I offer guided, relaxed photography rooted in genuine connection. Through thoughtful direction and natural movement, I help bring out the very best in in you, capturing a gallery that celebrates exactly who you are right now.

They happen when you’re breathing, laughing, and simply being. Whether you are celebrating a milestone or capturing the quiet beauty of your daily life, my goal is to create a space where you feel completely at ease.


when do the best photos happen?

  • Custom Styling Guide: No more "what do I wear?" stress. You’ll receive my curated styling guide to help you choose colors, textures, and silhouettes that photograph beautifully and coordinate perfectly.

  • Personalized Vision Boards: To ensure we are on the same page, I create a digital vision board for your session. This helps us nail down the mood, lighting, and "vibe" of your shoot before we even meet.

  • Curated Location Selection: I provide a list of my favorite tried-and-true locations. We will work together to select the perfect backdrop from my suggestions that aligns with your specific vision.

  • The Prop Closet: Access to my personal collection of props! From vintage blankets to fun accessories, I provide the "little extras" I have on hand to make your session interactive, playful, and uniquely you.

Every session includes a personalized planning process to ensure your final images feel authentic and effortless.

Frequently asked questions

Typically between 28–34 weeks is best for movin' around comfortably. But remember, this is your journey. If you want to capture a pregnancy announcement the moment you find out, I’m your girl!

When is the best time during my pregnancy to schedule my maternity session?

My job is to make you feel so relaxed and comfortable that the camera becomes an afterthought. We'll laugh, move around, and just be real. The candid ones are my favorite ones.

For family photos, what if my kids (or I) aren't used to posing for a photo?

You bet! While I’m rooted here in Mesa, I’m always happy to hit the trail. I serve the whole Valley. From Scottsdale over to Gilbert and everywhere in between. If your heart is set on a spot further than 30 miles from my home range, we can surely make it happen. A travel fee applies for those extra miles, but no distance is too far for the right shot.

Do you travel outside of Phoenix?

You’ll have your full gallery within 6 weeks, though I usually have them polished and ready much sooner.

When will we get our photos?

I suggest booking 3–5 weeks in advance. Weekend sessions are high noon favorites and that desert glow waits for no one! Don't let your date ride off into the sunset—[Book your spot here!]

How far in advance should we book?

We all know Arizona weather can be unpredictable! If a dust storm or monsoon is moving in on the day of your shoot, we’ll simply find a new time that works for everyone. I’m very flexible with rescheduling for weather. My main goal is making sure you’re safe.

What happens if it’s too hot or the weather turns sour?

Whatever makes you feel like a million bucks! Flowy dresses that catch the desert breeze, fitted fabrics that show off that beautiful bump, and soft, neutral tones are always a surefire win. I offer two outfit options so we can change it up during your shoot. I also send out vision boards to help style you.

What should I wear for my maternity session?
