A few days before the “snowpocalypse” of 2019, we got a normal batch of winter snow, right on the very day we had our outdoor maternity session planned. Lucky for me, this family was excited to be able to celebrate the season with snow! So off we went to a lovely, old-growth holly tree […]

Milo is 9 months old!  I got to join Milo and his wonderful parents as they took him to his first tree farm to get their family tree! From the minute they got out of the car, Milo was ALL SMILES! We had a great time walking around the farm and finding a cozy place […]

Even though I love to go to clients homes to photograph their newborn baby or their growing little Chickadee, there are many circumstances where that isn’t the best location for their child’s session. Which is why I’ve created this ‘At Home’ space for clients to bring their baby to, where we can create the same […]

Here is a common question I hear, in one form or another, from people considering birth photography: Q: ‘I feel like I will really want birth story photos after my baby is born, but I’m not sure I want more people in the delivery room while it’s actually happening–does that make sense?’ A: Oh yes, […]

Big changes ahead for this sweet family! Changes that include a change of scenery for their home port, and so to celebrate their time here in the PNW we arranged a family session at Point No Point beach. Around the same time last year we did a session when their little one was about to […]

Although our friendship is relatively new, Sara is just one of those special people who makes me feel like I’ve known her forever. She is also the master photographer behind my family photos […]

As we planned for Milo’s 6month Session, Mama asked if we could do a Milk Bath Session to celebrate another milestone: Six Month Breastfeeding! I was immediately on board–I breastfed one of my children too and I remember how huge six months felt and wanted to honor those feelings for this family. I’ve seen these […]

After my visit in WI, I hopped aboard a ferry and sailed across Lake Michigan to visit the sweetest friends! We had a grand time catching up and chatting, visiting the local science museum and playing games together! I was able to grab some more photo souvenirs of this beautiful family before I left and […]

This summer I went on a get-a-way to visit family and friends in the Lake Michigan area, and my first stop was with this sweet family in Wisconsin! They recently moved to the area and it was such a delight to get to see their new home and new town! I decided the be souvenirs […]

Oh how wonderful it is to watch a little one grow up! Sometimes it can be a little bittersweet to see it happen so quickly, but that’s what these Chickadee Sessions are all about: celebrating and remembering every little phase of that first year of growth. And Milo is growing so much and so well! […]
