Let’s be honest, photography is so much more than just the click of a button. It’s about documenting the end of an era or the beginning of a new one. It’s about capturing the life your little kiddo is discovering, the growth that’s unfolding right before your eyes. It’s about freezing those fleeting moments as your kids seem to age by the minute, holding onto the laughter, the chaos, and the quiet, tender times that make your family uniquely yours.
Every photograph tells a story—your story. Whether it's a milestone, a celebration, or the beauty of everyday life, my passion is turning these moments into art that you can cherish for a lifetime. I believe in creating a space where you feel seen, celebrated, and confident that your memories are preserved in a way that reflects the love and joy you share.
Time may fly, but your memories don’t have to. Let’s capture them together.
A little click of a button goes a long way.
Can't wait to meet you!

Heading 3
Step 1: Get in Touch
Ready to book a session in Lafayette? Just send me a quick message! Within 24 hours, I’ll reach out for a laid-back chat to answer any questions you have. I’ll also send over my full investment guide so you can review all the details. If it feels like the right fit, I’ll put together a booking proposal just for you
Step 2: Booking
When you're ready to make it official, just review the booking proposal, sign the contract, and submit the booking fee. Booking fees range from $129-$199, with a typical 1-hour family or senior session at $129.
My calendar fills up fast—especially in peak seasons like summer and fall—so don’t wait too long to grab your spot!
Step 3: Planning
Once you're booked, I’ll send a welcome guide packed with helpful info, plus a client questionnaire to get to know you better. We’ll choose the perfect location, whether it’s one of Lafayette’s beautiful parks, a cozy downtown spot, or a place that’s special to you.
Next, let’s talk outfits! You can browse my online styling guides or client closet for inspiration. Need hair & makeup? I know some amazing local artists who can help!
For families, we’ll also chat about what kind of wall art or keepsakes you might love. Want a statement piece for your home? Send me photos and measurements of your walls, and I’ll design custom artwork to fit your space!
For seniors, we’ll plan a session that reflects your personality—multiple outfits, meaningful locations, and all the little details that make you you
Step 4: The session
On the big day, your only job is to have fun! I’ll guide you through natural poses and prompts to capture real smiles, laughter, and connection. No awkward or stiff posing—just moments that feel authentically you. For families, I’ll make sure we capture both playful interactions and sweet, heartfelt moments. For seniors, we’ll highlight your unique style and personality, whether that means dancing through a field, strolling downtown, or rocking your sports or band gear.
Step 5: Reveal & Ordering
My favorite part! Within a week, we’ll get together for your big reveal—either in my Lafayette studio or virtually if that’s more convenient. You’ll experience the magic of seeing your photos for the first time, choose your favorites, and select a collection and heirloom products that speak to you. Collections start at $499, with signature offerings like beautifully crafted albums, framed artwork, and gallery-wrapped canvases.
About a week after your reveal, your final images will be ready to download from your online gallery! If you’ve ordered albums, wall art, or other keepsakes, they’ll arrive within 4-6 weeks—worth every second of the wait!
