One day these won’t 'just' be photos.
The moments you will one day miss rarely announce themselves while you are living them.
They feel like an ordinary night. A season you assume will stretch a little longer. A version of you that feels unfinished, not quite ready, not quite something you think to hold onto yet.
But life moves the way it always does. Quietly. Relentlessly. It changes the faces in the room. It closes chapters without asking if you needed one more day.
Time does not wait for you to feel ready.
It carries you forward anyway.
And suddenly, this season will not feel ordinary.
It will feel sacred.
The Moments That
Don't Warn You.
That Shift Happens Quietly.
almost without notice
Just a gradual distance between then and now.
Until something in your home stops you.
An album pulled from a shelf.
A piece of your life hanging in plain sight.
And suddenly you are not looking at an image.
You are looking at proof.
Proof that love lived here.
Proof that this was home.
Proof that you showed up.
This Is Meant to Feel Different.
This portrait experience is designed to meet you exactly where you are.
Intentional. Unhurried. Guided with care.
Nothing about it requires you to become someone else. You are simply invited to show up as you are.
Because the point is not to wait for a version of life that feels finished.
It is to honor the one you are living right now.
We start with a conversation about the season you are in and what feels important right now. We talk through location, timing, and the overall tone you are drawn to. This is where the experience takes shape so it reflects your life honestly instead of fitting you into a preset idea.
This step sets the foundation and removes the guesswork before we ever pick up a camera.
The Experience
This is not about rushing through a checklist or manufacturing moments that do not belong to you. It is about creating space for what is already there. The way you naturally interact. The way your people lean toward each other without thinking. The atmosphere of this season, exactly as it exists right now.
On the day of your session, you do not need to perform or have a plan. You are gently guided through movement and interaction in a way that feels natural and unforced. There is space for quiet moments, real connection, and the in between that often ends up meaning the most.
You stay present. I take care of the pacing, direction, and details.
After your session, your images are carefully curated with intention. From there, we design how they will live on. Albums, artwork, and pieces for your home are chosen thoughtfully so this season does not fade into a folder.
The goal is not just to remember this time, but to give it a place in your everyday life.
01. We begin with intention
02. You show up. i guide the rest.
03. we create something that lasts.

When searching for a family photographer, I always look for someone who allows my kids to be fully themselves. I love when a photographer makes us feel comfortable in front of the camera and truly values us for who we are as a family rather than what they want us to be in front of their camera. I love that Eryn truly embraces her clients with ease and respect. She guided us with gentleness and made the experience so fun! When we left the session, we could not wait to see the results of our wild, crazy, crew!
