What to Wear: Summer Photo Session Edition

It’s no lie, summer is my favorite. I love having my kids out of school, I love having a garden, and I love feeling the sun on my skin.  As far as photography goes, summer also brings with it beautiful landscapes, vibrant colors, and a sense of adventure. If you don’t mind the chance of […]

I’ve been (almost) as excited as Mom Jessica and Dad Nate – I had the honor of photographing their pregnancy announcement/gender reveal, and the lovely maternity shoot that followed.

ABOUT leslie

Now that I'm a mom, I know the secret: we don't know everything. We are growing and changing, right alongside our little ones. 
Motherhood changes us in ways we never expected.

My days may seem filled with NERF bullets, diapers, and endless laundry, but they are really filled with moments of profound connection and love as I raise my babies.

Through my lens, I strive to celebrate the beauty of motherhood in all its forms. From the messy chaos to the quiet moments, I want to honor the sacred bond between you and your child and capture the joy and wonder that it brings.
