If I wasn’t afraid of hurting your feelings… 🫣

Kids aren’t the hard ones. They’re kids, chaos is expected, lean into it. The more we try to control, micro manage and direct them, the faster they burn out. And the more stressed everyone gets. Ev. Er. Y. One.

These times together are valuable not because they’re perfect, but because we’re capturing them. Capturing THEM as they are right now at this point in time. Let them hold the rock. It’s inconsequential to us and so important to them. Not worth the fight. Plus their little hands holding it? Very cute.
The perfectly curated outfits might look good but if they don’t feel good, it’ll show in the photos. Fidgeting with a tag, a neckline that slips constantly, it takes time and enjoyment out of the moment. If you feel good in your clothes, you’ll have more fun and that’ll carry over into your imagery. I’ll guide you along the way!

Your only job once we’re together is to have fun. Relax. Play. Enjoy your loved ones as they are right this minute. If they need to play, play, if they need a quiet snuggle, do that. I read the room, direct when needed with prompts that guide moments to unfold. I’ve been doing this for over 13 years and have a few tricks up my sleeve.
I got you 😉
Now chill the F out, let’s have some fun!

Golden summer days are coming our way ☀️

And believe it or not people are starting to secure their fall family spots in preparation for holiday cards!

I know it sounds coocoobananas BUT also is Maycember kicking anyone else’s butt?!

I’ll be out of country for most of July with spotty internet at best, so if you wanna get ahead of the curve pop me an email now and we can chat things out!

Also doesn’t Mac Demarco just *feel* like golden SoCal goodness?! Ugh such a vibe.

M A M A
Today is for you.
Whether your baby is in your heart, your arms, or out of the house - you deserve all the love. Today and every day.
Moms take so many shapes and do so many jobs, many of which are invisible and under appreciated.
I see you.
I feel you.
You are loved.
I hope you’re able to take some you time, get spoiled rotten by your little crew, or do whatever it is that makes your heart happy.
And may someone else wipe the asses and plan the meals! ✨
Today is for us.
Happy Mother’s Day 💕

Mother’s Day is swiftly approaching and I’m getting inquiries about minis.
The short answer is YES I am offering minis!
The long answer is … they’re a little different than usual 😉

They’re elevated
They’re chic
They’re a little sweet
And a little spicy
These are FOR you, mama. Not the kiddos. Not the grandparents.
You.
Embrace your inner self, it’s time to let her shine, step into the light and come play!

When’s the last time you treated yourself to something that pushed you outside your comfort zone a little but when you were there you laughed, felt so good and strong in your body and after felt like you could take on the world?
Because that’s exactly what you’ll get from a bo***ir session with me.
Some glam time, sipping bubbles, getting dressed up in whatever has you feeling your best and then we play in the beautiful light for a bit, laugh, toss your hair around, embrace your curves. And then you’ll receive a gorgeous, curated gallery of images of this absolute BABE you maybe forgot lives inside you. She’s beautiful, smart, sexy and SO much more than a mom/spouse/responsible adult.
She’s fun and cheeky and she deserves to come out and play!
If this sounds like something you or a special person in your life would enjoy and could use a little teaspoon of sugar to help the medicine go down (aka get through another day of this hellish newsscape) CLICK THE LINK up there, it has allll the info and can take you to booking when you’re ready!
Feel free to email me if you want to chat, happy to share info there, too.
I look forward to seeing you 😘
