YOUR STORY, YOUR WAY — FAMILY & MOTHERHOOD SESSIONS

Photography isn’t just about taking beautiful images — it’s about remembering how it felt. That one morning when your baby fit perfectly in your arms. That quiet look between you and the person you love. That moment of laughter that filled the whole room. These are the stories I want to preserve for you.

My sessions are more than just a service.They are a space to slow down, to be seen, and to remember what really matters.

  PACKAGES WITH HEART  

When I speak about packages, I don’t mean time slots and deliverables.I mean little boxes of memory, wrapped in light. I mean a chance to stop for a moment and really see your life as it is now. Each session I offer is a doorway — into presence, into connection, into the things we often rush past.

We don’t always remember the way someone looked at us.Or the softness of a newborn’s skin.Or how the wind played with your child’s hair while they ran toward you, laughing.But these moments are everything. They’re the story. The heartbeat. The love.

A “package” is just a word —but what I offer is a space to hold something sacred: your love, your family, your truth.

MATERNITY  

Pregnancy is a fleeting season — a quiet transformation where new life takes root and your world begins to shift in the most tender way. My sessions are not about the perfect dress or the posed silhouette, but about slowing down to feel the baby moving inside, the hands that hold your growing belly, the light that wraps around your waiting.

I photograph these moments not to impress, but to preserve — for you, for your child, for the days when you’ll want to remember how it all began. Whether it’s your first or your fifth, each journey into motherhood holds its own quiet power.

These images will become your legacy — not just memories, but proof of how deeply you loved before ever holding them in your arms.

MOTHERHOOD & NEWBORN  

There is something sacred about this chapter — the threshold between who you were and who you are becoming. The newborn days are soft and blurry, full of firsts and quiet awe. Motherhood begins here, in the weight of a baby on your chest, in the way your body bends to care, to soothe, to love.

These sessions are not about perfection. They are about truth. About the way your tired eyes still soften when you look at them. About how your hands move without thinking — holding, rocking, wrapping them in safety. About the fierce tenderness that fills the room.

You don’t need to prepare. You don’t need to clean up or perform. You are already enough, exactly as you are. I’ll come into your space gently, with patience and reverence, to witness and preserve what matters most.

Because one day, they’ll grow. But these photos will whisper back: “You were here. You held them. You loved them more than words could ever say.”

LOVE STORY & ENGAGEMENT  

Love doesn’t only live in big moments. It lives in the way you look at each other when no one’s watching. In the ease of your laughter, the comfort of silence, the way your fingers find theirs, instinctively.A love story session is a space to slow down and remember what it feels like — to be chosen, to be seen, to be home in someone’s arms. It’s for the early days and the long-time love, for the quiet Sunday mornings and the electric, heart-racing chapters.No posing, no pressure — just the two of you, as you are. Honest, soft, real.One day, when the years have passed, and you’re sitting side by side flipping through a book of your life together, these photos will remind you of the spark. The steadiness. The beginning. The beauty of your story.

FAMILY  

Family isn’t always tidy. It’s not about matching clothes or perfect poses.It’s sticky fingers, sudden giggles, long days, tiny shoes by the door. It’s holding each other together through the chaos and the calm.

That’s what I want to photograph — not a version of your family, but the real thing.The way you reach for your child without thinking. The way they light up when they look at you. The way love weaves itself into the everyday, quietly and powerfully.

During a session, there’s no pressure to smile on command. We move, we play, we let the magic unfold in between the planned moments — because often, those are the ones that stay with us the longest.

You won’t remember every day. But you will remember how it felt to be together.And one day, these images will tell your children:

“This is where you came from. This is how deeply you were loved.”

THESE SESSIONS ARE A PAUSE. A BREATH. A REMINDER.  

That this season — even in its mess and motion — is worthy of being remembered.You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to be here.

That’s more than enough.
