Rochester Hills Portrait & Family Photography
An unhurried, intentional approach to capturing the small, ordinary moments you remember.
An unhurried, intentional approach to capturing the small, ordinary moments you remember.
Based in Rochester Hills, Michigan, and serving Oakland County and Metro Detroit, I'm a photographer, mother and wife, drawn to the simple poetry of family life: the way afternoon light falls across a kitchen, the laugh you weren't ready for, the hand resting on a shoulder.
My work is rooted in authenticity. I won't pose you into a stranger; I'll set the scene, give a gentle direction, and let your story unfold. The result is a body of timeless, heirloom imagery you'll return to for years.

A simple three-step rhythm that takes the guesswork out of the experience and leaves space for the real moments to surface.
We start with a call or coffee. I listen to what matters, who matters, and the kind of imagery you've been daydreaming about. Then I draft a session plan: location, timing, palette, and a styling guide for your family.
On the day, expect gentle direction rather than rigid posing. I create the conditions for ease, then step back and let the story unfold at a pace that fits the session.
After your session, you'll receive a private, edited online gallery. From there, you can download, print, share, and choose any additional images you love.
I take a limited number of sessions each month so I can stay present for every family I work with. Message me and we'll find a time.
