I swear every time the trees start turning green again, a little piece of me comes back to life 🌿

I’ve been itching to get back outside, chase that golden light, and start creating again. So I’m doing something a little fun…

I’m opening up a few portfolio sessions at 50% off to bring some new ideas to life ✨

I’m looking for:
— 1 couple
— 1 family
— 1 maternity (couple or family)

All sessions will be outdoors at golden hour 🌅
Think: picnic dates, ice cream runs, nature walks… soft, candid, connected moments. I also have a few creative concepts I’ve been dying to try.

If this feels like your vibe, message me 🤍

Also… I’m working on a referral program (for both new and returning clients 👀) so keep an eye out for that soon.

I’m really excited to be back creating again, and I can’t wait to capture all your beautiful moments this year! 😊

The absolute best adventure ever awaits my two favorite people, I am so excited to watch you two become parents.

We will also never talk about how much I cried editing these.

The best part of being a photographer is seeing an idea and being able to do it, so here's my backyard back to school photos for Lucas who's about go into the 3rd grade! It's not often I get pictures of him actually smiling so enjoy 🤍

I did post a story asking if anyone would be interested in back to school photos, so let me know if you'd be interested and I'll set something up, I prefer these over school pictures anyway.
