But if you want photos that feel like your real family — messy, joyful, and full of movement — you’re in the right place.
If you’re looking for stiff poses and forced smiles, I’m probably not your photographer.
Hi, I’m Stephanie.
I photograph families because I believe childhood is fleeting, imperfect, and deeply meaningful — exactly as it is.
I don’t believe kids need to behave to be worthy of beautiful photos.
I don’t believe parents need to perform.
And I don’t believe memories should feel forced.
Some of the most meaningful moments happen when things aren’t “perfect.”
As a mom myself, I understand the hesitation — the worry that your kids are “too much” or that things won’t go smoothly.
That’s exactly why I photograph the way I do.
If you value connection, honesty, and emotion over perfection, I’d love to photograph your family.
