Documenting Families from Maternity to Newborn and Beyond
Serving Delafield, Oconomowoc, and families throughout Lake Country, Brookfield, Elm Grove, and Wauwatosa
A relaxed, guided approach for families with young children
I’m a Delafield family photographer serving families in Delafield, Oconomowoc, Lake Country and surrounding areas. My work centers around family photography, while also documenting maternity and newborn seasons for growing families who want to capture every stage.
Delafield holds a special place in my heart, as it’s where I grew up, and I’m deeply connected to the families and community here. I love its quiet beauty, open spaces, and strong sense of community. Many of the families I photograph live right here in Delafield and throughout Lake Country, where preserving these fleeting seasons of childhood feels especially meaningful. My approach is calm and intuitive, allowing your family the space to be together while I document the moments you’ll want to remember forever.
I specialize in working with families with young kids, creating sessions that feel relaxed, natural, and genuinely enjoyable. I gently guide you throughout the session while leaving space for candid moments to unfold, bringing an energy that helps everyone feel comfortable and fully themselves. The result is beautiful images that reflect you & your family. Many of the families I work with return for maternity, newborn, and family sessions over time as their story continues to grow.
Why Delafield Is Such a Beautiful Place for Family Photos
Delafield offers some of the most beautiful locations for family photography in Lake Country. I often photograph families along the Ice Age Trail, at Nashotah Park, and near the Bark River, where quiet trails, open fields, and soft natural surroundings create space for families to slow down and simply be together. These locations are especially beautiful in every season and allow children to explore freely while I document the genuine connection that unfolds. Having grown up here, these places feel deeply familiar to me, and I love guiding families to locations that reflect the natural beauty and peaceful rhythm that make Delafield so special. I’m also always happy to suggest additional locations throughout Delafield and Lake Country based on the season, light, and what feels most meaningful for your family.
I'm a Delafield family photographer specializing in families with young kids and capturing every season in between. I understand that little ones don’t need perfection, they need space to be themselves. My approach is gentle and intuitive, offering guidance when needed while leaving room for the candid, in-between moments that often become the most meaningful.
I bring an energetic yet steady energy to each session that helps families feel at ease, allowing genuine connection to naturally unfold. I’m deeply drawn to light, color, and emotion, and I use these elements to create images that feel personal and unique to your family.
I photograph family, maternity, and newborn sessions throughout Delafield and nearby Lake Country communities like Oconomowoc, Brookfield, and Elm Grove, capturing these sessions both outdoors and in-home.
