unique story. You and your family are at the heart of every session - I aim to find a quiet place and create a calm setting during every session, as we take your child’s lead and allow space for moments to naturally unfold. We will plan a meaningful session for you to create new memories with your family, as I capture the details you want to remember, that express the way you feel in this season.
Intimate details. honest moments.
The way your newborns wispy hair falls as she nurses, your little ones running through fields of grass, your partner looking into your eyes as you tie your son’s shoe, your daughter braiding your hair as your baby reaches out to be picked up, exploring new places with your family + taking the moments in together.
what I offer my families
Your experience is just as important to me as your photos. I scout perfect locations that offers beautiful scenery to fits your needs. I’m happy to be there every step of the way to help plan your session! My focus during sessions is always on human connection and the genuine moments that happen when you forget for just a second that the camera is there and just BE as a family. I’m always searching for those in-between moments where you are most truly yourselves. Waiting patiently for the moments that MATTER… The ones that tell your story, right now, at this specific point in time. Your love inspires me. Bring me your real, your unique, your connection and I'll do the rest. Let the kids be kids and just relax. Loosen up and be yourselves. Every special time in your life should be embraced and celebrated.
Every session is client led, there is no heavy posing, however there is strong encouragement to be present in this time, and to feel the moments you are sharing with your loved ones.
From styling to location and anything in between, I am here to help! What we will create together are the memories that you will want to look at in 10 years and when looking at your photographs, its as if you have entered a time machine and have went back in time to that exact moment.
Let’s make some memories to reminisce on for decades to come!

When Melissa reached out to me through Instagram, I had no idea that her whole family was from Texas. For her Parent’s 30th wedding anniversary, the whole family rented a gorgeous air bnb in Lebanon, Kentucky to spend the week together celebrating.I woke up at 5:30am and drove an hour and 40 minutes to spend the morning with them
