my philosophy

My approach to photography is all about capturing real love, sunlight, and the little in-between moments that matter the most.

 

Whether you're in the thick of toddler giggles, newly engaged, gearing up for senior year, or just want to freeze this season before it changes, I'm here to help you hold onto those special moments.


Every session is laid-back, natural, and tailored to your vibe. No stiff posing. No pressure. Just connection, movement, and that good golden light.

 

Life is filled with irreplaceable moments that can slip away with time. I’m here to help you capture and keep them vivid.

A Little Note From Me

This past year has brought significant personal change for our family. Because of that, I am approaching my work with more intention in this season. In 2026 & 2027, I am keeping things simple and focused with shorter sessions and limited availability. This allows me to serve my clients wholeheartedly while also protecting space for rest, healing, and the life we are building behind the scenes.


Photography still means so much to me. Telling your stories is an honor I do not take lightly. I am simply learning how to do it in a way that feels sustainable and aligned with this chapter of my life.



If you have been thinking about booking, I would love to work together while dates are available. Thank you for still being here and for trusting me with the moments that matter most.

 

with so much love, Dana.

Frequently asked questions

What should I wear for our session?

Keep it simple, comfortable, and true to you. I recommend neutral or earthy tones with minimal patterns- think textures over logos. Soft fabrics, layers, and movement-friendly clothes always photography beautifully. Checking out Pinterest inspo that coincides with your season is also a huge help! Still lost? Send me message and I'll be happy to send over a style guide to help you feel confident and coordinate with ease.

What if my kids, pets, or husband don't cooperate?

Totally normal. Honestly? I expect it. I don't show up for picture-perfect.  I show up for real life. Wiggly toddlers, distracted chocolate labradors, reluctant husbands who "didn't sign up for this"... I've seen and shot it all. I guide sessions in a way that keeps everyone relaxed and moving the best I can. We pause, play, throw out a few off-color jokes and let the moments unfold. That's where the magic tends to happen and it doesn't need perfection.

How long until we get our Photos?

You'll receive a sneak peek within the first 2 weeks after your full session, and at 6 weeks for the entire gallery. For mini session, your entire gallery will be delivered 3-4 weeks. If I ever need a bit longer, I'll communicate clearly and keep you in the loop!

Do you offer studio, extended family, or wedding photography?

At this time, I'm only booking outdoor or in-home lifestyle sessions for families, couples, maternity, and seniors. I don't offer weddings or other long format sessions at this time. I'm keeping things short & sweet to allow me to pour my heart into the stories I do tell during this season of my life.
