As a momma, I know how quickly kids grow and how easily the everyday moments slip by.
My approach to family photography is relaxed, colorful, and focused on capturing your family as you actually are and not a perfectly posed version of you.
Based in Boone, NC, I photograph families throughout the High Country, including Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, Linville, and the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. My approach blends beautifully composed portraits with genuine moments and personality, creating images that feel both polished and natural.
From laid-back mountain sessions to family photos at some of the High Country's most beautiful locations, I want your session to feel more like spending time together than standing around taking pictures.
I'll give you enough direction to keep things moving, but there won't be a long list of poses or a requirement for everyone to look at the camera. Expect movement, personality, a little chaos, and plenty of photographs that actually feel like your family.
I DON'T NEED YOUR KIDS TO SIT STILL.
I'd actually rather they didn't.
The best family photographs tend to happen somewhere between the planned moments. The laugh you weren't expecting, the kid who wanders off, the way everyone piles onto the same blanket, or the little hand that finds yours without thinking about it.
I'll give you enough direction to create beautiful, polished portraits, while leaving plenty of room for the genuine moments and personality that make them yours. I want your gallery to have the portraits you'll frame, along with the photographs that make you smile because they feel unmistakably like your family.
