The Experience
Your motherhood journey, captured with the warmth and nostalgia of film.
Your motherhood journey
As a film photographer, I specialize in capturing maternity, newborn, and family photography in a way that feels organic and deeply personal. Whether you're documenting the beauty of pregnancy, welcoming your newborn baby, or preserving the magic of your growing family, my approach is all about creating timeless images on film.
With my film photography sessions, you can choose between a brief, intimate session or a full experience that tells the complete story of this season in your life.
What’s Included In Your Session
From the start, I want to connect with you and truly understand what this session means to you. Through a detailed questionnaire, we’ll explore your motherhood, pregnancy, or family journey, ensuring that the final images reflect your story. We’ll collaborate through emails, text, and voice notes to plan your session, discuss styling, and curate a vision that feels true to you.
Collaboration
The session experience is laidback and deeply intentional. Film photography allows us to slow down, giving you and your family space to connect and simply be present together. No pressure for perfection, just real, heartfelt moments. Whether you're expecting a baby, holding your newborn, or embracing the chaos of life with toddlers, we’ll create an environment where you feel at ease, allowing your love and connection to shine through.
Presence
Unlike digital photography, where you have to sift through hundreds of images, film photography is all about quality over quantity. Based on the session you book, you’ll receive a carefully curated selection of timeless images.
1 roll of film = approximately 20 final images
Film is sent out for professional development and scanned into high-resolution digital images.
You receive your film scans in a private online gallery, ready for viewing, sharing, and ordering heirloom-quality prints.
Tangibles
Your memories deserve to exist beyond a screen. I offer fine art prints and heirloom albums through my preferred print lab, QT Albums. These museum-quality prints ensure that your photos remain vivid and timeless for generations to come.
