The challenging times we are living through are teaching us to prioritize our relationships with family and friends. Even during hard times, the fleeting moments in our lives deserve to be documented beautifully.
Together, we’ll capture authentic connections, thoughtful portraits, joyful togetherness, and silly antics, creating a collection of images that harmonize to tell your family’s story.

Let’s chat and see how we can help.
Custom Session
Our custom sessions are great for capturing your family on an annual basis, or for welcoming new family members. The session is customized to your needs, favorite places, and style. Spring and Fall are our busiest times, so be sure to book early for the best dates.
Baby Plan
Your baby’s first year is one of intense love, growth, and milestones — for everyone! Our Baby Plan includes three sessions to capture your little one throughout: newborn, six months, and one-year. Expecting? Let’s connect soon to start planning.
Extended Family Session
If 2020 taught us anything, it’s the value and importance of our family connections. The next time your family is gathering, celebrate with photos to capture the joy of togetherness. Planning early is key, so reach out for info soon!

Hi! I’m Irja (hear my name). I go by the pronouns she/her. That’s my little guy and I in the photo. I blinked and now he’s twelve(!!). How does that happen?
I’ve photographed families and special events professionally since 2009. In my spare time, I enjoy beach time and bowling with my kiddo, coffee with my parents, and 3-hr phone calls with my bff
