If you want a photographer who captures real, emotional moments between you and your little ones, I'm your girl!
Of course, we have to get those few posed images for grandma and grandpa. I always aimed to get a mix of both. After-all, they wouldn't be memories without it, right?

Real Families. Cherished Memories.
Featured Family Galleries
When this sweet little family came to me with the idea of this fun family session to bake cookies, I was absolutely thrilled! I absolutely love creative and fun family sessions that involve more candid moments than posed.
How sweet are these photos going to be to look back on?!

Watching the magic unfold when you have a second child is truly something out of this world. Just when you thought that your heart could not love more than one tiny human, you find out that there is certainly room for two.
This sweet family had the sweetest babies.

The dangs
The Pruitt's came to visit from out of state and found me on social media and I could not wait to do family photos for them! Often, when coming from out of state, most people want the gorgeous views of Colorado. Colorado Springs family photos at Garden of the God's offers a bit of everything that you can find here in the state.

The Family Experience
When most think of family photos, we think of standing there and posing - staring right at the camera and saying "cheese." While I do get a few of those, I aim to capture the emotional connection between you and your children. Candid moments that make memories come flooding back when you look at them in 5, 10, 15 years.
The best way to get your children to have a genuine smile is to let them do things that they enjoy. I swear I don't mind chasing your sweet babies around to capture them in their true selves.

I would love to help you plan outfits! My go to suggestions is neutrals with a bold color or two thrown in. However, my advice is always going to depend on what exactly you are wanting your session to look like.
I also have a style guide I can send over that explains what patterns and textures photograph the best and how to put everything together for your little family.

Nursing my daughter was one of the most special times in my life and is why my motherhood session has been my favorite to date. It means the absolute world to me that I have such tender pictures to cherish for the rest of my life.
Melissa was so patient and kind with Olivia and myself. I also felt incredibly comfortable nursing in front of her. She's exceptionally talented and captured our session perfectly!
Motherhood session
Melissa took both our maternity and newborn photos. We absolutely love the photos, she did an incredible job. She was so patient and loving with our baby and even took extra time to edit out her oxygen stickers. I highly recommend Melissa!
