However your family moves through the world,
that’s what I want to photograph.

Hey, I’m Jenna.

I photograph families the way they really are—full of movement, personality, and the kind of connection you can't fake. What I love most are the in-between moments: muddy feet, kids running wild, hands reaching for someone they love. No stiff poses, no forced smiles—just real life, documented as it unfolds..

my sessions aren’t about perfection. they’re about you—your family, your connections, the season of life you’re in right now.

Maybe that means running barefoot through a field, jumping in the creek, or grabbing sno-cones at your favorite spot. Maybe it means a quiet morning at home, baking cookies or piling onto the couch together. However your family moves through the world, that’s what I want to photograph.

The magic isn’t in trying to make kids sit still and smile at the camera. It’s in the way they throw their arms around you without thinking, the way their little hands reach for yours, the way their laughter fills the air when they’re caught up in the moment. It’s in the way you look at them—so much love in one tiny second. That’s what I want to capture.

Latest session

And I want these photos to feel like home when you look at them. Not just pretty pictures, but moments you can step back into. I want you to remember how small their hands were, how their giggles sounded, how they always insisted on wearing that one favorite outfit. I want these photos to bring you right back—not just to how it looked, but how it felt.

So if you book a session with me, here’s what I want you to know: Your kids don’t have to "behave" perfectly. There’s no need to stress if they’re extra wiggly or a little grumpy. I promise—I’ve seen it all, and it’s all part of the story. Just love on them, be present, and let me handle the rest. I’ll send you a styling guide, help plan out any little details, and about two weeks after our session, you’ll have a gallery full of images that are so much more than just pictures. They’ll be proof of the love, joy, and chaos that make up this beautiful life you’re building.

because time moves fast.

And one day, these photos will be more than just something to hang on a wall—they’ll be part of your family’s history. A way for your kids to remember what it felt like to be little. A way to hold onto this season, even after it’s passed.

If that sounds like what you’re looking for, I’d love to tell your story.
