Okay, VIPs had their turn. Now it’s yours. 🍂
My email list got first dibs on Fall Minis last week, and you guys snagged 12 of the 18 sessions before I ever shared the booking link publicly. 🖤
So… Fall Minis are officially open to everyone!
These little sessions may only be 15 minutes, but as you can see — we can make a whole lot of magic in that time. ✨ Real smiles, snuggles, movement, connection, and yes, we’ll get the everyone-looking-at-the-camera one for Grandma too. 😉
Here’s what’s left:
🍂 September 20 — 4 spots
🍂 October 11 — 1 spot
🍂 October 17 — 1 spot
$375 • 15 minutes • 10+ fully edited digital images
September deserves a little love, too — warm evenings, golden grasses, lingering greens and that gorgeous end-of-summer glow. Honestly, it’s one of my favorite times of year to photograph families.
Booking is officially OPEN.
Grab your spot through the link in my bio. 🖤
Can’t wait to see you this fall!

Sometimes you bring a kid a disposable camera to a family session and accidentally create a tiny second photographer. 🥹
I brought Lila a camera so she could document the night right alongside me, and apparently she took her assignment very seriously. Her mom just sent me a photo Lila took of me taking a photo of her, while my daughter was behind me filming the whole thing. And I don’t know why, but that little full-circle moment absolutely got me. ❤️
As for the O’Neill family themselves… good freaking luck narrowing this session down. 😂 Golden light, wildflowers, belly laughs, kids being kids, and SO many little moments that couldn’t have been planned if we tried.
I have approximately 200 favorites and absolutely no self-control, so here’s your sneak peek. ✨
Swipe all the way to the end to see the photographer become the photographed. 🥹
There’s nothing quite like those first few days.
The hospital bracelets. The tiny toes. The sleepy stretches. The way you can’t stop staring at this little person you’ve waited nine months to finally meet.
Reign, one day old. 🤍
Getting to document these first hours for one of my best friends made this Fresh 48 even more special. These moments change so quickly, which is exactly why I love preserving them.
Welcome to the world, sweet girl. You are already so incredibly loved. 🤍
There is something really special about the season when a family grows into a new generation.
Parents become grandparents.
Children become parents.
And suddenly one tiny little person becomes the center of everyone’s world.
This session was originally supposed to be about the whole family… but if we’re being honest, Sutton stole the show. ❤️
Watching everyone love on her, laugh with her, and soak up every little expression reminded me why I love photographing families. These aren’t just portraits—they’re little pieces of your family’s story.
Even a summer storm couldn’t keep us from making it happen.
From a few behind-the-scenes moments… to a few of my favorite final images. ✨
Lauren absolutely brought these to life. More from this beautiful senior session coming soon.
Currently booking Class of 2027 seniors.
Fourteen years ago, I photographed the beginning of their story. ❤️
Recently, I got to photograph the beautiful, busy, joy-filled family they’ve built together.
Four kids, endless energy, wildflower fields, golden light, and all the beautiful in-between moments that happen when everyone simply gets to be themselves.
It’s such a gift to reconnect with clients years later and witness the lives they’ve created. Thank you for trusting me again, it was so much fun chasing this crew around.
The chaos is temporary. The photographs aren’t.💛
Every bride deserves a few quiet moments in the middle of a beautifully chaotic day.
Brooke absolutely glowed.
One of my favorite things about photography is getting to freeze seasons of life that might otherwise slip by unnoticed.
Not every session has to celebrate a huge milestone.
Sometimes it’s enough to say,
“This is us, right here. Let’s remember it.”
Brooklyn and Jackson made that incredibly easy. 🤍
PSA: You absolutely don’t need an engagement ring to book a couples session. Sometimes “we’re happy together” is reason enough. ☀️
