A Family Legacy
Some portraits are meant to be passed down. Heirloom Portraits are timeless, fine-art studies of your child — the kind that hang in your home for decades and get handed down from one generation to the next.
With a calm, intentional approach, I capture not just a likeness, but the essence of who your child is right now. As a Wake Forest children’s photographer, I approach every portrait with an artist’s eye and a mother’s heart, creating classic images that will one day become your family’s most treasured heirlooms.
Heirloom Portrait Sessions are intentionally minimal — no props, no distractions, no forced expressions. Just your child, beautifully lit and photographed with patience and care.
I use a child-led approach, ensuring your little one feels comfortable and relaxed. Whether your child is outgoing or thoughtful, playful or reserved, I’ll work at their pace to capture expressions that feel timeless and true.
After your session, you'll select an artwork collection of portraits to keep and pass on.
