The Creative Edit | FEBRUARY 2026

Real. Timeless. Emotive

 

February always feels like a hinge month—one foot in the quiet, cozy days of winter and the other stepping toward spring milestones, celebrations, and graduations. It’s a season of new beginnings and meaningful moments, and I’m grateful for all the ways this work continues to unfold.


Here’s a look at what I’ve been photographing lately and what’s coming into focus next.

A Sweet New Beginning: Newborn Session Highlights


I’m beginning the year with the softest kind of storytelling—a newborn session photographed in early February that beautifully captures those early, fleeting days at home. The images are filled with gentle light, quiet connection, and the kind of moments that never last quite long enough.

Newborn sessions are always a reminder that the most powerful images don’t require elaborate setups—just trust, patience, and space to let real life unfold. If you’re expecting (or know someone who is), documenting these early days is something you’ll never regret.’m s

Senior Season Is Here


Senior season is officially underway, and graduation will be here before it feels real—especially if you’re hoping to have images ready for announcements, invitations, or keepsakes.


My books are open, and I’m currently scheduling senior sessions through spring. If you have a senior in your life and want portraits that feel relaxed, confident, and true to who they are right now, I’d love to work with you.his

Headshots, Lately


I’ve been photographing a steady stream of professional headshots recently, including several sessions for the team at Saurage Rotenberg Commercial Real Estate. These sessions focus on clean, modern images that feel polished yet approachable—perfect for websites, LinkedIn, and marketing materials.


If your professional image could use a refresh, this is one of the simplest ways to make a strong first impression.

Micro Weddings & Elopements

I take on a limited number of micro weddings and elopements each year, and they remain some of my favorite stories to tell.


If you’re planning an intentionally small and meaningful celebration, I offer thoughtfully curated packages that can include everything from venue coordination to florals to photography—designed to keep the experience simple, beautiful, and stress-free.


If this sounds like your kind of celebration, just reply to this email and ask for details. I’d love to talk it through with you.ve been
