Mom & photographer

I’ve been photographing families since 2017, bringing nearly a decade of experience and a calm, intentional presence to every session. Influenced by motherhood, I’m deeply aware of how fleeting each stage is and what I most want captured as a mom. My approach is natural and candid. I’ll guide you every step of the way, while leaving space for little ones to play, explore and be themselves. My aim is to capture each story in a timeless style, leaving you with heirloom images that feel just as meaningful and beautiful years from now.

I've lost count along the way, but since starting my business, I've captured over 300 families and 80+ weddings. Thank you for trusting me with so many of your special milestones!

"Angela is simply amazing! Her warm and personable approach instantly put our family at ease, even with three small kids in tow. She made the session fun, kept everyone happy, and captured the most beautiful photos for our family. These images are more than photos—they’re forever keepsakes.

"Angela's photography style captures the natural beauty of her clients. She knows how to create breathtaking emotion in her work, and she is a truly talented photographer. She knows how to use her space, lighting, and experience to capture the perfect collection of images."

"Everything about our experience with Angela was outstanding. As a couple who had limited experience with a professional photographer, she completely exceeded our expectations and made us feel at ease with the process."

the experience

While I do not offer the traditional posed style of newborn photography, I love capturing lifestyle photos of parents and babies at my studio or your home!

Sessions are always planned for daytime hours to ensure that the best possible natural lighting is available. I'll photograph a combination of your sweet baby alone and with loved ones - including you as parents and any siblings.

These sessions are relaxed and unhurried. We’ll take your baby's lead on what they need, so that there is time for feeding & changing breaks and nothing feels rushed. I also provide outfits for baby in case you'd like to choose from my newborn closet (see examples below).

If you'd like to take the stress of choosing outfits off your plate, you can leave your baby's outfit to me! I've been gathering a beautiful neutral closet for babies and am always adding new pieces.

Scheduled around 30–36 weeks, maternity sessions capture the beauty of motherhood and the incredible work your body is doing. Whether photographed alone or alongside loved ones, this chapter deserves to be artfully preserved.

Maternity

the milestones

newborn

Your baby will never be this little again! The newborn days are gone before you know it. We’ll schedule your session within the first 6 weeks to capture their sleepiest moments and tiniest features, preserving a season that goes by far too fast.

The first year passes in a blur and your baby grows more than you ever imagined. A one year session freezes this fleeting season and captures how much you've both grown over one short, beautiful year.

12 months

A brief, beautiful phase when your baby is full of smiles, curiosity and personality, but not quite on the move yet. It’s the perfect window to capture their sweet expressions and growing little self with ease.

6 months

My personal favorite stage! Your baby is still so tiny, but starting to look more like themselves, becoming more alert and expressive every day. Best of all, they melt into mom’s arms for the sweetest snuggles, offering the most stunning portraits. We can also do your newborn session at this stage instead.

How do we schedule our newborn session?

Newborn sessions are designed with flexibility in mind. Because babies arrive on their own timeline, I'll reserve space on my calendar for you around your due date, and we’ll choose a session date once your baby has arrived. Newborn sessions are typically scheduled within the first 2–4 weeks after birth when babies are most naturally sleepy and comfortable. Once your baby arrives, please reach out within a few days so we can plan a session date that works best for your family.

When will we receive our images?

Your images will be delivered via an online gallery within 3 weeks of your session date. From there, you can view, download and order heirloom-quality prints with ease. Thank you in advance for your patience as I handpick, fine-tune & edit each image! For newborn sessions, I'll always deliver sneak peeks within 48 hours, in case you'd like to use any as an announcement photo on social media.

what is your photoshop policy?

I personally edit each & every image to enhance the beauty that’s already there & will retouch anything that would not normally be there (like a skin blemish, baby acne, peeling baby skin, etc.). If there is anything you are worried about showing up in your final images, like patches of red skin, etc. please let me know, and I can take special care in editing these areas. Note: I do not edit watch tan lines or tan lines of any kind - so keep this in mind in the summertime.

Timeless moments. Artfully captured.
