A Los Angeles photographer with a Bachelor of Arts in photography, technically trained on film. These days I shoot digital but that background is baked into how I see light and frame a shot.


I started my family photography business in 2010 and my style has stayed pretty consistent since. I love a mix of candid, lifestyle moments and classic portraits done right. Becoming a mom myself in 2013 changed something in how I see it. Now that I understand those feelings, the exhaustion, the chaos, the way you blink and it's a different kid, I find myself gravitating more and more toward the candid, in-between moments. They mean something different to me now.


I'm a mom of three, an older son and a set of boy-girl twins, so I know exactly what "chaos" looks like from the inside. I've watched trends come and go, filters too, and I've always come back to the same thing: timeless, real, and unfiltered wins every time.

Frequently asked questions

Where will my session take place?

 

Wherever feels right, your home, the beach, a park, or another meaningful spot. I'll help you choose based on your child's age.

How long do sessions last?

A standard session usually 1–2 hours, guided by your child's mood. Newborn sessions can run longer for feeding breaks, I'm flexible and prepared for it. My Slice of Life sessions typically run 3–5 hours in order to fully capture a real, unfolding day rather than just a single moment in it.

 

Can I get the digital files?

Yes, most clients purchase digital images individually or as part of a package, delivered full-resolution. That said, I always encourage a mix of print product and digital files, digital-only files have a way of getting lost on a computer or old phone, while a printed album or piece of wall art is something you'll actually see and hold onto for years.

Can I customize a package ?

Yes, always, just ask.

 

What should we wear?

I'll send an outfit guide after booking. Simple, timeless, coordinated colors work best, avoid busy patterns or pure white/black.

Who can be included?

Parents, grandparents, and pets are always welcome at no extra cost.
