What’s the best part about having kids? …
Watching them grow up. 🥹
But for now, I’m soaking up every little giggle, every messy pancake, every cuddle.
These are the days I’ll want back. 💛

Being a baby photographer means doing whatever it takes to get those giggles – silly songs, animal sounds, peekaboo… you name it! 😛
And honestly?
I wouldn’t have it any other way 🙌🏼
Because those real, joyful smiles are worth every goofy moment. 💫🙏🏻♥️
Seriously doesn’t your little one LOVE the baby shark song? 😄

At my studio, first birthday sessions are relaxed, playful, and filled with love. 🥰
Whether you want a classic portrait, a cute cake smash, or a little bit of both, we’ll make sure your baby’s big personality shines. 😎
I’ve even had the joy of photographing these siblings a few years apart — it’s so heartwarming to see families come back to mark these milestones. 🙏🏻💫
