A peak into all the Fall fun we have been having with our JLP clients!! Can I just take a second to say thank you for everything! Fall is a crazy time of the year, but these families show up well dressed, on time, and ready to rock their sessions. I enjoy each and every...
This year, I reached out to my clients in our Facebook group to find out what they wanted. “MORE MINI’S!!” was the most common response. So I thought about how I could incorporate different types of mini’s in throughout the year. Halloween hit the list… because I mean how adorable are kids in costumes?! I...
Another beautiful string of Christmas tree mini sessions! Love each of these families! They are all so wonderful to work with!!
These campfire mini’s sessions are some of my favorite images to date. I loved how the set ups were pulled together, the idea, and how much the kids enjoyed them too. Plus, I had three beautiful families to work with! 🙂 THE C FAMILY – THE M FAMILY- THE C FAMILY –

I’m beyond grateful for every single client this year; whether you’ve been with me for years or we met for the very first time in 2025. Thank you for trusting me, welcoming me into your lives, and allowing me to tell your stories through my lens.
This year brought so many new families and so many familiar, favorite faces. Your bookings, referrals, kind words, engagement, and continued trust truly mean more to me than I can ever put into words. I wouldn’t be here without you, and I’m endlessly thankful for each of you.
In 2025 I pushed myself and made moves outside of my comfort zone to be able to grow and provide my clients with my best. I also took on Senior portraits and loved every single one of them! I hope to continue that avenue in the future.
I’m already so excited to see which families 2026 will bring and to create even more magic together. ✨
Mark those calendars for January 16th—Beach Minis, Mommy & Me, and Lavender Field Minis will be launching!
If you’re looking for 2026 portraits, reach out soon, the calendar for business and personal is filling up fast.
Grateful for everyone who’s here. Humbled and thankful. Always. 🤍
🌞 “The Summer She Turned 14” 🌊
This year, we celebrated my daughter’s birthday with a beach session inspired by her theme — the summer I turned 14. Golden light, ocean breeze, and all the carefree joy of being fourteen. We also took a moment to capture something even closer to her heart: dance. 🩰 💛
These in-between years — where they’re still our babies but growing into something incredible — deserve to be remembered, celebrated, and frozen in time.
📸 Whether it’s a birthday, a session to honor a passion like dance, or you’re dreaming of senior portraits, now’s the perfect time to start planning.

Your photography style is best described as light-filled, soft, and emotive with a strong emphasis on connection and warmth.
• Light & Airy: You use bright natural light with soft shadows, pastel tones, and creamy whites that create an ethereal, dreamlike feel.
• Warm undertones: Most images have a gentle golden or peach warmth, especially in outdoor shots during golden hour.
• Soft Focus & Smooth Skin Tones: Babies and families are captured with delicate skin tones and gentle detail, emphasizing a pure, clean look.
• Family-centered: You focus heavily on relationships—siblings, newborns, maternity, and mother-child bonds. Emotions like tenderness, joy, and love are clearly at the forefront.
• Natural posing: Your subjects are often interacting—hugging, smiling, or gently touching—which adds to the authenticity of your work.
• Studio & Lifestyle: You balance in-studio portraiture (newborns, milestones, pets) with natural, lifestyle outdoor sessions (family, maternity, children).
• Nature-infused backdrops: Fields of flowers, beaches, and tree-lined paths appear often, reinforcing a peaceful, organic vibe.
• Whimsical touches: You subtly incorporate whimsical details like floral crowns, birthday hats, or ballet jumps to add personality while still keeping things elegant.
Overall Style Summary:
Romantic, clean, and heartfelt storytelling with a timeless, feminine touch. Your portfolio feels like a visual love letter to childhood, motherhood, and family.
