PRESERVING MEMORIES FOR FAMILIES IN AN HONEST AND INTENTIONAL WAY
inquire about your session
After years of photographing everything from weddings, newborns, maternity, families, branding and more, I've realized the passion I have for capturing families, and especially maternity. Life is so busy, and I love being a part of the reason a family takes time to stop for a moment and be present together. To laugh together and make memories.
Hey! I'm Kristen.
“I’m always in love with the photos and surprised by how well she is able to capture my kids and dogs! “
Nicole Gray
After having a sweet little girl of my own, I quickly learned how hard it is to capture great photos of a child who is constantly moving. Chances are if you did get a good one, the lighting isn’t great or there is food all over their face. And don’t get me started on being in the photo with your child while simultaneously looking half put together.
These fun and crazy cell phone photos are so good to look back on, but what about those frame worthy moments where you got to be present AND look good too?
Frame-worthy photos where everyone can feel their best
A snapshot of your family life
When you take the time to schedule family photos, you’re capturing a snapshot in time of your life as a family. You get to relax, be present, have fun + leave all the worrying to the professional (me). You’re left with a beautiful memory of the time you spent together and photos to print + frame that the whole family looks great in.

your future heirlooms
Let’s talk more about your vision
Maternity photos can be something that is often overlooked by so many women. A lot of times we are hard on ourselves, “I’ve gained so much weight,” “My body doesn’t look the same,” “I’ve got stretch marks and I’m embarrassed by them.”
But we should be CELEBRATING our bodies, no matter how they look. Bringing life into this world is the most miraculous thing you can do, and those changes are a reminder of the sacrifice as well as the ability of the human body - nothing to be ashamed of.
Celebrating yourself and the miracle you're creating
Reminders of a magical time
I truly find pregnancy to be such a beautiful and magical time despite how you may be feeling in the moment. No one really talks about how much you’ll miss your belly + connecting with your little mystery before he/she arrives. Having photos to look back on will fill your heart in ways you can’t imagine + take you back to those magical little moments while you eagerly waited for them to arrive.
Taking maternity photos leaves you so much more than just a bunch of professional images. It also gives you the chance to get dressed up, do your hair + makeup, celebrate and feel good about yourself and take some time for just you.

Reviews
In their words:
"She is on our speed dial for whenever we need professional pictures for our family.
Kristen’s approach and attention to detail goes beyond what a simple 5 star review can capture. It would be an understatement if I told you she is the best. Not only she is professional, and takes every detail into consideration, but she does it with a passion that shows with every picture. She is incredible, and honestly, you cannot put a price to her work. She is on our speed dial for whenever we need professional pictures for our family. And, we have recommended her to all our friends and family."
Alex Lazcano
"She is very professional and kind, she makes me feel super COMFORTABLE while doing photo shoots.
Where do I begin, Kristen is absolutely AMAZING. She has been capturing all my special moments and I wouldn't trade her for the world. She has an eye for detail and listens to any ideas I might have. If you're looking for a photographer STOP looking and talk to Kristen you won't regret it.”
Claudia Ocon
"She was incredibly easy to work with, and made the whole experience so comfortable and fun!
We did our maternity photos with Kristen and had the best experience! Not only did we fall in the love the photos, we loved Kristen! We had never met her prior and just felt so comfortable with her. She was incredibly easy to work with, and made the whole experience so comfortable and fun! We can’t wait to work with her again for future photos!"
