Meet teresa
I’m a mom too, which means I understand the beautiful chaos of this season of life. The energy, the closeness, the moments that don’t always go as planned—but end up meaning the most.
That understanding guides the way I photograph families: calmly, thoughtfully, and with space for real connection to unfold.
The ExperienceAfter booking a session with me, you can expect a personalized experience and a simple process.
01.
Thoughtful Planning
You will complete a questionnaire. I’ll take time to learn about your family, your children, and what matters most to you in this season. This helps each session feel personal and unhurried from the start.
02.
Complete Styling support
No need to worry about what to wear. I have got you covered! You’ll receive guidance on outfit choices, color palettes, and coordination. My goal is to make planning St Augustine portraits feel simple, not overwhelming.
03.
ENJOY A RELAXED, GUIDED SESSION
I’ll offer gentle direction and simple prompts to help you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. The focus is on creating natural expressions and capturing personality in an easy, unhurried way.
04.
Beautifully Edited Images
Each image is thoughtfully & artistically edited with attention to skin tones, color, and details like stray hairs and blemishes. You’ll receive images that reflect your family naturally and honestly.

What to Expect During Your Session
Working with me feels calm, simple, and intentionally unhurried.
Your child doesn’t need to know how to pose.
They don’t need to perform.
They don’t need to be anything other than themselves.
I follow your child’s lead, allow space for pauses, and offer gentle guidance when it’s helpful—so real expression, movement, and connection can unfold naturally.
Most parents are surprised by how relaxed the experience feels.
You’ll receive a handful of classic, frame-worthy portraits, along with a full gallery shaped around the in-between moments—the soft smiles, curious glances, playful energy, and quiet details that tend to matter more as time passes.
Honest. Natural. Never forced.
Just real life, thoughtfully documented.

The wardrobe is an essential part of having polished-looking portraits and I am here to help you with that. I provide wardrobe assistance for each session. This includes a wardrobe guide with the do’s and dont’s to styling your session. I also provide my clients with exclusive access to Style & Select, which is an online database run by photographers. You can shop for and coordinate your entire family’s wardrobe with ease through this site. I also have a client closet with dresses available on loan to moms. I am always available as a sounding board to provide input to help you finalize your choices.

I have children and I get this, but do not stress. My sessions are active and I use lots of prompts. I have lots of tricks up my sleeve to engage children. Just focus on staying in the moment and embracing the beauty of this stage in parenting. I promise you will love the images.
-
All packages listed are for immediate family members only. If you wish to include extended family members, please contact me for the pricing. Your session will require extra session time and editing time, which is why there is an additional fee.
-
As these are not fully processed or artistically enhanced images, I do not release Raw and unedited images. The final gallery contains the best images from your collection.
-
I hand edit each and very image form your gallery. I begin with color correction and then enhancement of light, sky and other details. I then edit every individual photo in Photoshop where I make further artistic enhancements and I also smooth skin, brighten eyes and remove stray hairs.
-
You are not obligated to print through me, but I highly recommend using a reputable printer. I set the printing cost low to encourage clients to print through the professional lab. I can’t guarantee the quality of prints printed through an outside lab, as I am not calibrated nor affiliated with those labs. I also offer custom albums and print packages. Just message me for more info.
-
If it rains on the day of your St Augustine portrait session, we will reschedule. I leave room in my calendar for the possibility of rain. If it rains, we will reschedule to the next available date. I do not reschedule due to cloudy weather. In fact, cloudy days provide perfect lighting for sessions.
-
You will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within 2 weeks after your session time. You can download your photos from the gallery. The gallery allows you to share with family and also provides you with access to professional printing services.
-
Mini sessions are offered during the Fall for the holidays and typically involve sets, props and most of my locations require permits and time limitations, thus limiting my flexibility.
These sessions are 15-20 minutes in length and are appointment-based. Multiple families are photographed each day. I make every effort to capture your child in the allotted time, but, for mini sessions, I am forced to work within the constraints of your appointment time.
Although I don’t offer mini sessions throughout the remainder of the year, I often run promotions for regular sessions that are posted through my newsletter . Those spots tend to book up quickly. Message me if you would like to be added to either of those groups.
-
Your gallery will remain active for 60 days and I archive images for 90 days as a courtesy. Please download and backup your images.
