The most fashionable child that I know
Of all of the people in the world, I happened to meet one with a love and passion for photography and captured memories of her children that equals my own. Saylor Grace, along with her brothers and cousins, is my most photographed cherub in my life (next to her bff Hazel). It may take you a while, but enjoy the life of SG and her peeps.
Our Personal ray of sunshine
Hazel is used to being in front of a camera. She's been captivating, enchanting, magical and just down right perfect to photograph since the moment she entered this world. Not to sound partial or anything.....but I believe her to be the prettiest little girl I have ever seen in front of my lens.
The story of two sweet sisters...
Hailey and Addy had so much fun dancing in the evening sunlight. These photos are some of my favorites, and I think you can see the girls exact personalities in their looks captured in an instant.
Fun in the Sunflower Fields
Sunflowers
Every year the sunflowers are one of my very favorite sessions. Each year I swear they are getting to be more, and more beautiful to photograph. They joy and energy of these fields seems to be contagious, and I can't wait to get back to them.
The magic of dress up
Couture Gowns
I have enjoyed photographing little girls in couture gowns since 2016. These sessions are some of the most fun and magical sessions year after year. I love working with the gown designers, and planning with the families and most of all dancing with the little princesses.

Lush Green Locations
NC has no lack of stunning locations for sessions. The amount of green, lush, stunning places is astonishing. I say often (having moved here from the desert), I could pull over on any street corner and shoot an entire session. On a daily basis I marvel at how beautiful it is here.

Millstone Creek Orchard
Peach Blossoms
The peach blossoms are so gorgeous, and eye catching every year. The pinks and the setting are peaceful and serene. They have a beauty that speak to me in a perfect way.
NC Wildflower Fields
Wildflower Fields
For years I chased flower fields to the ends of the earth.....not really, just into the depths of the desert. They were so hidden, and took so much time to track down. Since moving to NC I am in full awe of the flowers that pop up in fields left and right. Now, I bask in the glory of these stunning fields, that stretch on for as far as you can see. I'm spoiled rotten by them.

City Kids
Are these kids the most gorgeous city cuties. These kids have so much fun dancing and twirling in the city! Urban couture if I have ever seen it.

I try to share fun things to do in the area, ideas for making life easier, and a good number of clever memes. The group is based in the triangle area of North Carolina, but we welcome moms from all over!

In this group, I will also share portrait sessions, upcoming mini sessions, exclusive sales and limited edition events. I give you early access to book before the masses.
Join Today
Let's get started! I want to know everything.....who's coming for your session? What season of life are you in? Are you looking for newborn, senior, family photos? What makes your family smile and laugh, and what kinds of things do you love to do?
Just send me a message and we'll get rolling. We'll chat about all the things you have envisioned for you photos and get you a spot on my calendar.
1. Say Hello
2. planning your session
Once we get you locked in on my calendar we start our planning. A full guide with location suggestions and ideas for outfits will be emailed to you and we'll begin from there. We'll work together to choose your ideal location, with me guiding you on lighting, time of day and distance from where you live.
Next we'll plan outfits. Now this I adore! I'll give you ideas, send you links, coordinate all the colors, textures and patterns. You can ask me to do it all, or sit back and watch you do your thing!

Really....you can ask me anything throughout our entire experience from first contact to delivery of you final images. I am pretty approachable and easy to get along with. I will do my best to assist and guide you.....you're not alone in this journey!
4. THE PHOTO SESSION
The session date has finally arrived! Yay! Now it's show time. At your session the only goal we have that day is to have fun! This should be a no stress (yes I've had family photos, and know the stress involved in getting out the door that day lol). But you should feel no pressure while we are together. Enjoy your family, allow me to lead you in all the things to make you look your best. And you just come along for the ride. The more fun we have, the more it shows in your gallery. We'll laugh and act silly, play games and wish we had a behind the scenes shot to capture the antics we are up to.
5. Your Photographs
Yay! Your session is done! You can expect your proofing gallery within one week of your session. After wiping the tears away from looking at your gorgeous family, you will select your digital collection package and use your artwork credit to purchase amazing artwork for your walls!
CANDID • CHILDHOOD • captured
The fun of make believe, the dancing in the rain, the perfection that is childhood. That is what we want to emote in your images. You know, that time when they are little enough to dream big, snuggle hard, and feel big things. This is what ignites my passion. You would be hard pressed to find someone who wants to capture that joy and liveliness of childhood like I do. I want to look back and experience it over and over again, and I want you to be able to do the same too!
From active toddlers, to serene seniors, children are what I am passionate about in my images. The magic that lives in the young minds and adventures of children.
CHILDREN ARE THE SPARK THAT IGNITES OUR LIVES. THE REASON WE LOVE WITH HEARTS WIDE OPEN
