Honest. Intimate.
Story-Driven Photography.
Newborn • Maternity • Family • Branding
I don’t just take photos.
I preserve memories, the laughter, the love, and the perfectly imperfect moments you’ll treasure forever.
Hi, I’m Shirley — part photographer, part doula, part chaos navigator, full-time mom to two amazing boys.
I capture real moments — the glowing, the exhausted, the laughter-in-the-mess kind of life.
When I’m not behind the camera, I work overnight as a Postpartum Doula, cheer at my boys’ sports games, binge TV series, and always sipping coffee like it’s a survival tactic
I bring vision, care, and a little humor to every session — because life (and motherhood) isn’t meant to be perfectly posed. It’s meant to be remembered.
Maternity
Pregnancy is powerful. Transformative. Sometimes uncomfortable and still incredibly beautiful.
My maternity sessions are earthy, natural, and softly guided so you feel strong without feeling staged.
You don’t need to know how to pose. That’s my job. You just need to show up.
Newborn
The early days are tender and a little blurry, in more ways than one.
My in-home newborn sessions are calm, baby-led, and built around your real rhythm—no stiff props. No pressure. Just connection, warmth, and the way your baby fits perfectly in your arms.
These are the images you’ll come back to when the house is quiet again.
Family and Beyond
Families grow quietly. And then suddenly.
Motherhood doesn’t stop after the newborn stage — it keeps unfolding. From wobbly first steps to full family chaos that somehow feels like home, these sessions are about documenting the season you’re in right now. Gently guided, never forced, and always focused on connection — because your story deserves to be captured beyond the early days.
Branding
For the women building families.
For the women building businesses.
For the women doing both at the same time.
Whether you’re a doula, a birth worker, or simply a mother who wants to be in the frame — I create images that feel authentic, elevated, and aligned with who you truly are.
No stiff headshots.
No corporate energy.
Just you — grounded and powerful.
Maternity Experience
Pregnancy is strength wrapped in softness.
It’s transformation. It’s anticipation. It’s a body doing something wildly powerful — even on the days it doesn’t feel glamorous.
My maternity sessions are earthy, natural, and gently guided. You don’t need to know how to pose or “what to do with your hands.” I’ve got you. I’ll guide you in a way that feels effortless and still completely like you.
We’ll focus on connection — to your body, your baby, your partner, your story.
No pressure to perform.
Just honest, beautiful documentation of this season before everything changes.
What’s Included:
• 30-60 minute session
• Styling guidance + location planning
• Access to curated client wardrobe
• Professionally edited online gallery
Because this chapter deserves to be remembered — not rushed through.
Newborn Experience
The early days are tender. Emotional. A little blurry.
You’re learning your baby. Your baby is learning you. The house feels different. Time feels strange. Everything feels important.
My newborn sessions are slow and baby-led. We work around feeding, soothing, and whatever the day brings. There is no rush here.
I don’t believe in stiff props or complicated setups. I believe in documenting the way your baby curls into you. The way your partner looks at you. The way you look at your child like the world just shifted.
And yes — I will absolutely adjust the swaddle, fluff the blanket, and tell you to sit down and breathe for a second.
You don’t have to “have it together.”
You just have to show up.
What’s Included:
• 60–90 minute in-home session
• Gentle posing + natural direction
• Family + sibling images included
• Hand-edited online gallery
• Option to Upgrade to Posed Newborn Session
These are the images you’ll hold onto long after the newborn phase is gone.
Family Experience
Time moves fast, and before you know it, your little one isn’t so little anymore.
One day you’re swaddling a newborn. The next you’re chasing a toddler with big opinions and even bigger personality.
These sessions are designed to document the chapters in between — the growing, the shifting, the becoming.
Family sessions are relaxed and connection-focused. I’ll guide you gently, but nothing will feel stiff or forced. We’ll lean into movement, laughter, and the way your family naturally fits together. Sessions are all about capturing who your child is right now. The gummy smiles. The wobbly sitting. The chubby hands reaching for you.
No heavy props or pressure for perfection.
No expectation that everyone behaves flawlessly.
Just honest documentation of your real life — in its most beautiful form.
What’s Included:
• 30-60 minute in-home session or outdoor
• Styling guidance for the whole family
• Relaxed, connection-focused direction
• Parent images always included
• Professionally edited online gallery
Because one day, this version of your family will feel like a memory you’re so grateful you preserved.
Branding Experience
Elevated, authentic, and unapologetically you… That’s how your brand deserves to be seen.
For the people building families.
For the women building businesses.
For those somehow doing both.
If you’re a doula, birth worker, creative entrepreneur, or a small business owner, your brand should feel like you — not stiff, not corporate, not forced.
We’ll create images that are elevated but grounded. Professional but warm. Confident but human.
You don’t need to look “perfect.” You need to look aligned.
Whether we’re documenting you supporting families or building your own business behind the scenes, the goal is the same: images that reflect your heart and your authority.
What’s Included:
• Planning consultation + brand clarity discussion
• 60–120 minute session
• Multiple outfit changes
• High-resolution edited gallery
• Content-ready images for website + social
Because the way you show up visually matters — and your work deserves to be seen.
Why Families, Mothers, and Creatives Choose Me
I create images that feel like you — honest, connected, and entirely true to this moment in your life.
My sessions are calm, fun, intuitive, and tailored to your story, so you don’t have to worry about posing, props, or “doing it right.” I’m here to guide, capture, and help you feel seen — whether you’re welcoming a new life, celebrating milestones, or telling the story of your brand.
