Where passions collide


Family photoshoots are among my favorite types of sessions. Having worked as a teacher and/or in childcare settings for over seven years, working with children is a passion of mine nearly on par with photography. I'm proud to be able to coax smiles out of even the most shy of children and use my teaching background to find ways to engage them in the session so they can stay engaged -- or, to create dedicated movement breaks or fun tasks for them when they get antsy. I'm happy to offer shorter 30 minute sessions, a full hour, or even 90 minutes depending on what makes sense for you and your family, and I promise that we'll have a ton of fun no matter how long we get to spend together. Having fun is what makes the photos so genuine!
