Real Families. Cherished moments.
Sunset is my FAVORITE time to schedule sessions. Nothing beats that amazing golden light filtering through the trees while we capture your family memories.
How adorable is this family?!

Those summer greens and sunlit yellows made the perfect backdrop for this amazing family.
The perfect color coordinated outfits, playful laughs and beautiful portraits combine all of the perfect memories into one family session.
And we can't forget to snap a few of mom and dad! They created this beautiful life, after all.

I had a blast with the Lazic family!
These adorable twin boys were filled with so much energy and sillies! Capturing their giddy laughs and family snuggles warmed my heart.
They are going to be such great big brothers to their new sibling!

As a parent, I know all too well how quickly our children grow up and how precious those little moments can be. That's why I'm passionate about capturing your family's story in a way that's both heartfelt and fun. While we'll start with some posed shots to get things going, my goal is to help you feel relaxed and comfortable so we can capture those authentic, candid moments that make your family so special.
As the session progresses, I'll encourage you to let loose and have fun with each other, whether that means playing tag or simply enjoying the company of your loved ones. By the end of our time together, I hope we'll have created some unforgettable memories that will bring a smile to your face for years to come. So, let's capture your family's story together, one moment at a time.

No prior experience needed in front of the camera. Just bring those beautiful smiles and your love for your family. I'll take care of the rest.

"Sheena was so easy going and made our first family pictures so quick and fun! These are pictures we will cherish forever as our family grows <3 would definitely recommend."

"Sheena is awesome to work with! Not only do our pictures always come out awesome, her personality and professionalism make for enjoyable shoots every time. We have had to reschedule for all kinds of reasons (Covid, weather..etc) and Sheena has always worked with us. She gets our galleries back to us so quick and I’m always pleased with the results. She’s patient and understanding with my toddlers even when they’re being terrors and manages to still get pictures of them smiling when they’re not having a good time."

"Just did my 2 year olds golden birthday pictures, and omg! I love Sheena, I needed someone patient because my little one likes to run around and do his own thing, not only was she patient, but my son loved her! I have worked with her 3 times now and Everytime it feels like the smoothest experience ever because Sheena makes sure we have everything we need, she always responds quickly to any questions I have, and she helps make our picture dreams a reality! 10/10 recommend Sheena for family and baby/kid pictures!"
