Family

THE PORTFOLIO GALLERY

I believe that the family photography process should be easy, and that the results should be both candid and classic. I mix my sessions with down-home activity and modern portraits. 

I really love working with children and meeting them where they are.  Being with children on a personal level allows them to open up to me and my camera in a way that truly captures their personality.

When and how should we schedule?

when and how should we schedule?

For busy season (aka autumn), you’ll want to get on my calendar in July or August to ensure a prime date. I have an easy online-scheduling system that allows you to choose your family’s ideal date and time.

what is the best time for a session?

what is the best time for a sessioN?

We aim for the ‘golden hour’ ideally, which is about 2 hours before listed sunset time. This can definitely be flexible, however, since I’m able to work in a variety of lighting situations and produce beautiful images for you. Session dates are available for both weekdays and weekends.

The BEST time to schedule your session is when you know your little people will be happy.

can you tell me more about the experience?

can you tell me more about the experience?

We will walk around the property with your family for a variety of looks. There is a weeping willow tree, long wooded path, open field, and lovely greenery. Depending on the season and weather, we may also hop a ride on the studio’s outdoor vehicle to create images in other parts of the property.

During the session, we will let the kids play a bit, and after the session they can swing on our swing set if they want to (it’s right out in the open – they won’t miss it and they’ll probably want to get on it. It’s large!)

what is your experience with families and kids?

what is your experience with families and kids?

I am the dish-washing, diaper-changing, schedule-organizing mom of four awesome kids. You might meet them at some point if you come to the property for a session!

Joy (11) – loves swimming and being the boss. She’s very responsible and helpful for my sessions if needed.

Bronco (7) – loves Fortnite and is obsessed with the weather and natural disasters

Paige “PJ” (5) – absolutely adorable, and absolutely a lovely, beautiful nightmare.

Grant (2) – obsessed with trucks

Brad (46) – works hard to keep our grass cut and the property looking beautiful. Married 16 years.

I absolutely love holding newborns, and can answer a million mom-questions. I love the challenge of a two-year-old, and four year olds are really fun! I love talking with the older children to get to know their thoughts, and believe that every age of childhood is fleeting, and thus – incredibly meaningful.

where is your studio property located?

where is your studio property located?

My studio property is located near Beaver. It is very easy to access from I-376, Rt. 51, Rt.65, and the Turnpike.

The property is 60 acres of woods, fields, and open space with beautiful light throughout the day.

do you do mini sessions?

I offer mini sessions from time to time only to those who are on my EXCLUSIVE MAILING LIST.

She went above and beyond after hearing that my son was obsessed with tractors by getting out one of their own tractors from the barn for him to enjoy. I mean that’s true kindness right there. The photos and editing turned out better than I could have imagined and I’ll cherish them forever. Leeann doesn’t know this yet but I plan to bug her for every milestone and fam photos in the future because the entire experience was that good.
