    In-home sessions take place inside your family’s own space — the place where real life happens.
    We’ll move through your home together, documenting everyday moments, favorite routines, and the little corners that hold meaning.

    Family Story Sessions capture “a day in the life” of your loved ones.
    These stories unfold naturally through connection and engagement, without staging or pressure. Nothing is forced — everything is honest.

    My standard in-home session isn’t rushed or posed.
    It’s intentionally longer, giving your family the space to settle in, breathe, and simply be yourselves.
    This is how we document what your day feels like — not just what it looks like.

    Because that’s the story you’ll want to remember.
    And that’s why the investment reflects more than a single hour —
    it reflects time, care, presence, and storytelling.

  • Compassion.

    Compassion Session $150

    60 minute sessions

    For NICU, loss, hardship, terminal diagnosis

    These sessions are quiet, intentional, and deeply human.
    They are designed to honor your family’s story in the midst of transition, illness, or tender seasons of life.

    These moments unfold naturally — through presence, touch, conversation, and togetherness.
    Nothing is posed or forced.
    I simply create space for you to be with one another while I document the love that’s already there.

    Sessions are intentionally unhurried.
    If your family needs more than 60 minutes, extended coverage is available to allow time for rest, reflection, connection, and storytelling at a gentle pace.

    Every situation is unique.
    I offer personal consultations to discuss your family’s needs and to ensure the session feels supportive, safe, and respectful.

    These photographs become part of your family’s legacy —
    a way to remember the love, the strength, and the quiet moments that matter most.
