What photography services do you specialize in?
I specialize in newborn, baby, child, and family photography with a natural, lifestyle approach. Sessions focus on capturing authentic moments rather than posed portraits.

Sessions take place in clients' homes, local parks, or urban settings in the Franklin/Nashville area. I also travel to Raleigh, North Carolina for sessions.

Sessions include 1-2 hours of photography, a private online gallery with 40+ edited images, and 10 high-resolution digital downloads. Wall art and albums available separately.
How do you handle newborn safety during sessions?
Newborn sessions follow strict safety protocols with parent supervision. I never pose babies independently and use composite editing for creative images requiring additional safety precautions.
