Hi, I’m Merry

I’m passionate about capturing your family in a way that feels like home.

Witnessing my father’s journey with Alzheimer’s opened my heart to the power of presence.

Photography became my way of honoring life as it is, by preserving your family’s legacy and the memories that matter most.

My process to capture your legacy

Your family connection is unique and is where the beauty of your love lives. Through gentle guidance, you’ll be slightly posed and encouraged to connect with each other through prompts in a relaxed way.
They way you look at each other, hold hands, and grab shirts matter. I often move in and out, to allow time for the natural details to present themselves. and trust me, they will present themselves.
Family portraits capture your legacy. Together, we will make sure your session is centered around love and presence.

“Merry flew to California to take pics of our family. We are all adults and the session was effortless and fun. We took some posed pics and some totally candid. When we got the proofs it was tough to pick but we decided and couldn't be happier. We hope to do it again soon!!”

Helen H.

“My favorite thing about my pictures are that they don’t feel staged in anyway even the classic maternity poses felt like she was capturing just another day in our life. Couldn’t be happier with the way these pictures came out!”

Janine C.

“Merry was great to work with! She’s responsive, friendly, and has a great talent to capture you and your family in their everyday life. She met us at the park, and just walked around naturally taking photos of myself
And the kids”

FAQs

Mini sessions are $250 and include 5 portraits. Additional images, prints, and products are available for purchase separately.
Our session will last about 15–20 minutes. These sessions are short and sweet, yet more than enough time to create meaningful, lasting images.
On average, your final gallery will include 10–20 images, from which you’ll be able to select your 5 favorites. If you find yourself loving more than 5 (and many do!), you’ll have the option to purchase additional images or even the full gallery.
However your child shows up is perfect. They don’t need to perform or pose, they just get to be themselves. That might feel a little scary, I know, but trust me… we’ve got this!
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and like yourself. Neutrals, earth tones, or soft colors tend to photograph beautifully, but don’t be afraid to add a pop of personality that reflects your family
