            What can you expect from a family session? You can expect a lot-smiles, giggles, and joy. When you reach out for a family session, you get the knowledge that I am a mother.

              What is a mini-session?

              Mini-sessions are shorter sessions (only 20 minutes) that are specifically designed with littles in mind! I know how hard it is as a parent to have littles one and how hard it is for them to focus during a family session. Littles ones have big energy, big smiles, big emotions, and honestly just can’t handle...

                  Families are more interactive!

It brings laughter and joy to me to watch a family having fun together. *Some families have had me laughing so hard that I...
