Artfully preserving the sunshine of your newborn love - forever.

🚨 Tomorrow at 6:00 AM it begins.

For one day only, my Santa Experience opens exclusively to families on Santa’s Nice List… and every year these sessions disappear incredibly fast.

Every season I receive dozens of messages asking:

“Can you fit my child in?”

“Do you have one extra spot?”

Unfortunately, once they’re gone, they’re gone.

✨ This year only…

Families who reserve their Santa Experience during the first 18 hours will receive an exclusive Personalized Video Message from Santa.

Santa records a custom message just for your child using their name and special details you share with me. It’s a magical invitation they’ll watch over and over again.

🎅 If you’re not on Santa’s Nice List, you won’t receive tomorrow’s booking link.

👇 Comment SANTA below, and I’ll send you your private invitation before reservations open at 6:00 AM.

Pittsburgh families… tomorrow is the day. ❤️

Pittsburgh families… tomorrow is the day. ❤️

Your child deserves more than a quick photo with Santa.

Imagine them laughing while they dance together… giggling through a snowball fight… snuggling up for a Christmas story… or sitting on the floor playing trains while Santa asks them all about their year.

Those genuine moments are what make this experience so unforgettable.

✨ Reservations open in 2 DAYS.

They are NOT released publicly.

Only families on my Santa List will receive the booking link when reservations open.

Every year these sessions disappear quickly, and once they’re full, that’s it until next Christmas.

🎅 Only 3 days left.

In just three days, I’ll send the private booking invitation for one of my favorite events of the entire year.

But here’s the catch…

✨ I don’t release this event to the public.

The booking link is only sent to families on Santa’s Nice List.

If you’ve been dreaming of giving your child a magical, one-on-one experience with Santa—where he remembers their name, talks about their accomplishments, reads their favorite book, and creates memories your family will treasure—this is your chance.

Every year, sessions disappear incredibly fast, and I always hear from parents who wish they had joined the list sooner.

🎄 Don’t let that be you.

🍂 This isn’t a mini session. This is your family’s memories, frozen in time.

One day, these little hands won’t reach for yours.

They won’t laugh as hard when you throw leaves in the air.

They won’t ask you to carry them.

They won’t fit perfectly on your hip anymore.

That’s why these sessions matter.

No forced smiles.
No awkward posing.

Just genuine laughter.
Warm hugs.
Running through the leaves.
The little moments you’ll wish you could relive years from now.

These are the portraits your children will grow up looking back on.

✨ Every fall, my family sessions sell out incredibly fast.

And here’s the important part…

I never release these sessions to the public.

The only families who receive the booking link are the ones on my email list.

🍁 Want first access?

Comment FALL below and I’ll send you a private invitation to join my Fall VIP List.

When booking day arrives, you’ll receive the booking link before anyone else.

Because once these dates are gone…

They’re gone until next year. 🤍

Every year, my inbox fills with messages that sound exactly the same…

“Did I miss it?”

“Please tell me there’s just one spot left.”

“I had no idea booking had already opened.”

And every year, it breaks my heart because once these sessions are full… they’re truly full.

One day...

there will be a last Christmas your child truly believes in Santa.

You won’t know it’s the last one.

That thought lives rent-free in my head.

Maybe it’s because I’m pregnant with my second baby.

Maybe it’s because I’ve photographed hundreds of Pittsburgh families over the years.

Either way...

it’s why preserving these little years means so much to me.

✨Your kid won’t remember the poses. They’ll remember the dance party. The genuine laughs. The moment they felt like Christmas magic was REAL.

That’s what happens during a Santa session with us — it’s not about getting the perfect photo. It’s about LIVING the moment while we capture it.

Your child picks the experience:

🎅 Dance party to the Reindeer Shuffle (choreography included, laughter guaranteed)
🎅 Read The Night Before Christmas together
🎅 Epic snowball fight with fake snow
🎅 Play with Santa’s wooden trains
🎅 Hear the REAL story of how Christmas works

Here’s what I’ve learned: Parents book thinking they want posed photos. But the photo they actually FRAME? It’s the one where their kid is genuinely happy, genuinely playing, genuinely being a kid.

That’s the photo that ends up on your hallway wall. That’s the one you show people for years.

Ready to create that memory? Comment the word ‘SANTA’ to Hop on Santa’s Nice List. Reservations open in 17 days. 🎄

✨ I’m a little picky…

And I think that’s exactly why families come back year after year.

I don’t believe Christmas magic should feel rushed.

I don’t believe your child should wait in long lines just to spend 30 seconds with a Santa they barely get to talk to.

I don’t believe holiday photos should start with stressed-out parents, overwhelmed kids, and outfits that never quite come together.

I believe your family deserves more than that.

❤️ I believe your child deserves to feel like they are the most important person in Santa’s world.

That’s why I’ve spent the last four years creating an experience that feels completely different.

✨ A custom-designed set.
✨ A wardrobe styling program that takes the guesswork out of what everyone should wear.
✨ Ten magical, unhurried minutes with Santa.
✨ A warm drink (or a mimosa 😉) while your children step into a story they’ll never forget.

Every single detail has been designed with one goal…

To create a memory your family will treasure forever.

Because these aren’t just Christmas photos.

They’re proof that, for one magical morning…

Santa was real. ❤️🎅

🎅🏻This isn’t a Santa photo op. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Santa remembers your child. He knows their accomplishments. He has REAL conversations with them. He dances with them. He reads their favorite book. He gets on the floor and plays.

This is memory-making. The kind of magic kids remember into adulthood.

In 20 days, booking doors open — and spots book out FAST.

Want in? Type ‘SANTA’ below + I’ll send you the link to join Santa’s Nice List. You’ll get exclusive details + the booking link the moment doors open.✨

🎄Can we talk about the hardest part of Santa photos?

Honestly… it’s usually not getting your kids to smile.

It’s figuring out WHAT they’re going to wear.

You spend hours scrolling.
You order clothes.
They don’t fit.
Your kids hate them.
You second-guess every single outfit.

By the time photo day gets here, you’re already stressed.

I hated watching families go through that every single year, so I decided to fix it.

When you book my Santa Experience, you’ll get access to a styling program that does all the work for you.

You simply enter whether you have a boy or a girl, their sizes, and it gives you a beautifully curated collection of outfits that perfectly match my Santa set.

Every piece is hand-picked.
Every piece is shoppable.
Everything coordinates beautifully.

Or… if you already have clothes at home, you can use the outfit ideas as inspiration instead.

No more guessing.
No more endless scrolling.
No more wondering if your photos will look cohesive.

And here’s the thing…

Your kids don’t have to wear fancy clothes to create magical portraits.

If they feel happiest in cozy Christmas pajamas…
Perfect.

If you love dressing them up…
Perfect.

The goal isn’t perfect outfits.

The goal is creating magical memories your family will treasure forever. ❤️

✨Last year James didn’t ask Santa for another toy…he asked for more time with Daddy. 🥹

Your children will remember the feeling that Santa gave them - the magic that Santa brought them for that year. They’ll remember it forever. Not the toy.

One day your baby will run through your hallway.

Not as a baby.

Not as a toddler.

But as a teenager.

And they’ll pass those framed portraits hanging on the wall.

The photographs from when they were little.

The photographs where mom and dad looked at them like they were the most important person in the world.

Because they were.

Family portraits are not for today.

They’re for twenty years from now.

They’re for the child who grows up surrounded by evidence that they were loved.

That matters more than most parents realize.

Comment FAMILY if preserving your family’s story matters to you.

When families come into my studio for a newborn session…

I’m not just photographing your new baby.

I’m photographing a family that has just changed forever.

Yes, we’ll create beautiful portraits of your newborn.

But we’re also going to celebrate the little boy who just became a big brother.

The little girl who is trying so hard to figure out what her new role looks like.

Because this day belongs to them too.

Their entire world has changed overnight.

One day, I want them to look back at these photographs and know this:

“I mattered too.”

“I wasn’t forgotten.”

“I was part of this story from the very beginning.”

That’s why sibling portraits are never an afterthought in my studio.

They’re one of the most important parts of the entire session.

DM me FAMILY if you’re expecting baby number two (or three!).

Everyone remembers to schedule newborn photos.

Almost nobody realizes how quickly everything changes after that.

One day they’re learning to sit.

Then they’re clapping.

Then they’re crawling.

Then they’re standing.

Then they’re taking their first wobbly steps.

Your baby’s first year isn’t one milestone.

It’s dozens of tiny moments that quietly disappear before you even realize they’re gone.

That’s exactly why I love photographing babies throughout their first year.

Because every chapter deserves to be remembered—not just the beginning.

DM me GROW if you’re planning to document your baby’s first year.

Your newborn session should never feel rushed.

Ever.

Babies need breaks.
Feeding.
Comfort.
Patience.

That is why I intentionally leave space in my schedule for my newborn families.

If baby needs cuddled, we cuddle.
If baby needs fed, we pause.
If baby needs extra time, we take extra time.

Nothing matters more to me than your baby feeling safe and cared for.

Beautiful portraits happen naturally when everybody feels calm.

That is why my sessions feel different.
