My photography business grew from a desire to learn how to take professional portraits of my kids, while also capturing the cute and sweet moments of their childhood. Their portraits and candid images are such a treasure to me now which is why my photography style has evolved into what it is today - family portraits with candid moments mixed in to capture personalities and family relationships

Home is Where Your Heart and Best Smile Live

There’s something really magical about being photographed in your own home. It’s where your baby took their first steps. Where your toddler leaves behind sticky fingerprints on the fridge. Where your dog curls up on the couch even though they’re technically not supposed to. Home is where real life happens — and that’s exactly what I love to capture. Why schedule your next photography session at home? Because, home is where your heart and your best smile live!

When you choose to have your session at home, you’re not just getting beautiful photos. You’re getting a story. One filled with your family’s authentic love, laughter, and those quirky, everyday moments that are so easy to forget (but so worth remembering).

And let’s be honest… it’s just plain comfortable.

No packing bags, no loading up the kids, no hoping the weather plays nice. You don’t have to stress about forgotten snacks or last-minute outfit changes. Need to nurse the baby or change a diaper mid-session? You’re already in your safe space. Want to do barefoot photos in the living room or let the kids jump on the bed? I love that. It’s your home. Let it shine.

These sessions are beautifully relaxed. There’s no pressure to “perform” for the camera. It’s just you being you — and that’s when the magic really happens.


Quick Tip for Your At-Home Session: How to Sit in Style

When you’re sitting for a photo — whether it’s on your cozy couch, a window seat, or the edge of your bed — here’s a simple posing trick that flatters everyone:

Lean slightly onto one cheek.

Yep, just a little shift of your weight creates a subtle angle that adds shape and softens your posture. It opens up your body just enough to bring that natural, relaxed look we’re always going for. Bonus? It makes your face and shoulders look more defined without you even trying.

So next time you’re sitting down during your session, think gentle lean + soft smile = total magic.


So if you’ve been dreaming about a session that feels cozy, natural, and 100% you — let’s bring the beauty of your everyday life into focus, right where it happens.

At home.

Let’s capture it together.
