A Year in Your Life
A day preserves a memory.
A year preserves thousands of little moments that become their childhood.
So much changes in a year.
Childhood changes gradually. You don’t notice the missing tooth becoming a grown-up smile, the bedtime routine disappearing, or the way they stop reaching for your hand until it has already changed.
Photographing a year lets you see and keep those changes.
A Year in Your Life is about preserving those pieces before they quietly disappear.
Your actual life, unfolding over a full year.
Instead of trying to fit your family's entire story into a single afternoon, I'll photograph you throughout the year, giving us time for personalities, relationships, traditions and everyday life to reveal themselves naturally.

HOW IT WORKS
1. We plan your year.
We’ll choose the milestones, traditions, adventures and ordinary days you want to preserve, then schedule your sessions throughout the year.
2. I photograph life as it unfolds.
Each session is 90 minutes of documentary photography focused on your family simply being together.
After each session, we’ll meet to view your photographs, choose favorites for your year-end album, and select any artwork you’d like to enjoy right away.
3. Your year becomes something you can hold.
At the end of the 12 months, photographs from all of your sessions come together in a custom-designed fine art heirloom album.
One beautiful record of what this year of your family’s life actually felt like.
How much of your year do you want to preserve?
Expecting a baby?
Six sessions are especially beautiful for a year when everything is changing.
Document the story from pregnancy through their first birthday:
Maternity Newborn 3 months 6 months 9 months 1 year
By the end, you’ll have the story of their entire first year, from waiting for them to arrive to seeing the little person they’ve become.
