A self growth journey that began in September 2020 led me to not only embrace myself as I am, it also taught me how to show up for myself in a way that has completely transformed my life and I want to share it with you! Ready to love yourself in photos?

So how do we slow down and appreciate the longer days?

Golden hour photography is like catching sunlight in a bottle, freezing magical moments in time. It's a warm hug for your photos, making textures pop, infusing warmth, and giving skin tones a lovely, radiant glow.

Being at home for your session helps make the experience less overwhelming. I’ve included my top five reasons in home photo sessions are magical for every family!

The secret ingredient in my portraits and the feelings they infuse is magic.

Speaking of damn fine, let me introduce you to Kim Mascis, co-owner of Mascis Garvey Homes. Not only is Kim an amazing woman, wife, mother and business owner, she is also my sister and one of my greatest teachers.

When you get to photograph a sleep consultant, you end up with a dream session! Meet Sarah Bossio, a Certified Pediatric Sleep Expert Based in New Jersey and owner of Your Zen Baby Sleep.

Providing space for your child to express themself during the photo session is like pushing a magic button to authenticity. I want you to imagine their face when coloring, or playing their favorite game... that is the face I'm looking to capture!

I was honored to photograph Courage in Time's first ever bereaved mama event, Grieving & Receiving: A Day of Wellness held in October 2023. Jillian created a special day for these mamas. She was there for them, so they would know they were not alone. She showed up as herself so others could as well.

Let me tell you, Dr. Jesse personifies the "LOVE" in Chiro Love! Together with her husband, Dr. Ike, they inspire and aid their patients in living a life of wellness. I first visited Chiro Love in 2021 and immediately felt embraced and supported. They have developed a community-centric environment centered on holistic well-being, where chiropractic care is more than just alleviating an aching back.

Imagine this: stepping outside your front door for a photo session and having it be magical!
