Mimi is a magician of light and angle and style. She captured one of the most important pieces of my life and identity — it means so much to me and I feel so lucky to have found her talented lens.”
- Madeleine“Mimi is unbelievable. Even my husband at the end of our shoot thought it went by fast and couldn't believe how easy it was. She is a rare breed of personality that immediately puts you at ease. She's friendly and warm. Her art is beautiful. The photos she took did such a good job of capturing the joy Theo brings to our life every day.”

STATEMENT
I am drawn to the quiet, in-between moments that so often go unnoticed — the way a hand reaches instinctively for another, the softness in a new parent’s gaze, the familiar rhythm between two people who have built a life together. My work is rooted in documenting connection as it naturally unfolds, with honesty, warmth, and reverence for the season you’re in. Whether it’s welcoming your first baby or walking through the city simply being yourselves, my intention is to preserve not just how it looked, but how it felt to be there.
I believe the most meaningful photographs happen when people feel safe enough to be fully themselves. That’s why I approach each session gently and intuitively, creating space for you to relax into the moment. I’m not interested in stiff poses or forced smiles — I’m watching for the real laughter, the subtle glances, the emotion that rises when you forget there’s a camera in the room. Those are the pieces that tell the truest story.
To me, every session is a collaboration built on trust. I come alongside you — calm, present, and attentive. I guide when needed, but I also step back and let life unfold. The magic lives in that balance. It’s in the effortless exchanges, the energy between you, the small details that make your love and your family uniquely yours.
I think of my photographs as heirlooms of feeling. Each image is a fragment of a larger narrative — the beginning of a family, the deepening of a bond, the simple beauty of an ordinary day that will one day feel extraordinary. I want you to see yourselves in your images and recognize the truth of who you are in this chapter.
It is never lost on me what a privilege this is. To be invited into your home, to witness your tenderness, to document your joy — it’s sacred work. My hope is that decades from now, when you hold these photographs in your hands, you won’t just remember what you looked like. You’ll remember the warmth, the laughter, the overwhelming love — and you’ll feel it all over again.
