Auburn Family & Milestone Photography
Auburn has a grounded, natural energy that I’ve always appreciated. Living just up the road in Bonney Lake, I’ve spent years exploring the pockets of the White River Valley to find the right backdrops for my clients. My path to becoming a photographer in Auburn WA, began in 2019 while I was still working in the medical field. Balancing those two worlds for years taught me how quickly life moves and how important it is to document the chapters that matter most before they shift.
The Real Version of Your Family
When you are searching for a photographer in Auburn WA, you want someone who values the real version of your family over a forced, polished one. As a mother of three, I know that kids are unpredictable, and I don’t need them to be “perfect” for the camera. I meet them exactly where they are. Whether we are exploring a quiet wooded area or a soft open field, I focus on the connection and play that happens naturally. To keep things stress-free, every session includes an exclusive location and prep guide so we can focus on the fun.
Your Baby’s First Year of Rapid Growth
If you have been looking for milestone photography near you, I offer specialized sessions designed to capture your baby’s first year of rapid growth. From the tiny details of a newborn session to the high energy of a first-birthday celebration, I move at your child’s pace. I am drawn to what often goes unnoticed: the way a baby settles into your arms or the natural curiosity of a toddler. My goal is to create images that feel familiar and real, reflecting the heart of your family as it is right now.
Documenting Every Chapter
I offer several ways to preserve the different stages of your life as they unfold:
Celebrating the strength and beauty of your pregnancy journey.
Gentle, thorough photography typically captured within the first 5 to 15 days of your baby’s life.
A playful, high-energy way to celebrate that big first milestone.
A curated package designed to capture the rapid shifts from the newborn stage through the first year.
I am beyond grateful that I get to document these stories for a living. If you value authentic storytelling over perfection, I’d love to connect.
Common Questions About Auburn Sessions
How do we choose a spot for our session in Auburn?
Once you are on the calendar, I provide an exclusive location and prep guide. This includes various spots I’ve found that offer beautiful light and a quiet atmosphere, allowing your family to feel relaxed and focused on each other.
What happens if my kids don't want to sit still?
They don’t have to! I actually prefer that they don’t. Some of the most genuine photos happen when kids are allowed to move and play. I move at their pace and focus on capturing their true personalities rather than a forced smile.
When should I book a milestone session?
For newborn sessions, I recommend reaching out during your second or third trimester to ensure a spot on my calendar within that 5 to 15-day window. For first birthdays and cake smashes, booking a few months in advance is best to ensure we have time to plan the details.
