My goal is to provide a custom, boutique experience to all the beautiful families attending your school, and make photo day a super FUN experience for your kids.

Personal and professional. I only take on a select number of Jacksonville-area schools in order to provide awesome customer service and artistic images families truly cherish..

The children in front of my camera are captured authentically. I will never force a smile. No awkward poses, weird props, or faces, just the authentic child. The results are genuine and timeless portraits that are far from the traditional unflattering cheesy photos we have become accustomed to. I provide a fun experience for your children and do everything I can to create an environment where the kids can relax and be themselves.

“Thank you so much for capturing (in my opinion) some of the most memorable school photos I’ve ever seen. This is our oldest daughter's last year here and it’s been—unexpectedly—emotional. Thank you again for making these so special and giving us something we will cherish for the rest of our lives!

 FAQs

  • I provide all equipment and personnel needed for photo day.

    I provide the school with all high resolution digital files to use for yearbooks, website, school advertising, school ID's, or however the school wishes to use the images.

    I handle any questions from parents and families about ordering and products.

    I take staff and class photos depending on the school’s needs.

    I am willing to work with schools to provide custom services that fit unique needs.

    Each child will be provided 5-10 images. The family may chose the photos they want printed, as opposed to having a pose chosen for them. I also provide boutique product choices such as canvas gallery wraps and digital images for future printing and archiving. A detailed PDF describing all ordering procedures and photoshoot day preparation will be provided to each school to be distributed to families prior to photo day.

  • Nothing! I get paid when parents order their photos.

  • Everything is done online! Families are linked safe, online ordering galleries. Galleries are set up according to grade or classroom, whichever makes sense for the school. 

  • In these sessions, I am looking to photograph the child as a real person with a personality—letting kids being kids. There's no pressure to perform or pose a certain way. I encourage them to relax and just be themselves, whether they’re feeling playful, shy, or anything in between. This approach produces more meaningful portraits that parents actually want to display on the wall at home. This leads to higher self-esteem for the child.

  • I provide competitive rates and nothing is due up front, all profit is made from ordering. I offer a variety of collections and a-la-carte products to fit everyone's needs.
