What type of photography do you specialize in? 

I am a Northeast Atlanta family and newborn photographer, so I focus on outdoor family sessions, in-home newborn sessions, and couples / maternity sessions. You can see more about these on my investment page.

What is your photography style?

I am a lifestyle Atlanta family and newborn photographer that prioritizes authenticity, opting for more natural and playful poses as well as genuine facial expressions. We’ll chat and giggle a lot during our time together.

I prefer natural light and aim to use it to create a consistent glow in each image. My editing style is light, bright and true to color.

What areas do you serve?

My home base is in Norcross, but I travel all across Northeast Atlanta, including Alpharetta, Peachtree Corners, Roswell, Chamblee, Duluth, Johns Creek and surrounding areas. I love meeting new faces and learning new areas, so don’t hesitate to reach out!

Do you help with outfit planning?

Yes! Coordinating outfits for the whole family is one of my favorite parts of the process. I include various outfit ideas in a prep guide that I send to every client. I am also happy to work with you to provide feedback on options you are thinking about.

When should I schedule a newborn session?

To provide my clients with the best experience and be readily available for them, I take on a limited number of in-home newborn sessions each month. Because of that I highly recommend reaching out to get on my schedule by the end of your second trimester. 

After your baby is born, you’ll email me within 24-48 hours and we’ll schedule your session for a day when baby is between 7 and 14 days old. 

When should I schedule a maternity session?

The ideal time for a maternity session is between 27 and 34 weeks. This sweet spot is perfect as your belly is usually starting to show in that cute “I’m pregnant” kind of way, but you haven’t hit critical discomfort or puffiness. 

Can I bring my dog to our session?

Yes! I know your furry friends are part of your family—so of course they should be included if you want them in your photos! The only thing I ask is that you keep them on a leash if they tend to get really excited or want to explore. 

Can I pick the location we shoot at?

Yes, if you have a spot that is special to you, we can absolutely shoot there. If I have any concerns with the location that will prevent me from delivering my signature style, I will let you know. I also have a list of options that I can recommend if you don’t have a spot in mind.

Do you offer mini sessions?

I typically offer mini sessions in the Spring and Fall. These 15 minute sessions are a perfect way to get a few updated photos of your family. Join my email list to stay in the know on when my next mini sessions will be offered.

Where can I find your pricing details?

You can find everything about session types and the starting package amounts on my investment page. This page outlines everything you need to know about the types of sessions I offer and what is included with each.
