“I looked at websites of many family photographers who were recommended to us. Many of the photos were beautiful. But none consistently captured the moment, people’s personalities, or the relationship of family members to each other, like yours did.

I read reviews about how amazing you were at putting kids and parents at ease and enabling them to be themselves.

I could see from the photos that this was true.”

Hi, I’m Meredith.

I turn your everyday moments into lasting heirlooms.

As a full-service photographer, I believe in commemorating your lives and putting printed products into your homes.

Most photographers offer the unfinished “just the digitals” disservice to lose in some cloud. I create uniquely meaningful physical keepsakes to adore forever.

Flipping through these family albums 20 years from now, flooded with all the love and memories held in their pages, you’ll thank yourself for taking the time to celebrate these moments and invest in your children’s future.

Whether it’s your first family heirloom or your 15th, there’s no substitute for holding tangible memories in your hands. They deserve more than corrupting on a hard drive. Take a break from the screens. Memorialize your life with heartfelt albums and glorious wall art to always come home to.

Celebrate your family’s milestones and love.

Your session is a fluffy pancake day in and of itself.

Breathe a sigh of relief knowing that while time moves fast (way, way too fast) you’ll walk away from a surprisingly delightful afternoon with beautiful collective memories of a day shared, and GASP even enjoyed.

Oh, and amazing lasting heirlooms of your journey to always come home to.

Pass the syrup.

“I mean who just sits around in a nice pose with matching outfits and smiles?

That is not real life. I love that you capture OUR life as it is - the ups and downs, smiles and boo-boos, snacks and crafts. You capture that moment as it is and that is what we treasure.”

FAQ

  • Welcome! I LOVE meeting new families!

    Capturing your family is SO IMPORTANT & removing any stress, freakouts or PANIC is vital.

    Take a deep breath of happy knowing I’ve seen and embrace it all.

    I’ll hold your hand, make certain your experience is as enjoyable as possible, take as much off of your plate as possible- all with the patience of a Hershey’s kiss.

    Relax, you’re ALL in great hands.

  • Ah, the tik tok inspired ‘we just need the digitals’.

    They are available to purchase as a collection, but are considered an ‘unfinished service’.

    A WHAT? Yup. Even though you’re convinced ‘one day’ you’ll ‘do something with all these digitals’ … Newsflash! You never will.

    If you choose to print them (badly) with commercial printers you really get what you pay for.

    The inconsistency and variation of commercial printer results (poorly calibrated prints, cheaply made non-archival paper, etc) is something I can’t guarantee.

    For the best quality lasting prints, I highly encourage you to order through my studio.

    My goal is to provide a highly personalized full-service experience and a house full of stunning images.

    If you are looking for a smaller service and investment, there are endless photographers out there who might better serve your needs.

    For events- any damn thing you please.

    HOORAY!

  • BRING THEM TO ME.

  • Bring them on!

    I’ve been photographing families for more than 2 decades (cough), and would LOVE the opportunity to answer ANY questions, address any concerns, or share the faces of my shitzus on a quick phone or zoom call.

    I’d love to hear from you :-)
