“Because you don’t need more images, you need the right ones.”

I offer maternity, newborn, motherhood, and family photography across Seattle and Tacoma, all photographed on FILM. Sessions are designed for families who care about honest connection, thoughtful art, and a relaxed experience from the first email to the final print.

Whether you are welcoming a new baby in your Tacoma home or chasing toddlers through a Seattle park, your session is built around your real life and the way you love your people right now.

What You Can Expect From Me

  • 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

“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

Heirloom Offerings

Your photos shouldn’t live on a phone forever. I’ll help you turn them into something you can hold handcrafted albums, framed prints, and nostalgic home movies. Each piece is made to last so your kids can one day flip through and see how deeply they were loved in this season of life.

The Album

For Sonnet, Ballad and Ode packages, or as an add-on

Your story deserves to live beyond a screen. Handcrafted heirloom albums transform your images into tangible art you can hold, share, and pass down for generations.
