Arrive with a messy bun & yoga pants.
Leave with gorgeous artwork of the ones that mean the world to you.
Let’s be real for a minute…
Getting beautiful portraits of you & your family is an investment in time & money. So many decisions from what to wear, location, how to do your hair & makeup, the list goes on and on. As a mom of 4, I totally get it… who has all the time & energy for that?
That’s where I come in! Pick your date and let me handle the rest. What to wear? Gotcha covered with my client wardrobe for mamas and the little ones. I’ll even style the rest of your family!
Not sure how to do your hair & makeup while juggling your little one? Rachel will be on hand to pamper you and make you look & feel gorgeous.
Have no idea where to go? Don’t worry. I have a handful of tried & true spots that make the most beautiful background for your family.
Not sure what to do with your beautiful portraits in the end? Let’s keep it simple- preserve your portraits either in an heirloom album or as framed fine art prints. Both come with a lifetime guarantee and will last for generations to come. And for those who want digitals only, that option is available too and comes with a set of printed proofs in a glass keepsake box.
So, how does that sound?

“WE CAN’T IMAGINE ANYONE MORE PERFECT”
Brooke has amazing talent. She captured such a precious time in our lives so beautifully. There’s a softness that comes through with her use of natural light and she has an eye for locations. Brooke is an extreme pleasure to work with, very professional, accommodating and kind. I look forward to working with her in the future.

“We will cherish these images for a lifetime”
We first worked with Brooke for our son’s newborn photos and first photos of us as a family of four in September 2020. She is super talented, and a wonderful person and mama! We immediately felt so comfortable with her as did our 3-year-old daughter and newborn. She simplified the process with wardrobe options and makeup. Her photo style is timeless, soft, and classic, and we will cherish these images for a lifetime! From start (the most adorable welcome gift) to finish (a beautiful package with goodies and printed images in a beautiful display box + our gallery and newborn announcements), she was professional, timely, organized, and just so sweet. Highly recommend hiring Brooke!
WHAT TO EXPECT –
Pre-session Consultation
Once you reserve your session, we will begin our pre-session consultation. This is a way for me to get to know you and your family better as well as talk about your visions & goals. We will discuss wardrobe choices & hair and makeup, as well as locations.
The Session
It’s the big day! You will receive a reminder email prior to your session which includes location details & times. I will help guide you and your family through the session as we document your genuine love for one another and the unbreakable bond that you have as a family. Snacks, water & special rewards are always in my bag for little ones.
For newborn sessions, I have everything you could need during our time together- wipes, diapers, pacifiers, a comfy couch, Netflix, magazines, snacks & drinks. I have a growing collection of fabrics & wraps to perfectly compliment my style of photography. The studio is professionally cleaned twice a week as well as between sessions.
Design & Ordering Appointment
Approximately 2-3 weeks after your session, you will receive a link to view your online gallery. Here you will see your images for the first time. You will also see wall gallery designs and album layouts. We will schedule a time to chat about how you would like to preserve and display your portraits. Choosing tangible artwork allows for your story to be told for many generations to come. I am also available to come to your home to help design a gallery wall as well. Any images not purchased will be discarded after your ordering session.
DELIVERY OF ARTWORK
Once your heirloom album or fine art framed printed is ready, you’ll receive an email with delivery details. All framed artwork is delivered ready for you to hang so that you can enjoy your artwork right away.
