She is a delightful cheery lady who can take charge and give great direction when needed. I didn't need to worry about poses she took care of it all.

We recently got our newborn's photoshoot done by Rebecca and were over-whelmed with how professional and great she was with the little baby.

I just had Rebecca Mabey take our family pictures and newborn photos. Not only is she an amazing photographer but she is genuine and personable. 

At the order appointment, we’ll review a professionally curated gallery where you'll select favorites and view virtual previews of images in your home, enabling you to make confident wall art investment decisions. We’ll also look over the texture, color, and design elements for heirloom one of kind albums where their beautiful story can unfold.

If a magical wall portrait spoke a thousand words, it would offer a reminder to embrace the magic of our lives.  To see things through a child's eyes.  It would make that little one feel special as a spotlighted "magical" creature in their element of fun.

  • Because seeing is believing
  • All wish to be seen and heard
  • We all needed reminded of what to hold dear

We'll plan out your vision! I will guide the look from our client closet full of costumes and magic. We'll cover questions, and ensure details. We’ll also preview wall art, albums, and gift products. The session fee of your chosen collection will be due, which does not include any digitals.  One of 3 collections (see below) will be chosen. 
Sessions take place in the comfort of our home studio and backyard inflatable pool. The perfect setting to capture those sweet and magical moments with of your little one. The whole experience is one they will never forget.  Whether they get sprayed with a splash, open a magical mermaid shell, and discover the treasure. Let imaginations soar.

what to expect

The Experience

We'll splash, we'll play, and dress up to imagine life under the sea.  Will we find sparkly pearls from a ship wreck treasure?  Will we sing our favorite songs with the fish?  The mermaids will get wet in an inflatable pool setup as well as in our under the sea set. With the chosen collection, we will work on create those perfect wall art pieces and storybooks that the children will long treasure and feel so special to be spotlighted in.

Fine Art Storytelling

Treasure Heirloom Artwork

Because you will blink twice and life is busy. Any it is our mission to not let those digitals collect dust on a hard drive.

Not only will we capture those treasured moments, but turn them into the lasting treasure they were meant to be. Let’s create quality heirloom wall art you can enjoy everyday. Let us take that off your plate, to ensure you hold onto the reminders of blessings and not the todo.

When I photograph a child in their world of imagination, we take our time to create a story they are the main character(s) of.  A magical tale of their days spent under the sea and perhaps coming up for air to experience the world and feel the sun while they splash their tales among the waves.

As a mama of five, I have held on to every snuggle and giggle and endearing moment when my toddler brings me a flower in the garden with a sweet, “for you mama!” Are there any words more tender to a mothers years. It brings me so much joy to help others remember those memories and just how much they touched your heart.

11 years ago before I had children, I had just gotten around to putting our own wedding portrait on the wall. I did not prioritize family wall art then, the way I do now. Now our children's smiles and our family laughter is embodied in beautiful portrait wall art we enjoy daily. Every time I climb the stairs, or come in through the front door. Our kids are celebrated and feel important and loved seeing themselves on the wall. All those trips on long days up and down the stairs of with laundry remind me as a mom of what is important and motivate me to be present.

Over the past 17 years I have had the joy of learning the art of storytelling for families with their beautiful milestones. I can’t wait to hold your hand through this stage of motherhood and help you cherish it the way I have learned to.

Newborn Session

Working with large groups is one of my super powers.  We will capture all the love and crazy but most importantly that heirloom full family portraits.  No matter the size of the group, we will plan ahead to make sure all the intended relationships are covered, grandparents with grandkids, the full party.

These sessions are just as playful and loving as can be.  We run and spin and hug and play.  I love to capture those intimate hugs and nose to nose kisses.  

Mom and Me Session

Length of time varies in our family sessions, but mind you, I have four children of my own, and I know how to work fast. Some sessions those littles may only have patience for a short period, others may not want to stop playing! We work together until we feel the intended moments and relationships have been captured.
