utah's premier young family photographer
In-home sessions are the heart of my work.
These sessions are designed to document real life as it unfolds in your home—unposed, unhurried, and deeply personal. Every session is centered on connection, not performance.
“This Is Us” sessions capture your family as a whole.
They focus on everyday routines, movement, and interaction—playing, reading, cooking, snuggling—guided gently but led by your family’s natural rhythm.
“Last Little” sessions honor one-on-one connection.
Created for just mom (and/or dad) and your youngest child, these sessions slow things down and preserve this fleeting stage with calm, intentional moments.
Newborn sessions are relaxed and baby-led.
There’s no posing or pressure. We move at your baby’s pace, taking breaks as needed and focusing on feeding, holding, and the quiet beginnings of life at home.
My role is to make space for it all.
I bring a calm, flexible presence—following your children’s lead, pivoting when needed, and allowing your family to simply be—so your images feel honest and true.
AUTHENTIC. HEARTFELT.

The most beautiful experience! Vanessa views the role of motherhood as sacred as do I, and it's so sweet to be in her presence and feel how special these moments are. She captured priceless moments in time with my toddler that I always want to hold close. I'm SO GRATEFUL for her gift in capturing the priceless moments that matter the most!

It was the most stress free photo session we’ve ever done! She really knows how to capture life in the small moments that really matter. It didn’t feel like we were posing, just living our life and enjoying being together. Our shoot happened just before moving, and I love having these memories in that home frozen in time. What a gift!
