THESE ARE

the new heirlooms

Running wild through a golden field documented with an artistic eye.

Littles hands exploring swaying ferns captured like a classic painting.

The new heirlooms are personal, blending high art with real emotion. Your family right now is your own version of perfect, and you deserve to celebrate today as art. Yes, even on those days you have to hide in the bathroom for a moment of peace and every meal you’ve eaten can be best described as “leftover dino nuggets.” Even then, these people are your world. 

That deserves to be celebrated and share space on your walls alongside any beloved piece of art.

CAN YOU FEEL NOSTALGIC FOR

right now?

I think you can. When you pause and soak up a moment as your child explores their world with all their heart, it can hit you like oof right to the chest. 

You’re in the moment, and you already know you’re going to miss it someday. Hiding between the schedules and the emotional work and the long nights … that right there is parenthood. Feeling wistful for today because you know how fast it changes.

Right now is worth remembering. 

And through your images, you can.

FAMILY PHOTOS WITHOUT THE STRESS?

Yes, sign me up!

I get it. I’m a mom and I’ve done the family photo standard. It’s … not fun. So let’s do something different.

I’m here to support you through the entire process, from wardrobe to prepping your kids. But more than that, I also prioritize helping you choose and order your archival prints and albums. Because I wouldn’t be doing my job if I just dumped a bunch of digitals on you. That just adds more to your plate, and I’m all about making your life easier. 

You can trust in me to guide you every step of the way.


Make yourself at home

I love welcoming your family to my home studio. The studio is large and comfy, with a curated client closet, bathroom, snacks and drinks, and cozy spots to hang out (I’ve even had dads catch a nap on the couch during newborn sessions!). The space continues outside with more than two acres of land that I’ve curated to become perfect photo backdrops, like a shady hollow full of ferns or a treeline that burns bright in autumn. We’ll explore together and have a wonderful experience, all while creating heirloom art.

“Kristen is a consummate professional when it comes to photography. She is artistic, creative, exceedingly talented, and beyond fun to work with.  Our photos came out more gorgeous than I ever could've imagined.  Even though our nugget is nearly two, I still look back at them often.”
