I love creating first birthday backdrops of all kinds. I’ve had the joy of creating various themes over the years, but lately I’ve fallen in love with an all-white backdrop, soft natural light, and just a few thoughtful and minimal touches like a cluster of white balloons and a classic white cake. The main reason […]
Lilly’s first birthday cake smash was such a joyful and beautiful session to capture in our Saratoga Springs studio. It’s always an honor when families return to celebrate another milestone! I photographed big sister Reilly’s cake smash a few years ago, so getting to welcome them back for Lilly’s first birthday was truly a special […]
Every year, I love taking a moment to pause, reflect, and look back on all the milestones I’ve had the honor of documenting. This Best of 2025 post is dedicated to my very favorite subjects-babies! From sleepy newborns and smiley milestone sessions to joyful cake smashes, this year was overflowing with chubby cheeks, curious eyes, […]
Milestone sessions are always so much fun. First birthday’s are the best because they are becoming their own little person and you can see their personality, which I just love. For sweet baby Wolfe’s first birthday session we went all out with a Harry Potter cake smash with a light & airy Hogwarts backdrop. Before […]

Happy birthday, Elowyn! It’s hard to believe this sweet girl is already one. It feels like we were just in my Saratoga Springs studio to capture her newborn portraits – including her big sister Brynnlee pushing her in my favorite stroller. Now, she’s a big one year old! We celebrated her first birthday with a […]
I’ve been lucky enough to photograph this sweet boy and his family since the day he was born! (Who remembers the maternity session I photographed in the hospital, just hours before the baby was delivered? That was Thomas!). He is rounding out his year with the Collective Membership, and we’ve enjoyed documenting all of his […]
