Hi! I'm Christy.
Becoming a mother changed me. I didn’t fully understand unconditional love until my first baby was placed in my arms back in 2006. Photography became my way of holding onto time that moves too fast — and helping other mothers do the same.
I’m devoted to photographing the quiet connection between mother and child that exists from the very beginning, so your children will always see just how fiercely they’ve been loved — from the start and for all the years to come.
It's why I do what I do.
I know what it feels like to want everything to be perfect — and to realize, at the same time, that perfection doesn’t matter nearly as much as presence. As a mom of two myself, I’ve stood right where you are: filled with anticipation, excitement, and a hint of overwhelm as you try to do everything just right.
Over the past 17 years, I’ve guided hundreds of families through a calm, intentional experience where every detail is handled with care. You spend your days taking care of everyone else — now, it’s my turn to take care of you.
My clients call me “the baby whisperer,” and it’s a name I wear proudly.
As an artist, I’m inspired by beautiful light, tiny details, and honest emotion. My soft, organic style is rooted in presence and patience, baby-led posing and genuine connection.
The result is artwork that feels effortless, authentic, and very much you.
Just love on your people, and I'll handle the rest.
My Approach
behind the lens
When I’m not in the studio, you’ll often find me in my garden, arms full of too many cucumbers and tomatoes, or curled up with a book (psychological thrillers are my fave!) or cheering on Duke basketball.
I’m a nature lover, a homebody at heart, and a bit of a creative dabbler ... always chasing my next new idea.
A Cancer sun and moon (a born nurturer) with an Aquarius rising, I’m equal parts sentimental and curious.
My family and my work both fill my life with purpose, and I feel lucky every day to create something that helps others hold onto what they love most.
