THE ART OF THE SESSION

GUIDED WITH INTENTION. CAPTURED WITH HEART.

 

 

Let’s be honest—kids are wiggly, pets are unpredictable, and sometimes the most meaningful moments are the ones you could never plan for. That’s what I love most about what I do.

 

My sessions are not about perfection. They’re about connection, personality, and capturing the spirit of who you are in this season of life—whether that’s the bold energy of a child, the soulful gaze of your dog, or a quiet, empowering moment of self-celebration.

 

From the moment you inquire, I’ll guide you through the process with care. We’ll talk about styling, mood, and how to prepare (without the stress). My Burlington studio is a soft, private space where you can relax, laugh, move, and just be. Whether we’re chasing a toddler, bribing a pup with treats, or capturing a glowing maternity portrait—you’ll never have to wonder what to do next. I’ll direct you gently, adapting the session to flow with your energy, not against it.

 

After your session, you’ll receive a beautifully curated gallery to revisit and relive the experience. You’ll have the opportunity to choose your favorites and preserve them through high-end digital collections or printed artwork designed to last.

 

This isn’t just about photos—it’s about honoring the fleeting, the messy, and the extraordinary moments that make your story yours.
