I photograph women entrepreneurs, families, and high school seniors—three very different types of sessions, but all connected by one thing: people navigating meaningful seasons of life.

School has just ended, routines have shifted, and suddenly the calendar is filling with camps, vacations, summer jobs, activities, and plans with friends.

We wait all year for summer, imagining slower days and more free time, but then realizing it can be just as full as the rest of the year.

I’m right there with you.

As a mom of two teenage girls, I’m navigating the shift in routine, balancing family life and business, and trying to be intentional about how I spend my time during these these summer days. I want to create memories with my girls, take advantage of the longer days, and make time for the experiences before another school year begins.

I know many of the women I work with are feeling the same thing.

Some are welcoming college students home. Some are sending kids off to camp. Some are balancing family schedules while running businesses of their own. Most of us are simply trying to enjoy this season while keeping all the moving pieces in motion.

I get to work with women entrepreneurs who are building businesses they’re passionate about.

I photograph families taking advantage of warm evenings and long summer light.

And I meet high school seniors who are preparing for a year filled with milestones, celebrations, decisions, and change.

Different stories. Different seasons. But all worth remembering.

How is summer shaping up for you and your family

If you have a junior at home, senior year is probably starting to feel very real.

One of the most common questions I get is: “When should we schedule senior pictures?”

The truth is… there isn’t one perfect answer.
It depends on your senior, their schedule, and the overall feel you want for the session.

But planning a little earlier can make the entire process feel much less stressful.

I put together an article walking through what families should think about before scheduling senior photos…
from timing to seasons to planning the overall experience.

The reminders for senior yearbook photos are starting to come in.

And while schools usually require seniors to use a specific studio for the yearbook image, a full senior session is something completely different.

This is where we create images that feel personal and reflect who they are right now…their personality, style, and this exciting season of life.

When you work with me, you’re not just another appointment on a schedule. We plan together so the experience feels relaxed, personalized, and true to them.

✨ If you have a rising senior at home, now is a great time to start planning ahead.

To the seniors finishing their last days of high school this week… congratulations.
What a huge milestone.

There’s excitement, anticipation, nerves, celebration… and probably a lot of reflection too.

And to the moms sitting with all of it right now… the pride, the memories, the realization that time really does move quickly… I see you too.

To the seniors heading into this next chapter:
Live fully. Make memories. Have fun.
Some of the best years are just around the corner.

Enjoy every minute of it 🤍

Coaches help their clients see new possibilities, shift their thinking, and take steps they might not take on their own.

But when it comes to being in front of the camera…even coaches hesitate.

That’s why these in-studio sessions are designed to feel guided and supportive.

You don’t need to know what to do. That’s my role.

I’ll guide you, reflect back what I see, and help you make small shifts so you can show up in a way that feels natural and aligned.

The result isn’t just a headshot… it’s images that support how you show up in your work.

✨ If you’ve been putting this off, this is a simple place to start.

Send me a message if you want the details.

A quick Mother’s Day reminder
 You don’t need a special occasion
or a perfectly planned day to be in photos with your family.

The everyday moments matter just as much.
Grab your loved ones and get in the photo to capture a moment from the day.

Happy Mother’s Day 🤍

Still thinking about Mother’s Day?

This is one of those gifts that doesn’t get tucked away…it becomes something your family comes back to.

Sessions can be used anytime in 2026, when it actually feels right.

✨ Message me GIFT and I’ll share the details

Not every gift needs to be opened on Mother’s Day.

Some gifts last longer than a moment.

This could be for a mom in the middle of busy, everyday life…
a grandmother surrounded by growing families…
or something a daughter plans with her mom… time set aside, together.

A photo session isn’t about the day itself.
It’s about creating something you’ll come back to again and again.

The best part, there’s no rush.
Gift cards can be used anytime in 2026, when it actually feels like the right time.

If this feels like a meaningful way to celebrate someone this year, I’m happy to share the details.

I’m a photographer who works with families, high school seniors, and women entrepreneurs… but right now, I find myself especially connected to the moms of high school students.

Because I’m in it too.

As a mom of a sophomore and a junior, I’m starting to feel just how full this season is. There’s so much happening all at once - events, exams, decisions, celebrations, and underneath it all, this quiet awareness that things are changing.

To the moms of seniors, you’re in the thick of a big transition. There’s so much to hold, plan, and process all at once.

And to the moms of juniors, the year ahead will move quickly.

It’s a season filled with meaningful moments, but also one that can easily feel like it’s rushing by.

That’s why I believe so much in capturing this time.

Not just the milestone, but who your child is right now, their personality, their energy, this in-between moment before everything shifts.

Because as much as we’re preparing them for what’s next…�
we are also trying to hold onto what is now.

Does this season feel like its flying for you too?

One of the biggest reasons women delay brand photos?
“I’m not ready yet.”

So I created something to help.
