Family Studio Portrait Photography

The love between this mother and daughter resonates deeply, mirroring the strength of their individual characters. Each of these remarkable women has given unwavering love and support not only to their own families but also to their friends and communities. To have witnessed this in front of my lens was a gift. Thank you

Family Studio portrait photography

Photographing this delightful family has been my pleasure and privilege for the last three years.  Not only have I watched Ava and Emily grow, but I have also gotten to know their little (and big) personalities.  While our first two years saw us exploring the outdoors, this year we decided to do something different. We […]

March 26, 2024

Exploring Lu’s many curiosities was a wonderful adventure! From the cerebral spinning of the pottery wheel in a cramped and dark basement to creative makeup and lighting. This is what I love most about high school senior photography sessions, they are as unique as the seniors. Exploring not only hobbies, and passions but allowing the […]

Boys!  I have 4 of them, 5 if you count my favorite sheepadoodle and 6 if you include my favorite and only husband!

Christopher high school senior in studio fine art photography session

High school senior sessions are one of my favorites.  It must be because I get the opportunity to meet young adults who are on the cusp of new adventures, and I love adventure. I love watching them open up as the session progresses.  In the first few minutes, it is always a little awkward.  In […]

christmas tree in Setif Algeria, 1984
