Outdoor Shoots

Outdoor shoots are fun and relaxed. I have a list of possible locations available that I forward to clients upon booking. Natural, fun unposed photographs to capture the essence of your family.

Pet Portraits

Pets are family too! Whether you have a new puppy or want to capture a senior dog – in studio or outdoors.

Newborn Photography

I believe that your new baby should be the main focus of the newborn session. My style is clean, pure, minimalistic and timeless, I do not over-clutter a newborn session with props.

Maternity Photography

All couples want to commemorate this special season in their lives. My style is clean, pure, minimalistic and timeless; this special time will be captured in a natural and simplistic way.

Baby Photography

Babies change and grow on a daily basis. My style is clean, pure, minimalistic and timeless, I do not over-clutter the photo session with props. Capturing your sweet baby is the aim of the session.

Family Photography

Natural, fun unposed photographs to capture the essence of your family. My style is clean, pure, minimalistic and timeless; creating timeless art that will turn into family heirlooms.

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above.
