Teena has been there for my family to document our life and love over the last few years. Despite the tumultuous journey with all its abrupt pauses and sharp turns, we have grown more closely together -- which was a challenge that Teena met and conquered time and time again. While the photographs and moments she creates/captures are of the best quality and the stories and physical prints, books, canvases, etc are all first rate (which also play a big role in our recurring return), it is the loving and almost familial bond that brings us back to Teena. In documenting our little family's growth and challenges over the years, Teena has provided us with generational history for my daughter to look back on... and her children and so on. We are very lucky to have found her and will always reach out when those next special life moments arrive.
"While the quality drew us in, it was the love and care that Teena showed us that left an imprint on our hearts."
Teena was amazing to work with and was so patient and wonderful with my daughter. She took her time and made my daughter feel comfortable. It was my daughter's first time having a shoot like this and her first time around horses. Teena put her at ease and didn't pressure her to do anything she wasn't ready to do. I'm so excited to see the pictures!

My goal is to create the best photoshoot experience you have ever had. Family photos are priceless reminders of moments that fly by and times that are too short. Whether you are celebrating a milestone, or just celebrating yourselves, don't let these memories pass you by.
I photograph real families in a fun and stress-free way. I let the kids be in charge (or so they think), keep the dads happy, and coordinate the beautiful chaos of parenting. Whether you are in studio or on location, I've got all the tricks to make sure you have beautiful photographs to remember these moments - without any of the stress or homework.
I know first hand that parenting is hard work and you deserve to reap the rewards. The precious baby snuggles, the giggles, and all the magic of childhood. Even the teen years. No matter how old your children are, you deserve beautiful photos that show off just how special and loved you are.

The short answer - YES! Although my studio focuses on custom artwork and heirloom products, you receive a complimentary digital file of each photo that you choose to purchase.
You order what is best for you and suits your lifestyle. I always recommend pieces for the wall because you see them every day. It's the best way to enjoy your photos. Albums, print boxes, and digital files are also popular.
Your final cost depends on how many favorites you choose and what display options are best for you. Our custom family sessions have a $400 booking fee with collections beginning at $950. Hair and makeup is included for 1 person.
Don't stress! It's my job to make you look your best. I have years of experience posing clients for the most flattering portraits. Everyone is photogenic - you just need the right photographer!
Sessions take place either at my Uptown studio or on location. Day In the Life sessions take place at your home or happy place. If you're looking for an outdoor session, I've got you covered with great locations that work beautifully for family photos.
