“We cannot stay home all our lives, we must present ourselves to the world and we must look upon it as an adventure.” -Beatrix Potter

Last month I had the honor of photographing the Descombes family at their home. They are about to move out of the country and wanted to remember their time spent together in this place.

It was truly like stepping into a Beatrix Potter book. They had an adorable cottage, a garden abundant with herbs and veggies ( the mint leaves filling the air was my favorite) and a yard full of wild rabbits.

I love sessions where I can capture a family just hanging out at home, in their space, bare feet and all, enjoying a summer evening together.

Wishing this adorable family safe travels and the greatest new adventure!! ✨

🇺🇸Happy Independence Day!! 🇺🇸

Farm Sessions or At Home Sessions are my FAVORITE!! 🌾🛻🌳🏡🐓🚜

This session was in spring of 2023 for clients right down the street!! One of my favorites to date!

I love coming to your place to capture your family when I’m able to!! Your space offers a place for your family to feel comfortable,play and just be together!! We don’t have to worry about a public location where it can often be overly crowded and limited parking. No travel time for you means it takes off the stress of having to get to the destination on time or wait in traffic!! So let me come to you!! Did you know I don’t charge for travel within 40 miles of my home?!

These sessions are also unique to your family, no one will have a “look alike” session!!

I have weeknights available this July and August and limited weekends.

Contact me to book!!🗓️

Hi guys!!

This last year I’ve REALLY slacked being present on socials, but I’m still here!!

In fact, my summer is already booking up so I’m here to let you know my availability!!

For the rest of June, I have 2-3 more week day openings. I’m busy weekends for June.

July and August, I have some weekends open and weeknights are best! I live for golden hour ☀️ (which is about an hour before 🌅 sunset)

September is wide open so far but as the season progresses, can book fast!! So secure your dates!!

As a reminder I specialize in high school seniors, families, lifestyle sessions, fresh 48 sessions, couples and more!! If you have an idea for a session I’d love to hear it!! I have indoor and outdoor packages available!!

I hope to chat with you soon!! ✨

I had a blast doing the photography for this local business!! The kids were great models!!

Be the Village is a local resale/clothing shop with used and new items that gives back a portion of proceeds to help teens who are phasing out of foster care! Owned and operated by a local family who are the sweetest people. I highly recommend checking out their shop! They have something for everyone, babies through teens. You can shop online or in person!
