"Mom, what were we like when we were little?"

In between packing lunches, being an uber driver, and eating a diet of food your kids didn't finish...

Raising a family is an adventure to say the least!

It can feel impossible to slow down long enough to capture the moments you never want to forget — especially when getting everyone in one photo (yes, mom included) feels like a lot to handle on your own.

(That's why there are professionals for this kind of thing!)

But the idea of stuffy, posed portraits doesn't feel like a great solution.

Strained smiles and certain family members who hate the whole process....

NO THANKS!

This is why I love lifestyle photography –– capturing families in real moments: leaf-stomping, playing peek-a-boo with the baby and tickle fight laughter.

The kinds of photos where personality and connection shine.

As a mom of two, these are the moments I care most about preserving.

Hi! I'm Mia!

If you’re looking for photos that feel more like real life than a photoshoot, you’re in the right place.

The type of photos where both kids and parents walk away thinking, “Wait… that was fun?”

I believe family sessions work best when they're a collaboration. You show up as yourselves — messy, playful, loving — and I’ll take care of the rest.

I’ll guide you when it’s helpful, then step back and let the real moments unfold. No stiff poses. No forced smiles. Just the good stuff.

Photography found me after my youngest son was born. I fell head-over-heels for capturing my boys in their everyday lives.

What started as a way to hold onto that season quickly turned into a deep commitment to learning the craft and doing it well, so those moments could be preserved beautifully, not just remembered.

Now, I get to do that same thing for other families — creating images that feel honest, joyful, and lived-in. Photos that don’t just show what your family looks like, but what it feels like to be part of it.
