Storytelling images for families who want to preserve the beautiful, authentic, and love-filled moments shared with the ones they love most.
Primarily serving Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough, NC, as well as surrounding areas.
Hi! I'm Mary!
I am a newborn and family photographer ready to capture the connections between you and your family so you can relive the most special moments.
As a mom myself, I understand how important it is to document and preserve moments; the big and small ones, the ordinary and extraordinary.
From first revealing you're expecting, to the maternity photos just weeks before meeting your little babe, then snuggling at home with your newborn, giggles while playing peek-a-boo, and to the quickly changing big kid personalities, let me help you remember it all.

Here is a look into what we offer...
If you are wanting to capture several milestones, beginning with the days before your sweet baby's arrival and throughout his/her first year, you should become part of...

My photo session bucket list for 2026!
Top of my list… you know it, goats!!! I want to do a couple of family sessions with the goats or among other farm animals!
Other ideas that I really want your help marking it off my list:
- Pool or lake session as the summer approaches
- Saturday morning session (think cozy at home, making breakfast with your kids, snuggles, pillow fights, etc.)
- Baking session embracing the mess and tiny hands covered in flour and cookie dough
- Ice cream outing (kids with cones in each hand, the whole family feeding each other, ice cream dripping down chins, etc.)
- Park play dates with kids swinging, mom and date sliding with their littles, monkey bars, and letting everyone just play, play, play
I’m SO excited for these sessions and I need your help to make them happen.
I’ll have all the details next week, but I want to know which one of these ideas sounds the most fun for your family!

Yesterday my littlest one was sitting in my bed eating a yogurt and he says to me, “I love our home. Can this be our home forever?”
There could always be a little more room, some updated house projects, etc. I think his words prove that the simple things matter.
Giving them a place where they feel freedom and structure. Warm and cozy. They can be their true self through laughter and tears.
Providing for and taking care of a child(ren) is certainly not without its hard moments and days, but it’s such a privilege and a joy to be a mama.

It will always be the greatest honor to be invited back into a family’s home to document their love stories with new tiny hands and feet to hold, while watching their oldest ones take on new roles. ❤️
