I’m a nature enthusiast who adores greens and wildflowers, a devoted wife, a nurturing mother, and a dedicated lifestyle photographer. I have loved taking photos since I was little and could handle a disposable camera. I have since perfected the art of seizing bright, candid moments that encapsulate your family’s authentic connections. I believe you deserve visuals that celebrate the splendor of your daily life while you navigate the delightful chaos of parenthood.
Hello! Amidst your search for a Lehi family or newborn photographer I’m so glad you came across my page. The Utah County area is my favorite area to photograph. The mountains are stunning, the lake is beautiful, and there are so many biomes to take advantage of. Not to mention the bounty of wildflowers from May-August.
There are a few main areas I love to photograph around Lehi and I’m always looking for more options. The American Fork wetlands is a spot I like to use (see photo below) as well as Utah lake, American Fork Canyon, Eagle Mountain foothills, and Alpine. The possibilities are endless and Lehi is right in the center.
My philosophy with family photos is to have sessions be naturally authentic. Too many photographers either stage photos so all you’re doing is looking and smiling without showing any real connection. Or they go to the opposite end and try poses that are cheesy and awkward trying to get a candid feel. I use prompts that not only bring out your family’s natural emotions, but that help you have a fun time while taking your pictures. No more grumpy dads or crying kids that can’t wait to be done. Your family photos will be uniquely you with the added bonus of having my artful eye make them beautiful
Every family session comes with a location guide. I’ve scouted many beautiful spots in the area for you to pick from. I also deliver a session guide which goes over so many tips to help your family look amazing as well as help the session run smoothly.
I hope you will consider me to capture beautiful family photos for you! It would be an honor to be your Lehi family photographer. Feel free to check out my main site or jump directly to my portfolio.
I love photographing lifestyle newborn sessions. There is something so sacred and sweet about bringing a new little baby into your home to join your family. Lifestyle sessions are more candid and meant to document these sweet moments and feelings of having a new little baby.
Posed newborns, on the other hand, are usually meant to document the baby by themselves in various positions and backgrounds. It’s important to know what you’re looking for when you are choosing a newborn photographer.
I think having sessions with the whole family at home are much more genuine than having just your baby in a few costumes or wraps. It really captures something you’d want to cherish for years.
While I do focus on lifestyle photos during newborn sessions, I have recently started including a couple wrapped photos of the newborn as well. Each newborn session comes with a style guide that has lots of tips for outfits as well as how to help your session run smoothly. If you’re interested in a newborn session please reach out or check out the newborn section of my site here. I’d love to be your Lehi newborn photographer!
