ALL ABOUT becky

We believe in creating images that remind you of the best moments in life. 

Our Vision

I love to document the early moments of motherhood, like your time growing your baby inside your bump, the first weeks that your little one is on the outside, and beyond. Children are a gift and I want to help you create heirlooms to remember just how precious and beautiful your journey with them has been over the years.

With 15 years of experience in photography and as the mom of two energetic little boys, I am prepared to document your family. I love all of the silly and fun that children bring to portraits.

About becky

Over the past couple years, I've wrestled with how I can best serve the families that I photograph. It has never felt right allowing digital files to be the end game. Don't get me wrong, digital files are important and I am still providing them with every collection.

Still, I kept thinking about how eventually today's technology will be obsolete. Unless we are constantly backing up our photographs, they could very well be gone forever if we are not preserving them otherwise. Also, what about how all of that impacts how our children will look back on their childhoods? Do we really want to be passing down passwords to cloud storage or a hard drive that very well may fail? 

Of course not, we want to pass down the same thing that previous generations had - family heirlooms. We want to hand them their baby album and allow them to grow up seeing their faces in the frames on the wall.  We want something heirloom quality that will stand the test of time. 

That's why I have transformed my business into something that I can see more of my heart in. I will come alongside you in preserving your memories in a way that you can feel good about, knowing that you're investing in something that truly matters.

While our thumbs might not quite be 100% green, we do enjoy growing cut flowers in the summertime and trying our best to keep our rose bushes alive.

We love to visit the local trails to hike and marvel at God's beautiful creation. We love to pick wildflowers, find salamanders, and collect rocks or minerals.

YEARS

Through the

For me, photographs are all I have left of my mother.

She passed away when I was just 14, after a 13-year battle with brain cancer. That was 20 years ago, as of March 2025.

As a 19-year-old girl from rural Oklahoma, she fell in love with my dad while he was stationed nearby in the military. Their love took them across the world—to Greece, where my oldest brother was born—before they settled on the East Coast. I was their youngest, born a decade after my siblings.

Before I even turned one, she was given only a year to live. And while I do remember the hospital visits and the seizures, what stands out most are the simple, beautiful moments—gardening together, baking in the kitchen, marveling at flowers in bloom. I remember the way her love wrapped around me. I remember the way she loved others. What a gift.

But what I don’t have? Are many photographs of her as the woman I knew.

She shied away from the camera, worried about how she looked as she fought through treatments.

And now, as a mother myself, I understand all too well how easy it is to hide behind the camera, to focus on capturing everyone else. But here’s the truth: we do our families a disservice when we erase ourselves from the story.

Motherhood is a story worth documenting—the quiet moments, the belly laughs, the way your hands cradle your baby bump, and the wonder of those first few weeks earthside. It’s a fleeting, beautiful journey, and I want to help you preserve it. Because these moments? They are treasures, and they deserve to be remembered.

With 15 years of experience as a photographer—and as a mom to two wild and wonderful little boys—I know firsthand how quickly time moves. I know the silly, the sweet, the chaos, and the love that fills your days. And I know how important it is to freeze those moments before they slip away.

Photographs are more than just images; they are the tangible proof of the love we give and receive. They become heirlooms, a way for our children to look back and feel just how deeply they were loved.



One day, these photographs will be more than just pictures—they will be proof. Proof of your love, your presence, your warmth. Proof that you were here, loving them through every single season.

And that? That is a gift worth giving.
