This little desk, a laptop, and a lot of heart.
What started as a way to stay close to my babies slowly became a business, a purpose, and a creative life Iβm deeply grateful for.
You donβt need a huge studio or perfect timing to begin.
Sometimes it starts right at homeβone small step, one client, one βwhat if I try?β
If youβve ever dreamed of turning your creativity into something more,
this is your sign that itβs possible π€

Time doesnβt slow down.
Babies grow.
Moments pass.
And the days we think are ordinary become the ones we miss the most β₯οΈ

This past year was full of tiny moments that didnβt feel big at the time β
a sleepy newborn stretch, a messy cake smash, shy smiles, giggles that lasted only seconds β₯οΈ
Memories fade.
The details soften.
But photos donβtβ¨
They freeze the in-between moments we forget weβll miss.
They remind us how small they once were, how fast everything changed.
They bring us back to seasons we didnβt know weβd be nostalgic for yet.
As I look back at this yearβs sessions, Iβm reminded why printing photos matters so much.
Because one day, these images wonβt just be photos β
theyβll be proof of love, growth, and time passing far too quickly.
Hereβs to a year full of stories, families, and moments that deserve to be remembered β
not just in our hearts, but in our hands. πβ¨

Some sessions mean a little more β₯οΈ.
Watching this family growβfrom photographing their first baby girl as a newborn, to documenting the maternity journey and the newborn moments for their secondβfills my heart in the deepest way.
Being trusted again and again to witness these moments, especially welcoming two beautiful girls into one family, is something I never take lightly π€
This is why I do what I do π
