Looking for gorgeous, natural photos—without the stress? You’re exactly where you need to be.
I make sessions simple and relaxed, so you can enjoy the moment. No stiff poses—just real, beautiful memories captured with love.
As a mom of six and a photographer for 12 years, I get it—time flies.
These sweet moments deserve to be preserved.
Let’s make this easy and create stunning images you’ll love for a lifetime.
Usually I’m the one behind the camera, but since you’re here—hi! I didn’t always plan on being a photographer, but once I started capturing the real, messy, beautiful moments of family life, I was hooked. Now it’s what I love most. I’m all about keeping things easy, laid-back, and real—so you can actually enjoy your session and walk away with photos that feel like you.
Photos that feel like you.
Natural, heartfelt photography for growing families and seniors in York, Harrisburg & Lancaster, PA.
Heirloom portraits are a sweet Southern tradition, capturing the innocence of childhood in classic, timeless prints. These portraits are making a big comeback, and I’m so excited to offer them to my families!
My hand-edited sessions are simple, quick (just 10-15 minutes), and stress-free—perfect for busy parents. I will be offering them in color but you can request black-and-white if that timeless look speaks to your heart.
We’ve done Christmas pictures, senior pictures and pictures with cows. She got my teenager to laugh and enjoy himself! It’s evident from the start that she loves what she does. She’s professional and good with directions to get you into the pose she wants! She does it all with a side of humor that is infectious. Book a session - you will not be disappointed!!
