Your Good Day,

Captured

For teens, tweens and families who want photos that reflect their personality in a photo session that is as is unique as them — it’s your GOOD DAY (pun intended).

Here, our feel-good photo sessions are inspired by you and all about you. We’ll capture the real stuff - genuine laughter, authentic connections, the quirks and all. And from our first hello to the moment your photos are delivered every detail is intentionally with you in mind and a heart filled with gratitude. Let’s tell your story. It’s the best one to tell.

A little about the Good Day way

From the moment your photo session is booked you have an insta-photo-pal in your corner. Someone that is committed to giving you just the right amount of hype, guidance and support every step-of-the-session way. Someone that genuinely wants to know all about you (like, right after you book a session!), and then uses those insights and personality-trait tidbits as creative fuel to plan a photo session centered around you.

I do all of this because I believe a photo session should be more than a transaction. And I believe that a photo should tell your story by letting your personality shine.

At the end of our Good Day, I want you to feel celebrated, seen and like you matter—because you do. And I’m just honored to help you document your ‘remember when’ moments for you to cherish now and share with future generations.

The heart of Good Day Photography

From Teens, Tweens to big Little kids, there is so much change and self discovery that happens during these growing-up years. So whether it’s a milestone age, a celebratory moment or just because, I meet you where you are - style, vibe and all - to celebrate who you are right now.

Your days deserve to be remembered— let’s make them last.

As you grow so does your story and every chapter matters. Moments that seem small and insignificant will be meaningful in time. Those personality quirks that are embedded in your memory now can fade over time. And those ages that you may not want to remember, trust me— someday you will. Sure, you’ll have yearbook headshots and camera roll selfies likely by the thousand, but those types of photos only go so far. Future you and future generations will surely want and deserve quality, personality-filled photos to go along with all those side-bending, smile-so-wide ‘remember when’ stories.
