Photographs are meant to be displayed! You should smile and relive the moment when you see each photograph hanging in your home.
I love being able to serve YOU with confidence and joy. Portrait sessions can be intimidating but they don't have to be! I coach you through the ENTIRE process. We weren't born being models or knowing how to pose. It's okay if you don't know what to do with your hands and feet, I do! I'll help guide you into effortless posing that looks amazing so all you have to do is relax and have fun!
Let's freeze time and create beautiful memories that you'll cherish for years to come.

How does all this work?
I've put together a style guide for the ultimate stress free experience! It contains SO MANY tips and tricks for your portrait sessions. I've included items such as choosing a location, how to coordinate outfits, how to prepare your little ones and even your husband. The style guide also walks you through what to expect before, during , and after the portrait session process.

I really want to capture this photograph!
Two weeks before your session I'll send out a portrait session questionnaire that lets me get to know you better. This allows me to serve you the absolute best that I can! You'll also be able to share with me your vision and any certain photographs you want to make sure we capture.

The Gallery
“Monica is amazing! She came prepared with many different family poses that I felt comfortable with doing. The transition from pose to pose felt authentic and allowed for our family to show our true selves. She was so patient with my kids which made the entire experience so comfortable and enjoyable. So thankful for how beautiful our family pictures turned out.”
“Taking pictures with Monica was such an amazing experience! I know that, as a guy, I really didn't want to take pictures. I never enjoyed it in the past and always felt awkward but Monica made me feel so comfortable. It was more like hanging out with a friend rather than just taking pictures.”
“Taking photos was not high on my list at all, but it was totally worth it when I got to see how excited and beautiful my wife looked! It was hard not to have fun, especially with how easy Monica makes everything. She makes you feel comfortable to where you almost forget you're taking pictures. I surprisingly really enjoyed our session and would do it again.”
