frequently asked questions

Also known as "photojournalism" or “reportage,” documentary photography is an artful approach where the photographer immerses themself in the action, making photographs of what is truly unfolding before them. Simply put, it's when a photographer senses, anticipates, and documents moments without directing or changing the scene. In my experience, people look naturally best on their own without being told when and how to look.  

Whatever your daily activities are, I will be there to capture the pulse, and subtleties of your family life as a photojournalist would capture a story for a newspaper. In the end, your photos will be a real representation of your family relationships now.

I understand that feeling. But I promise that in 5, 10, or 20 years (and beyond), all you’ll care about is that you have photos of you and your child, interacting with each other in the ways that you do; you’ll never want to forget the way he looks at you when you’re telling him his favorite story. (And besides, I’m a pro at getting you at all your best angles; no worries!)

I believe that the best moments happen in the place where you’re most comfortable: your home. And part of what makes your family your family is the house you call home. Your kids won’t care. And chances are, you won’t, either. What matters are the people who inhabit those four walls: you and yours. 

Trust me when I tell you that there’s magic in the squabble; there are moments of connectedness—that’s why they disagree. And if not, it’s the perfect comic relief in photographs.
