I'm doing more and more senior sessions these days and I'm loving it!
Being able to share the story of all of your hard work over the past few years as you step into this new season of your life is such an honor!
Here is a collection of some of my recent senior sessions!
Parents of seniors...how are we holding up? I'm right there with you!

Senior sessions are so fun. And this one was even more special because this senior is mine!

One of my favorite things to photograph is the very beginning of a love story. 💍

A couple years ago in Hawaii I had the honor of secretly photographing a proposal for a friend. Her soon to be hubby and I conspired about it and then made it happen! It was so beautiful to watch unfold right in front of my eyes.

Moments like that are why I love photographing couples so much.

This summer I already have three weddings lined up at some absolutely beautiful locations, and I’m honestly so excited to celebrate with these couples and capture their days.

If you’re newly engaged (or planning a proposal 👀), just a little reminder that I do photograph weddings, engagement sessions, and proposals.

I still have a few dates open and would absolutely love to tell your story too. ❤️

Send me a message if you’d like to chat about your wedding or engagement session!

Tomorrow is the first round of my fairy sessions and I’m honestly so excited. ✨

I’ve been working on the little details for these. The dresses, the set, the magic touches that make kids feel like they stepped into a storybook for a few minutes.

Watching their faces light up when they see everything is always my favorite part.

I can’t wait to photograph these sweet moments tomorrow. 🌸🧚‍♀️

I’ll definitely be sharing some behind the scenes peeks! And I get to photograph this beauty again! Can't wait!

I've been doing a lot of reflecting on my photography lately.

For the past few years, many of you have known me primarily for bo***ir. Photographing women rediscovering their confidence has been one of the most meaningful parts of my work, and it will always hold a special place in my heart.

if you've been following me for longer than that you'll know that before bo***ir I photographed many other things. And the more I’ve grown as a photographer (and as a woman), the more I’ve realized something…

What I truly love capturing is women in every season of life.

Confidence.
Motherhood.
Maternity.
Families growing and changing.
The quiet, beautiful, messy moments that make up real life.

So you may start to see a little shift here.

Bo***ir isn’t going anywhere but I’m expanding my lens to include more of the stories women live through.

Because at the end of the day, my passion has never just been photography.

It’s always been women and the lives they’re building. 💗

Imagine walking into a softly lit studio filled with flowers and music. 🌷✨

You’re a little nervous.
You brought your black set.
You almost talked yourself out of coming.

We sit in a circle first. We introduce ourselves. We exhale.

Then one by one, the women begin writing words on your skin.

Radiant.
Strong.
Soft.
Magnetic.
Resilient.

Words you would never have chosen for yourself.

You look down and see your body covered in affirmation.

And something shifts.

I photograph you in that exact moment. Not when you’re posing, but when you’re feeling.

Afterward, you answer reflective prompts and I create your personalized Mirror Letter — written from your higher self. The version of you who already knows how worthy you are.

This is The Sister Mirror Session.
March 28th.
8 women.
$297.

Early Yes bonus (your Higher Self letter recorded as an audio keepsake) ends March 2nd. 🌸

DM MIRROR if this feels like something your heart needs. 💖✨

Have you ever looked in the mirror and wished you could see yourself the way other women do? 🌸

Not filtered.
Not posing.
Not trying to fix something.

Just… seen.

I’m creating something deeply intentional for 8 women on March 28th.

It’s called The Sister Mirror Session — an intimate empowerment workshop where we gather in a circle, write words of affirmation on each other’s skin, and photograph the moment you finally see yourself differently.

You’ll leave with:
✨ A portrait of yourself covered in empowering words
✨ A personalized Mirror Letter written from your higher self
✨ And if you book before March 2nd, an audio recording of that letter to keep forever

This isn’t about having a certain body.
It’s about being witnessed.

8 women.
One Saturday.
March 28th.
$297.

DM me MIRROR so you can finally see yourself the way others already do — without waiting until you feel “ready.” 💖✨

I’ve had a few moms say March 21 doesn’t work for my Fairy Sessions for them because they are out of town or just not available. 🤍🌸

Because of that, I’m considering opening ONE additional Little Wildflower Fairy date on March 29.

If March 29 would work better for you, comment ‘29’ below ✨”

02/22/2026

March 21 is going to be such a sweet little afternoon ❤️

Two little wildflowers are already on the calendar and I'm counting down the days to crown them!

If you've been thinking about it, the fairy bonus (2 extra images + a keepsake album) ends tomorrow Sunday at 7pm ✨

After that sessions remain available but that bonus disappears.
