DOCUMENTARY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY
big love happens in the
small moments.
I truly believe there is beauty and purpose in all of life’s seasons, and taking pictures helps us celebrate and process each chapter.
Day in the Life Documentary Sessions are unposed, photojournalistic family photo sessions. I would come and spend a few hours in your home as a fly on the wall. No need to deep clean, or wear overly coordinated outfits. These sessions are about celebrating whatever season you’re in whether it’s the chaos of parenting toddlers, the joy of a multigenerational household, or the strengthening sibling bonds as your kids grow and begin to take care of each other.
My sincere hope is that these sessions will help you see the “big love in your small moments” and help you reconnect with your people and your purpose.
