"We had a mini session with Desiree at an adorable Christmas tree farm & the pictures turned out great! In just 20 minutes, she was able to capture my little family- including my 4 month old daughter in some great shots that are perfect for our Christmas cards! Thank you!"

I'm based in Stow, Ohio, and I do travel.
Travel fees are included within 40 miles of Stow, Ohio.
I recommend starting to book around 1 month out so we can ensure there is enough time to secure your preferred locations and activities. Running on a shorter time frame? No worries, just reach out and we can start planning ASAP!
This could look like you going on a date in an art museum, walking through the aquarium together, having a romantic picnic, capturing board game night... in short, it can be anything you want it to be! I'll just be hanging out with y'all and taking your photos as you have fun!
As we are planning your session, we will think through some back up locations and activities in case of inclement weather. If it is just sprinkling day of, we can likely continue on as normal. In case of more severe weather, we will work together to pivot.

"I am obsessed with our photos from Desiree! I love her style. She captures the essence of the moment in such a magical way with her documentary-style sessions!
Desiree was so easy to work with! Both her booking process and gallery website are user friendly and easy to use. She is quick in her responses and very easy to communicate with. She was SO great working with my children and I will treasure how she captured tiny moments with them."
