When you invest in a session, whether it's for couple, maternity, newborn, seniors, or family you're choosing to pause time that would otherwise slip by too quickly. These aren't just photos for a frame or social media; they're a way to remember the way your baby fit in your arms, the joy of a graduating senior on the edge of new beginnings, or the little in-between moments of laughter and love that define your family. I put my heart into making your session feel comfortable, fun, and true to you, because I believe these images should tell your story in the most genuine way. Long after the day is over, your photos will be the treasures you return to, the ones you'll share, pass down, and look back on with full hearts.

Add-Ons
 
External Hard Drive
Starting at $160
Keeping your images on an external flash drive is one of the safest and most convenient ways to preserve your memories. Unlike online galleries that may expire, a flash drive gives you a physical copy you can access anytime without relying on the internet or logins. It’s portable, easy to store, and ensures your photos are backed up in a secure, lasting format, so you’ll always have your images ready to enjoy and share for years to come.
With this add-on, you’ll receive a custom flash drive containing all of your photos for easy access and safekeeping.
props
Want to make your session feel uniquely you? You can add props to bring your story to life. From styled setups like wicker chairs, florals, and picnic arrangements, to personal touches like hobbies, vehicles, or even pets, props help transform your session into something memorable, personalized, and fun. Together, we’ll plan the details so your gallery feels one-of-a-kind.
Props vary in price.
