‼️ PSA - PLEASE READ ‼️
Important Update Regarding Client Privacy and Image Usage- As of August 2026, a federal appeals court ruled that the first amendment protects the private, in home possession of AI generated child sexual abuse images that do not feature real children. This is incredibly concerning, especially with how easily real photos can potentially be manipulated using AI.
To ensure the highest standard of privacy and safety for the families I work with, I am updating my social media policy. Effective today, I am removing previous posts that feature identifying images of children, and going forward, I will no longer share identifying photos of minors on my public page.
Recent legal rulings regarding AI-generated media highlight growing concerns over how images can be digitally manipulated. While I love capturing precious family moments, protecting the privacy and security of your children will always be my absolute top priority.
What this means for you:
📸Family sessions are fully active: I continue to offer and welcome family photo sessions.
📸 Photos identifying children remain private: Delivered galleries will be for your private enjoyment only and will not be posted publicly by my business.
Thank you for your trust, understanding, and ongoing support! ❤️
