Documentary photography focuses on real moments instead of posed ones. Rather than directing every movement or asking everyone to smile at the camera, I observe and document your family as you interact naturally. I may offer gentle guidance when needed, but the goal is to create images that feel honest, emotional, and true to who you are — not staged or forced.

That’s completely okay — and expected. Your children don’t need to perform or behave a certain way. I photograph families exactly as they are, and those real moments often become the most meaningful images.

Yes. After booking, you’ll receive simple guidance to help you feel prepared without overthinking it — including clothing suggestions and help choosing a location if needed.

No. Real life is welcome here. Your home doesn’t need to look a certain way to be worthy of being documented.

Newborn sessions are typically scheduled during the first few weeks after your baby arrives, but flexibility is built in. I recommend booking your session while you’re still pregnant to reserve a spot on my calendar. Once your baby is born, we’ll finalize the exact date based on how everyone is feeling. These sessions are baby-led and unhurried, allowing plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and breaks.
