In-the-moment imagery for the sentimentalist.
You HAVE to see how magical your family moments are:
The sweet, snuggly moments in the midst of mayhem.
The joy in the chaos.
You have to see your one-of-a-kind story that deserves SO MUCH MORE than a home on your dusty digital cloud.
Photography that celebrates the everyday moments you want to remember,
I believe
Your family portraits should be joyful, relaxed, and full of life.
Perfectly posed? Nah, that's not my style.
I strive to capture images that show your family as you ARE — the quirks, the chaos, and the connection. Expect very little 'smile and say cheese' and lots of 'yes, let's see who has the best twirl'.
I'm Ellen, and I'm ready to share your story.
I've created a delightful, one-of-a-kind photography experience the whole family will enjoy.
I'm not kidding...the kids will literally ask, "when do we get to take pictures again?"
How do I do it?
With an honest, casual approach that mirrors how I document my own family's memories.
ways to work
Whether I'm meeting you at your home or in my shared studio space, my goal is the same: family photos that are uniquely yours—candid, genuine, and full of life, reflecting the true essence of your family.
