Soulful Family Photography & Print Design

ROOTED IN BEAUTIFUL CENTRAL OHIO

I’VE ALWAYS BEEN FASCINATED
BY THE

Wonder

of

Childhood

Childhood is a short but cherished season, with experiences we carry with us for the rest of our lives. It’s healing to look back on my childhood, and now as a parent one of the biggest joys to provide a happy childhood for my daughter. There’s so much awe and wonder, and I’m committed to providing more than just photos to you and your family. I purposely craft a complete photography experience because I feel that creating magic moments for families and young children to enjoy together is truly special.

I WANT TO
GIVE YOU
MEMORIES
THAT CAN
BE seen, touched
AND loved

EACH STEP OF THE PROCESS
IS MINDFULLY PLANNED

“I will treasure these photos for the rest of my life.”

“EMILY IS ABLE TO FIND JOY IN THE MOMENTS BETWEEN THE CHAOS, AND EVEN IN THE CHAOS ITSELF.”

Emily gave us such a gift by photographing our family. When you see others’ pictures it always looks like this idealized version of a family. It’s easy to talk yourself out of getting photos because you think yours would never look so calm, and your kids would never behave long enough to get good pictures. Emily is able to find the joy in the moments between the chaos, and even in the chaos itself. We’re so happy we had our family photos taken by Emily - we’ll always cherish them.”

Moments are fleeting, but memories are forever

ENJOY THEM WITH TANGIBLE REMINDERS OF YOUR BEST DAYS

Hi There! I’m Emily - a seasoned lifestyle and family photographer with a nurturing soul and zest for life. My love for photography started with my photographer Grandfather. He took the most beautiful photos of my childhood in England in the 1970’s that I will forever cherish. The photos were always taken with attention to detail and so much love and joy for whatever cute kid thing I was doing. After years of taking photography classes, with my daughter as my muse, I had become completely enamored with family and newborn photography. I wanted to go all-in to build my own photography business and preserve other family’s memories with intimate and connected family photos. There's nothing more valuable than preserving your favorite memories and sharing them with your loved ones for generations. I’m excited to work together and save each special moment forever.

Heartfelt, frame-worthy candids

I’m sure you know that family life isn’t always picture-perfect, but there’s beauty in every day that you share. With lifestyle family photos, I’ll use gentle child-led direction and activities to bring out the best in your family. The result? Memories that are true-to-you. I’m ready to play, laugh, and follow your child’s lead to capture genuine moments and natural interactions you’ll want to remember.

client love notes

“EMILY WAS ONE OF THE MOST PREPARED FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHERS THAT I HAVE WORKED WITH. SHE IS AN ARTIST AND IT IS EVIDENT IN OUR PHOTOS.”

She sent us a questionnaire to fill out so that she could get to know our family better, what the kids would respond positively to, what we wanted out of the photo shoot, etc. She was in constant contact leading up to our date....She helped give pointers as to what patterns would work well together and what wouldn’t. We received our proofs within a week's time and her editing was gorgeous...
