A Day in The Life

Real. lifestyle. Completely You.

Imagine this—your kids piled on the couch for morning cartoons, pancake batter on little fingers, your dog sneaking a taste. Later, a backyard adventure, a favorite book before nap time, and those in-between moments that make up your everyday magic. That’s what a Day in the Life session is all about.

For up to six hours, I’ll step into your world—not as a director, but as a quiet observer capturing your family’s story as it unfolds. No stiff poses, no forced smiles, just real, beautiful life. Whether it’s a slow Saturday morning in PJs, a trip to the farmer’s market, or an afternoon of sidewalk chalk and giggles, these are the moments you’ll want to remember.

Because one day, you’ll look back and realize—this was the good stuff.

Ready to freeze time (without the pressure of perfect hair or matching outfits)? Let’s make it happen.

For up to four hours, I’ll step into your world—not as a director, but as a quiet observer capturing your family’s story as it unfolds. No stiff poses, no forced smiles, just real, beautiful life. Whether it’s a slow Saturday morning in PJs, a trip to the farmer’s market, or an afternoon of sidewalk chalk and giggles, these are the moments you’ll want to remember.

Ready to freeze time (without the pressure of perfect hair or matching outfits)? Let’s make it happen.

Your Day in the Life session includes 4 - 6 hours of storytelling magic, where I’ll capture the real, unfiltered moments of your everyday. You’ll receive EVERY edited image from your gallery—because every detail matters—and a stunning 12x12 velvet-covered album with 20 pages filled with the heart of your family’s story. No posing, no pressure—just the beauty of your life, exactly as it is. 

These sessions are for the mamas who want to freeze time, to remember the way tiny hands reach for yours, the giggles over breakfast, the cuddles on the couch, and the everyday chaos that makes your family yours. Years from now, these will be the moments you miss most—the little in-between things that feel ordinary now but are truly extraordinary. Let’s document them together. Book your session today and let’s tell your story.
