I work to create intimate images that celebrate life and love…
Although, portraits at any age or stage of life are treasured memoirs, my greatest passion is maternity and newborn portraits.
~~~~~My Story~~~~~
I am a private photographer – your photographer. I’ve been photographing babies and families for over a decade, and I am certified. That’s the “how”… as for “why” I chose to celebrate maternity and newborns…
Let me tell you a story:
As a freshman in college, one of the first assignments I was given in my English class was to write an essay detailing one event in my life that made me feel most “human”.
I promptly wrote an account of witnessing the birth of my youngest brother. I was 16 at the time he was born and my mother, wise beyond what a teenager thinks her mom to be, invited me into the room where she gave birth.
(Those years ago this was not common…)
Even at that innocent age I knew that I had witnessed something miraculous, profound, life-altering… and yet so very “human”. The beginning of an entirely new person, a new family, the opening of a new chamber in all of our hearts – the complete and utter presence of PURE love – you could see it, feel it in the room.
Thus began my love for this particular human experience – the making of a family, the very creation of LOVE.
But I didn’t only fall in love with BABIES, I fell in love with the whole experience which brings them to us. There is something miraculous about a baby – we all know – but there is something equally miraculous about making a baby. It is a miracle that your own body can make the most treasured thing on the planet. And while it is doing that, there is a glow, a beauty – in the bumps and curves and yes even in the marks that it leaves behind.
Even in the birth itself there is a beauty in the work that has to be done to bring that baby from inside to out; a beauty in the strength to endure the hours, the wait, sometimes the pain; a beauty in the love – between the man and the woman, the woman and her baby, the man and his baby… could there be a more heart filling moment?
Truly a miracle, and at the same time, it is so common. That experience binds us all together – the homemaker and the CEO, today’s woman and her mom/grandmother/great aunt, country mom and city mom, getting-by mom and wealthy mom. We are all on the same ride. No amount of technology or modernization or medicine substitutes the months of waiting, watching your belly expand, the feeling of a life rolling over inside of you …
it is the most completely human thing that we do and I love every aspect of it!
Thus my great passion for photography was born! I want to help you preserve your own beautiful miracles, in an artful way – to give you something you can proudly display and share.

When I am not behind the camera or in the editing room, you might find me at the gym or with my nose buried in a fitness book – a new passion I discovered a few years ago! Read more about that at www.fit-ographer.com
