the magic is in the messy

What it's like to work with me

You don’t need to show up perfectly dressed or perfectly calm.
You just need to show up as you are.
Because the best photos don’t come from stiff poses…
They come from giggles in the grass, hand squeezes, snack breaks, and barefoot joy.

My sessions are slow, soulful, and full of grace. Whether we’re wrangling toddlers or feeding goats mid-photo, you’ll walk away with more than images—you’ll walk away with a memory.

01. BEFORE THE SESSION: WE DREAM TOGETHER


After you book, I’ll send over a cozy little session guide with:

  • Outfit tips that feel like you, not Pinterest pressure
  • Location inspo based on your style (field, farmhouse, backyard, or boots in the mud)
  • A quick love note on what to expect so you feel 100% prepped, not stressed

You can also text me a photo of what you're thinking—I’m here to walk with you like a friend, not a vendor.


02. DURING THE SESSION: YOU BE YOU, I'LL BE WATCHING FOR THE MAGIC


No “look at the camera and say cheese” pressure here.

We’ll laugh, play, and lean into whatever the day brings—because real life is the story.

I'll guide you gently when needed, but I’m mostly watching for the spark:

  • The way your kiddo grabs your hand
  • That one moment your partner looks at you like they did when you first met
  • The dirt on the knees that tells a story louder than words


03. AFTER THE SESSION: YOUR STORY COMES TO LIFE


Within 2–3 weeks, you’ll get a hand-edited, high-res gallery that feels warm, earthy, and true to you—delivered via an easy-to-use online gallery.

What you get:

  • Downloadable digital files
  • Optional print shop access for albums, framed prints, and more
  • A gallery that feels like an old song you forgot you loved
