Your family is a story in motion—full of love, laughter, and the beautifully unscripted moments that make life extraordinary. Our approach is all about capturing the real connections—the belly laughs, the quiet snuggles, the way you just belong together. No stiff poses, no forced smiles—just effortless, true-to-you images that celebrate your family, just as you are.
Since 2019, I’ve been telling love-filled stories through family photography across Indiana and the Midwest—capturing moments as real, raw, and entirely you as the love you share.
From first steps to belly laughs, I live for the in-between moments—the ones that can’t be staged, predicted, or posed, but will have you reminiscing for years to come.
Whether you’re chasing giggles in a sun-soaked field, cuddled up on the couch in your happy place, or splashing through puddles after a summer storm—my family photography is all about preserving the unfiltered, heart-bursting magic of your story.
Any age! Whether you've got a newborn, toddlers running wild, teenagers who'd rather be anywhere else, or multi-generational crew, family photos work at every stage. Each season of family life has its own magic worth capturing.
Your choice! We can shoot at my studio, your home, a favorite park, or anywhere that feels meaningful to you. Outdoor sessions give us beautiful natural light, while studio or in-home sessions feel more intimate. Just keep in mind that some locations do require permits or reservations for professional photography, so it's important to communicate and plan ahead. Let me know where you're thinking, and I can help figure out if we need to get any permissions sorted before your session.
Honestly, we don't force it. I'm great at working with wiggly, grumpy, or camera-shy kids. The goal is capturing your family as you really are—even if that means someone's crying or running in the opposite direction. Those "imperfect" moments are often the most real and cherished. That said, bribery is absolutely your best friend here—bring snacks, promise ice cream after, whatever works! I'm not above using treats and promises to get one more smile before we wrap up.
Bring everyone! Grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins—the more the merrier. I'm great at wrangling large groups and making sure everyone gets their moment. Just give me a heads-up on who's coming so we can plan accordingly.
About an hour. That's enough time to get great shots without exhausting everyone—especially little kids who max out on patience quickly.
