Portraits

My love for portraits began as I watched my wedding couples grow their families. Whether it’s buying their first home, adding four paws, or bringing their own little mini-me into this world, it’s such a joy for me to continue on their journey with them. When I’m welcomed into their home and I see my photography covering their walls, it is a humble reminder of just how important my job is. Their story being told with each frame ascending up the stairwell or down the hallway. 

These sessions aren’t just for AMP alumni. I accept a few new families every year and would be honored to come alongside you to help you preserve this brief season of life forever. The days can feel long, but the years are so short. So, friend, your story is worth telling. When you look back on these milestones, I want you to be able to relive the joy you feel with every giggle, every kiss, every smile, and every hug. We will make these moments everlasting.  

Seasons pass so quickly, whatever your milestone, I want to help you remember it foreveR

Senior Photos

Whether you’re graduating high school or college or grad school, you need to commemorate this achievement. A really great way to do that is by having photos to preserve this massive accomplishment forever!

Baby’s First Year

This is an a la carte collection that offers maternity, fresh 48, newborn, 3, 6, 9, and 12 month photos. This is the most popular AMP portrait collection and because of the time requirement involved, I accept only a few of these each year.

Anniversary Sessions

Any year is a year to celebrate. Don’t wait for the big milestone years to celebrate your love. You are worth it and so is your marriage. What better way to show it off than to invest in photos that cover the walls of your home for years to come.

Service Types

Types of portrait sessions I offer to a limited number of clients each year.

Proposals

Something so near and dear to my heart. I love surprising others and I love being surprised. Helping you plan and documenting your proposal generates a whole other level of excitement for me! I’d love to chat more about this!

Engagement Sessions

I do include engagement photos in most wedding collections. However, if you have other plans for your wedding photography and would still like to use me as your engagement photographer, be sure to fill out my inquiry form below!

Family Photos

Annual family photos is something I truly wish every family would do. Find a photographer you love and commit to them every year. Let them tell your story. And at the end of a 5 year time frame, let them build a book to share your life the past five years. It’s incredible how the babies in your life will grow up before you know it.
