The Experience
Your motherhood journey, grounded in connection, guided with care, and captured with the intentional beauty of film.
Your motherhood journey
As a film photographer, I specialize in capturing maternity, newborn, and family photography in a way that feels organic and deeply personal. Whether you're in the thick of early motherhood, raising teenagers, or welcoming a new baby into your home, this experience is made for you.
I know how much you carry, and how hard it can be to pause.
That's why I've created a process that feels more like an exhale than a task on your to-do list.
My sessions are slow, thoughtful, and entirely captured on film.
Film invites us to be present. It’s not about snapping endlessly, it’s about waiting, witnessing, and honoring what’s real.
Because you don’t need more images, you need the right ones.

What’s Included In Your Session
From the start, I want to connect with you and truly understand what this session means to you. Through a detailed questionnaire, we’ll explore your motherhood, pregnancy, or family journey, ensuring that the final images reflect your story. We’ll collaborate through emails, text, and voice notes to plan your session, discuss styling, and curate a vision that feels true to you.
Collaboration
The session experience is laidback and deeply intentional. Film photography allows us to slow down, giving you and your family space to connect and simply be present together. No pressure for perfection, just real, heartfelt moments. Whether you're expecting a baby, holding your newborn, or embracing the chaos of life with toddlers, we’ll create an environment where you feel at ease, allowing your love and connection to shine through.
Presence
Unlike digital photography, where you have to sift through hundreds of images, film photography is all about quality over quantity. Based on the session you book, you’ll receive a carefully curated selection of timeless images.
1 roll of film = approximately 20 final images
Film is sent out for professional development and scanned into high-resolution digital images.
You receive your film scans in a private online gallery, ready for viewing, sharing, and ordering heirloom-quality prints.
Tangibles
Your memories deserve to exist beyond a screen. I offer fine art prints and heirloom albums through my preferred print lab, QT Albums. These museum-quality prints ensure that your photos remain vivid and timeless for generations to come.

Why Film
Film slows me down, and invites you to slow down too.
It requires trust, presence, and a different kind of attention.
It renders softness in a way digital never could, capturing skin, light, and emotion with a warmth that feels like memory.
Every click of the shutter is a choice. Every frame is considered.
You’ll feel the difference in the process and you’ll see the difference in every image.
Emotional awareness and a mother’s intuition
A quiet, grounding presence throughout our time together
Sessions fully captured on film for timeless, artful imagery
Honest photographs that reflect your truth, not a trend
Clear communication and gentle guidance at every step
What You Can Expect From Me
“The session was so calm, so intentional. I didn’t feel pressure to perform or pose—just to be with my family. And the film images… they feel like something we’ll hold onto for decades. Like someone finally saw us the way I see us.”
— Karie L
