I love photographing children of all ages! There is a misconception that milestones only take place during a baby’s first year, but childhood is filled with moments worth remembering. From missing teeth and first days of school to growing personalities, favorite hobbies, and changing smiles, every stage tells part of your child’s story.
Children grow and change so quickly, and portraits allow you to freeze those fleeting moments in time. Professional portraits are more than just photographs — they become treasured memories for both you and your child for years to come. Whether your child is shy, silly, adventurous, or full of energy, each session captures who they are right now in a beautiful and authentic way.
You can choose to update your child’s portraits at any age, whether yearly, for birthdays, seasonal sessions, or simply because you never want to forget this stage of life. One day, these images will become some of your family’s most cherished keepsakes.
Not to be used as a high school senior/graduation session.
Here are some of the stages you will want to capture with beautiful professional photographs.
Toddlers – Ages 2 to 3 Years
The first year flew by! Welcome to the vibrant world of toddlers. Your child is expressing emotions (yep, even those tantrums!), figuring out who’s who, possibly being a bit shy with new faces, saying “NO” more often, and exploring everything around them. While capturing this age can be quite the challenge, it’s genuinely my favorite!
PreSchool- Ages 3 to 5
It’s all about play during these delightful years! Your child is busy discovering their world and building valuable social, cognitive, and creative skills. How do they do this? Through play! For these ages, we love incorporating something special they can interact with during the session to keep their interest and make fun a priority.
Elementary Years 5-9
Even if your child has had school pictures taken, having a dedicated session allows us to connect and capture their unique personalities. Children at this age can focus their attention longer, follow directions, and carry on a conversation about their favorite things. These sessions often bring out a wonderful variety of poses and expressions.
The In-Between Years 10-15

I cannot wait to meet you and get to know more about your session vision. If you are a new client all you have to do is fill out the Consultation Request Form and we can work out a time for your portrait consultation. If you are an existing client, and want to skip the consultation, you can go directly to the session store and book your session. All sessions require a non-refundable deposit. Deposits are a way for people who would like to work with me to show good faith and commitment. The deposit amount for Milestone sessions is $25 and must be paid when booking your portrait session. The remaining balance is due before the start of your session. Cash only if you choose to pay the day of your session.
After your deposit is paid, you will be sent a link to the portrait contract and a questionnaire (if doing a phone consultation, otherwise we go over everything at your in person consultation) once completed your time and date will be added to the schedule.
