IN LOVE
WITH capturing motherhood & babyhood.
well hello there...
I'm Saren. Wife to my handsome hubs Randy & mom to two gingers: Redding "Red" & Gracey.
I started my business in 2014 after having both our children and needing a creative outlet. Besides photography, I love interior design, floral design, cooking healthy for my family and recently became obsessed with tennis. My passion within photography is focused on MOMS. I work hard to pose and edit in a way that moms look their most beautiful no matter how pregnant or post-partum they are feeling! Photography has given SO much to me personally and I hope to give back to YOU the cherished images you're after.

That sleepy yawn? Absolute perfection.
At just a couple months old, babies have this perfect mix of softness and spark - eyes wide, expressions changing by the second, and just enough sleepy magic to melt your heart. It’s such a joy to photograph these early days while the world still feels brand new.

Evenings like this are what memories are made of - golden light, wide open fields, and the people that matter most.
This session was filled with easy laughter, tiny milestones, and the kind of joy that shows up when you`re just walking hand in hand, soaking it all in.
If you’ve been thinking about a milestone session outdoors, this is your sign.

Who runs the world? GIRLS!!
Strong, sweet, and totally in sync - this sisterhood is something special.
You can see it in the way they look at each other, laugh together, and lean in close without even thinking.
And behind that connection?
Two incredible parents who are raising confident, kind little humans and cheering them on every step of the way.
I loved every second with this adorable family.

I feel so lucky to do what I do - to meet the kindest families, create beauty together, and turn simple moments into lasting memories.
Sessions like this one fill my heart every single time. The movement, the laughter, the glow of it all… and then to hear kind words like this after? It means the world.
Thank you, Tanya, for trusting me. Truly.

Golden light. Ocean breeze. Pure joy.
There’s truly something about the beach. The way the light lingers a little longer. The way everyone breathes a little easier. The ocean has a way of bringing out the best in families - playfulness, connection, joy.
This session had all of that and more: sandy toes, squeals of laughter, and that kind of love you can feel from a mile away.

There’s an incredible kind of radiance in these milestone sessions.
That sweet baby glow. Those bright, curious eyes. The way a single expression can melt you.
The feeling is unforgettable.
These are the kinds of portraits you’ll come back to again and again, because they hold a whole little world in them.

They ran. They laughed. They circled their parents like little suns in orbit - each with their own spark, their own rhythm, their own burst of joy.
This was one of those sessions that felt like a celebration of exactly who they are right now. Full of life. Unfiltered. Totally unforgettable.

She might be the tiniest one in the room, but she already has the full attention of her big brother.
Watching him hold her, peek at her tiny fingers, and flash that proud sibling smile - pure gold. This family was such a joy to photograph, and their connection? Already undeniable.

There was something so effortlessly engaging about the way this family moved together - lighthearted, close, and full of little moments that said everything without a word.
From hand squeezes to inside jokes, the love between them showed up in every frame.
