On the first day of Christmas, my photographer gave to me… ✨

Holiday minis in our dreamy winter-white studio.

This year’s setup is everything: snow-dusted trees, soft twinkle lights, warm gold accents, and those lofty windows flooding the space with natural light.

It’s light, airy, elevated, and made for YOU — whether you’re:
→ Updating the family photos
→ Announcing a little one on the way
→ Snapping pics with your favorite furry friend
→ Just need gorgeous photos for your holiday cards

25 minutes. Guided posing. Cozy vibes. Coffee & donuts waiting for you.

Packages start at $450. Spots are limited — link in bio to book! 🎄

💍 Booked for “family photos.” Delivered: a surprise proposal on a private estate in Belize on a private beach and one very shocked bride-to-be. This is why I love this job. 💍 #surpriseproposal #weddingphotography #belizewedding #destinationwedding #belizetravel taken in San Pedro, Belize by @capturedbysammi
