Hi, I'm Denise

I'm here to capture your real-life connections, joy, laughter, love and emotion. 

I’ll help guide you into natural-looking moments that capture the essence of your family.

There will be some posed shots with everyone smiling at the camera, but during most of our session together you will play, explore, dance, snuggle and laugh while I document your family’s true personalities during this season of life that you’re in. 

PHOTOGRAPHER. STORYTELLER. MEMORY KEEPER.

we all have a story.. here's mine.

I'm a wife and a mom to two amazing young ladies, and a cat mom. If I'm not behind the camera, I enjoy spending time in my garden taking care of my collection of exotic tropical hibiscus plants, roses, irises, fruit trees, and countless other things that grow. I love music, especially live concerts (if John Mayer is in town, you can bet I'll be there!), adventures with my family, binging Netflix, and falling asleep with a good book.

I can't wait to capture your beautiful memories!

LET'S TELL YOUR STORY!

FOOD:

"Denise, thank you for your patience and knowledge and for these beautiful memories."

The wind was blowing, it was surprisingly chilly, the kids were just wanting to run and climb the rocks... I really didn't believe these pictures would turn out. I don't know how you manage it, but you made it so easy!
