Working with families is such a joy for me. I love capturing the joy and love you have; your unique personalities and how you all relate to each other. I grew up in a very family - oriented family and it has inspired a passion inside of me to see other families thrive and to do what I can to help them build strong relationships.

    What I love about family photography is how it allows you to see your family the way others do! I love getting to know the families I work with because each one is so different! Big or small, boisterous or reserved, I want to know what makes your family love to be together.
  • I am the oldest of three siblings
  • I have two younger brothers
  • We love to laugh together (mostly my dad and brothers making me laugh :)
  • We love to play games
  • We quote movies (and books and YouTube videos and other people.... pretty much anything we find funny or amusing)
  • My dad is a retired mechanical engineer, my mom is/was a stay-at-home mom who homeschooled us, and my brothers do welding, woodworking, and metalworking.
I can't wait to learn about your family and what you love to do together!
When I start a family session, we don't immediately pull out the camera. Since I've probably not met you in person before, I want to talk to you and your family and get to know you better. Emails and questionnaires are great but nothing beats talking in person! I also want to use this time strategically to let your kids warm up to me and the location. With children (especially littler ones), I want to let them run and play and explore at the beginning. I actually get some really great photos from this part of the session!

I'll have arrived at your chosen location a little bit early to scout out the best spots. That saves time once we start the shooting part of the session and I can put all of my focus on your family!!

Even with getting to know me and chatting before the shooting starts, you'll probably still feel a little bit awkward at first. That's perfectly alright and NORMAL! Don't worry, I'll have you relaxed and laughing in no time, if for no other reason than some of the ridiculous things I do to get a shot!
