Life moves faster than we ever expect. The little boy you glance down at today will soon be the young man you’re looking up at tomorrow. The daughter you tuck into bed tonight with silly bedtime stories and endless giggles may decide she’s “too old” for bedtime rituals next week. That precious newborn you just brought home will be packing for college in what feels like the blink of an eye. So much can change in so little time.

As your Southern California family photographer, my role is to document this moment exactly as you are, as a family. These fleeting days deserve to be remembered—not just in your heart but in beautiful portraits that freeze the love, connection, and magic of your unique story.

We’ll work together to create a personalized experience that’s easy and enjoyable. I’ll take the time to get to know your family—your bond, your personalities, and the love you share—so your photos will feel as authentic as the moments they capture.

I'm so thankful I came across Becky for our family photos this summer.  I was really concerned about my ability to put together a cohesive look for the six of us. Her style guide got me started and her personal input to my selections along the way really set the foundation for some great looking photos. I couldn't be more pleased with how our photos turned out. She is very talented in capturing the joy, laughter and love our family shares. Will absolutely recommend her to friends and will hire her again.

Becky was so helpful before, during and after our shoot.
