family, couple, & portrait photography
I accept a limited number of commissioned projects each season, including families, couples, and individual portraits, photographed locally in Santa Rosa Beach, FL.
Sessions unfold outdoors—often within state parks and natural areas—guided by light, movement, and presence rather than posing or performance.
These sessions are unhurried and responsive. I offer gentle guidance when needed, then step back to allow space for what naturally emerges.
Photographs made slowly, collaboratively, and with care.

This work is well suited for people who value presence over perfection— who want photographs that feel lived-in, honest, and reflective of real connection.
If you’re drawn to natural light, movement, and images that feel more like memory than performance, we’ll work well together.

Session are slow-paced and collaborative. I’ll offer gentle guidance when helpful, then step back to allow space for what naturally unfolds.

I am based out of Santa Rosa Beach, FL, and most sessions take place outdoors in nearby natural settings. I regularly work within local state parks and preserved areas along the Emerald Coast—including locations in Santa Rosa Beach, Destin, and Panama City Beach—chosen for their light, openness, and sense of ease.
Sessions typically take place starting an hour before sunset, when the most beautiful light is available to us.
I’m also available to travel for sessions outside the area. This is offered on a limited basis and quoted separately.

Portrait sessions begin at $950, which includes a slow-paced outdoor session, and a curated collection of high-resolution digital images provided to you in an online gallery. The final number of images varies depending on the session and what naturally unfolds.
-
I believe photographs are meant to live beyond the screen—held, revisited, and woven into daily life.
While printed work is not required, I do offer thoughtfully made prints and photo albums for those who want to carry the images forward in a tangible way.
These options are available separately and shared after your session, once the images have had time to settle.

I’ve spent over a decade working with people in front of a camera. My approach has become slower and more intuitive over time— shaped by both experience and a deep respect for how it feels to be seen.
