Lay back, act natural, and let’s have some fun together!
This isn’t just about a photo session, it's about you and creating memories to last a lifetime. As your photographer, I'm here to ensure your experience is everything you dreamed of. My goal is to make sure you have fun and feel at ease throughout our time together to capture your story in the most natural way possible. I want you to be present in these moments of your life. All you need to do is show up and be yourself while I work my magic.
Your most beloved memories framed in a timeless portrait
My approach
I'm all about authenticity and capturing the real you, so that when you look back at your photographs, it feels like you're back in that moment. I consider my style of photography to be very intentional, yet candid. As much as I love posed portraits, I find myself drawn to candid moments where my clients are carefree and entirely their true selves. Both of these styles of photography mesh together beautifully to tell your unique story. My editing style is timeless and inspired by my roots in film photography.
I get what it's like to feel awkward or uncomfortable in front of the camera, so as your personal hype woman, you can count on me to boost your confidence. If you're someone who doesn't know how to pose or what to do with your body, I'll be there to gently guide you into poses throughout our session. Before you know it, you'll be a pro in front of the camera!
As a preschool photographer, I have quite a few tricks up my sleeve to get a genuine smile or laugh from even the most shy kids. For my family sessions, I'm easily able to meet kids at their own comfort level so they feel safe and comfortable working with me.
What can clients expect from me?
I strive to provide my clients with the best experience possible, from beginning to end. To inquire about working together, reach out to me by email or the contact form on my website, under contact. Once I receive your inquiry I'll reach out to you and we will schedule a time to talk on the phone. During that call we'll get to know each other and discuss the different packages I offer to choose the option that best fits your needs. Then, I will send over paperwork and book your session. We'll remain in touch up until the day of your session, where we'll meet up and have fun together! When your gallery is ready I will let you know and send along your link. My galleries are through Pixieset as well, so you'll easily be able to access your gallery, download images, and share the link with your family and friends!

Delivering Galleries
At the end of our session, I'll update you on my editing turn around time. When that comes around, you'll receive a gallery of stunning, edited images from your session!
I don't like the way I look in photos or know how to pose without looking awkward. Will you help me?
Absolutely! I use what I like to call gentle guidance and direction to naturally guide people into poses and formations. My style is a nice mix of posed portraits and candids, and this approach to direction brings you into poses that feel natural to you and photograph nicely. I'm here to help you feel comfortable in front of my camera and look great!
How do I book a session with you?
Reach out to me through the contact form on my website, or by email. Once I receive your inquiry, I'll be in touch and we'll go from there! While I am active on my Instagram and love to engage with everyone on there, I do not do bookings through direct messages on social media platforms.
Do you offer prints?
Yes, I do! Clients automatically receive a link to a digital gallery of their edited images with every package. I provide prints for an additional cost.
Are you available outside of New England?
Yes! I'm happy to travel anywhere photography takes me. However, additional travel fees will be added into the total cost of your package.
Who has ownership of the images?
As the photographer, I own my images. However, clients have full permission to download and print all photographs from their gallery, and I love when my clients post photos on social media!
I want to have family portraits done, but don't want photos of my kids posted on social media. Is that possible?
Absolutely! When it comes time to sign your contract, there will be an option for you to deny consent for any of your images to be used on my website or social media. The same thing goes for people of all ages. I will not post any images without explicit permission from all involved parties.
