Morgan had worked hard to get her sweet family all ready for the perfect fall family photos! But when she and Daniel met me to shoot, Alyssa wasn’t having any part of it.

There are no words sweeter to my artistic ears and my creative heart than “we trust you.” And with that trust comes a sweet reward of beautiful images that can be cherished for a lifetime.

I’ll prepare you to win, and if and when your kid throws us a curveball, I’ve got you. I’ve been that mom on the other side of the camera and I won’t let you down.
