I am "a Mom with a camera" on a mission to capture the connection within your family. At my core, I am passionate about capturing the genuine energy that is unique to each of us. Yes, I'll capture that "say cheese" photo for the Christmas cards, but my true passion is capturing photos that are authentic and that  you can feel when viewing your gallery.  I want you to remember how  your Child's head felt while resting on your chest, to remember the feeling of your partners warm embrace,  to remember the sounds of your children's laughter,  and to remember the smell of the soap you used when they were little, all from looking back on your gallery years later. With my photos, you can expect warmth, connection, and love. So, what kind of photographer am I? I would call myself a passionate one. 

There are THREE options for where your session can take place. In studio, in your home, or at an outdoor location of your choice. 

In Studio: My studio is located in Spring City, PA. My studio has two HUGE windows that allow tons of natural light to flow into the studio. This space is specially designed and staged to look like a warm and cozy home. Draped in neutral tones and textures with pops of greens from plants and burnt orange accents. Complete with a bedroom set up, a living room set up, and lots of space to curate the space to fit your session needs! The Studio is open all year round and provides a perfect location for cold and rainy times of year.

​

In Your Home: In home Sessions are special in their own regard because the back drop is the place that is near and dear to your family. Together we will find the areas of your home that provide enough light for photography. Places in the home that I shoot at regularly are the living room, kitchen, master bedroom, bonus room, and nursery. Every home is different and rooms that we can shoot in will depend on natural light!

​

Outdoor Sessions: We will work together to find the perfect location to fit your preference & style. I love shooting at local parks, lakes, mountains, gardens, fields, cities, and more. I also love to shoot at locations that are meaningful to you like the place you had your first date, or your favorite coffee shop. I have a list of locations I shoot at regularly and I am also always open to exploring new locations so, if you have a specific location in mind, I would love to see if its suitable based on light and accessibility! 

Travel up to 60 minutes from Phoenixville, PA is included in all session pricing.

But I will travel anywhere for a beautiful location! Let me know where you would like to go & I will provide travel pricing and details.

I don't love putting a time stamp on my shoots, Why? Because every session is different based on all of the variables that come along with your session. Some sessions with smaller families or couples I can finish in 30 minutes while larger families may take closer to an hour or longer. Some locations are larger taking more time walking in-between promps resulting in longer sessions. Rest assured that regardless of the time it takes I will give you a gallery filled with a variety of poses, backdrops, and groupings. I keep my sessions fast paced to maintain everyones engagement during the shoot and I wont ever end a session based on a set duration of time!

For outdoor sessions I always say that hands down, golden hour is the best time for outdoor photos. This is the hour or so before the sun sets for the evening. This is the only way to get the beautiful golden glow in your images and I CRAVE this light. If you are unable to shoot in the evening, we can also consider an early morning session. Mid day is not a preferable time for outdoor portraits, however not to worry! If your event takes place mid day I am well versed on how to take beautiful portraits in every lighting situation.

If we are shooting in your home or in my studio, we will schedule your session early to mid morning with lighting is best indoors. 

Be prepared to have fun and be silly during your session, and to laugh...a lot! I will have you doing things like tickling you babies, kissing your partner, whispering nonsense into ears, running and dancing around, and making silly faces (ps, I'll be doing it too!). This is how we can capture those genuine laughs and smiles. I will be posing you and queuing you in to provoke the emotions I'd like to bring out in your photographs. I'll also be capturing all of those in between moments like walking during transitions or when your children want to wander off and play so don't be surprised to see me shooting the whole time! My wedding photography style is very much the same! I love to use a mixture of portraiture and documentary style photography to capture your big day. This will give you both the stunning images to hang on your walls along with candid moments that you’ll want to remember of your big day. We will utilize different spaces of the location you choose to get a wide variety of images and keep everyone interested. 

I do offer payment arrangements! You can choose to pay as frequently as monthly or pay in as little as 2 installments. I am flexible to find a payment schedule that fits your needs. Detailed payment options will be discussed during booking!

All payments are made online through your personalized invoice.

What you choose to wear for your photo session will largely impact the final result of your images. My style is very creamy and neutral so I always recommend wearing neutral or earthly color tones as they always photography beautifully, fit my editing style, and flatter all skin tones. However, at the end of the day these photos should represent YOU and your personal style, so wear what you love and what makes you feel confident! I will help you every step of the way leading up to your session & a detailed wardrobe guide is included with every session!

Around Three (standard portrait sessions) - eight (weddings) weeks after your session with me you will receive an email with a link to your own personal gallery as well as a print release. All of your digital images will be in full resolution and completely edited and artistically retouched. You will have the ability to download, save, print, and share your gallery with friends, family, and to social media platforms from one convenient place. I use a professional printing studio to preserve the colors and quality of your images unlike other printing services that alter the photos quality and look. Printing thorough your gallery insures that you honor the integrity of your professional images.

I am proud to say that I carry a full business insurance policy :)

The choice to have your photos shared to social media or not is completely yours! When you receive your contract, you will have the option to accept or decline a model release. This is not required nor will it affect the quality of photography that you receive. I honor and respect your privacy should you choose not to sign a model release! BUT I also LOVE to share your images on social media, so if you accept I will happily share!
