I’m a lifelong photography lover who believes your family’s story deserves to be remembered, not rushed. As a Pensacola family photographer, my heart is helping families slow down and savor this season of life, because I know firsthand how quickly it passes.
My sessions are relaxed, natural, and pressure free. I encourage parents not to worry about perfect behavior or perfect smiles. Kids are meant to be kids, and the most meaningful images happen when families are simply loving on each other. I use gentle prompts and simple guidance to create space for real connection, not stiff posing.
In addition to being a photographer, I’ve spent 22 years in elementary education, working with children and families every day. That experience shapes everything I do during your session. I understand child behavior, family dynamics, and how to create a calm, positive environment where kids feel safe to be themselves. It’s one of the reasons my sessions are easygoing, flexible, and genuinely fun for families.
This philosophy comes from experience, not just behind the camera, but in my own life. My children are grown now, and I understand deeply how fleeting these years are. That season of bedtime stories, sandy toes, and belly laughs feels endless while you’re in it, until one day you realize it wasn’t. That is why I care so much about preserving it well.
There is nothing more fulfilling to me than knowing I’ve helped a family hold onto moments they might otherwise forget. The quiet in between moments. The laughter. The way your child still fits perfectly in your arms.
If it has been a while since your last family photos, or if you already know how quickly time moves, I would love to help you create a timeless collection you’ll treasure for years to come.
