Nashville Family Photographer
Documentary style family photos that capture your real, beautiful, messy life…
exactly as it is right now.
"You won’t regret having that season of your life captured, even if it’s messy or chaotic. When you watch it back, you will have tears of joy and mourning and be filled with smiles and thankfulness that such beauty was captured. My heart is so grateful."
-Lauren
What if someone was paying attention to all of it?
The way he reaches for your hand without thinking. The micro moments of your life that later, you’ll wish to remember.
The ordinary Tuesday afternoon that, someday, you would give anything to live again.
I notice the things you're too busy living to notice.
And then I make sure you never lose them.
Just your real life, held carefully, and handed back to you.
I believe that when families slow down and connect, that magic naturally happens.
When I am invited into a family's life, I am able to capture their unique story and show the world and them that there is so much meaning to the mundane.
A family's willingness to be vulnerable allows us to create a film and photos full of honesty and love.
Hesitant Husband?
Tell him it's not a photo shoot. (Because it isn't.)
There's no Pinterest backdrop. No "okay everyone look at the camera." No one telling him to tuck in his shirt or angle his chin.
My sessions are built around real life … which means your husband gets to just be himself, with the people he loves most. Most of the time, he forgets I'm even there.
At the end of the session, he takes a deep breath and comments on how easy it was.
"My husband actually enjoyed taking these photos … which is really saying a lot." - Sarah.
Our phones make us think we are capturing our daily life, but I think in 10-20 years, we will have some regrets.
I think we will regret prioritizing fall family photos that don’t capture the life we’ve built.
I predict our children will struggle to find the digital nuggets lost on a cloud somewhere. I want to help families preserve their REAL life memories so that their kids and their grandchildren will be able to revisit the stories of their parents and grandparents.
A Day in the Life Photography Session aims to tell the story of this season.
This type of session will leave you in a puddle of tears realizing you just gave your kids the most precious time capsule.
A gigantic gallery of photos that you never have to choose from to hand down for generations to come.
No stressing about outfits, cooperation, or poses.
I will guide you just enough that you feel completely comfortable just being with your family. This will enable me to capture your family in a very authentic way, without the awkwardness
Why Hire Me?
It's about so much more than the photos
In my 10+ years in photography, I have learned 3 things: your kids don't care if you haven't lost the baby weight, you deserve to be seen for the amazing parent you are, and you have to make time for the things that matter most in life.
The most common reason I hear from clients is that they want to book a session to remember their children in the season they are in now.
And after working with so many families, I can assure you that this will be the most fun and easy session you have ever had. It will seem effortless.
