I strongly believe photos are one of the most valued things in a family’s home, that continues to grow in value over the years.

Time moves fast, and our little ones grow even faster—so I’ve created a seamless experience that gives you timeless images and a touch of luxury. The studio was designed for comfort and timeless beauty—with a curated wardrobe, along with hair and makeup offered in-studio—so you can relax and enjoy a seamless, meaningful photo experience.

“Jennifer is an amazing photographer! We have worked with her since our first child was a newborn. She makes everyone feel at ease, does great with the kiddos, and has a beautiful way of capturing every little detail that we find so special with our little one. Thanks so much!”
Audrey K.
“I am so happy Jennifer was recommended to me! She does absolutely amazing work and I am obsessed with all of our gorgeous newborn, maternity, and family pictures. I always have such a hard time picking photos because they’re all beautiful! Even at times when I feel like my little one isn’t being super cooperative during sessions, she always gets the best shots. I would recommend her to anyone!”
MIRELLA S.
“Jennifer is absolutely incredible. She did an amazing job with our baby’s newborn photos and is very detail oriented. If we hadn’t moved we would have continued to use her for all of our family photos. We will always treasure our baby’s photos and are so grateful that she was able to capture those moments.”
Katie C.
“Jennifer is amazing!!! She is patient, attentive, caring. She’s also quick to get everything back to you. The fact that she dresses everyone too… So easy. I cannot recommend enough.”
