About me

Ciao!

My first name is Italian: it’s pronounced ah-LEE-chay (like ceviché). It’s easier to pronounce if you throw your hands in the air like a true Italian!

My art is deeply influenced by my life as a mom of three kids. I understand firsthand how parenthood is made up of many things: challenges, beauty, stress, excitement, exhaustion, tears (of joy, sorrow, and nostalgia)… all at once. I also know how fleeting it feels to watch my own kids grow, and the ache I feel wanting to hold on to these days and years together.

That’s why I love what I do. I get to help you stop time, at least for this brief moment, so that you can always remember this chapter of your family’s story.

Are you ready to document all of it?

What it’s like to work with me

My Approach

Preparation is Key!

To keep sessions stress-free and simple, I will:

Once your session is booked, I will send you a preparation guide to take the stress out of planning! The guide covers everything from what to wear, how to prepare your home, what to bring to an outdoor session, and other tips and tricks.
If you’re someone who feels super awkward in front of the camera, I’ve got you covered! I use lots of direction and prompts to make sure you look effortless and amazing!
Full-length sessions give us the time and space to capture small, special moments, letting kids reveal their true personalities on their own timelines, and giving adults time to warm up to my camera as well.
“I love to laugh, ha ha ha ha!” (cue the Mary Poppins song). But really, humor is my best go-to tool for both kids and adults alike, to get real smiles and genuine joy into your images.

Yessss, I'm so ready!

About my sessions

Stress-free and easy!

Yearly photos are a non-negotiable for my own family, and I understand first hand how much time, preparation, and mental energy goes into getting my family ready for each session.

That’s why I design my sessions to be as easy for you as possible, so that you can be excited - not stressed - about your time with me. I want you to just focus on having fun with your family, while I take care of the rest, from the session itself, all the way to your final printed artwork.

Let's do this!
