The Commercial Studio is open!

As of February 1st 2021 the new commercial studio is open! I’ve received so many compliments and the families that have been photographed in the new space just love it! I’ve been asked what made you finally get a studio?

Well, I’ve been wanting the perfect commercial studio for a while, and it just took time to find the perfect space to continue to serve the families of Columbus Ohio. I had a vision of what I wanted it to look like, the aesthetic appearance, and ceiling height and location were all important to me! 7 years ago I started photographing all of my amazing clients in my home studio. I started in our bonus room, and then moved to the first floor room. It was a tight space, but I made it work. Over time I extended the home studio to be double the size and it worked great, clients loved it! But, with the ongoing pandemic, I especially wanted a space that was separate from my home for clients to come to for so many reasons, and I wanted to make sure they felt they were also offered the best opportunity for their sessions!

But, it was time!! It was time for more space, it was time to have more opportunities to offer more variety in my sessions, it was time to better the experience and professionalism I offer my clients! After all, this isn’t just about the photos I take and you receive; this is about what I offer all of you and the one of a kind experience you receive!

I know driving time is a huge consideration to families when booking a photographer, especially a newborn photographer. I am conveniently located off route 70, and minutes form 270. The commercial studio is located in front of the Taylor square shopping center. This gives families with younger siblings options for their newborn sessions if they don’t want to stay at the studio. Retail, lots of food options, and even Blacklick Woods metro park is 5 minutes away!

Having 1300 sq ft creates a more comfortable environment for my families. This gives me the ability to work quicker and more efficiently during your session! Having everything set up and ready to go is essential for all sessions! My goal is to have every family in and out within 2 hours or less for newborn sessions, and an hour for milestones. As new parents, with a newborn baby, your time is important to me! The studio is full of the best props and accessories available on the market, and a collection of designer clothing for moms and children!

I welcome you to schedule a tour and come see the studio in person! I would love to meet you, go over specific details for your session, and share the extensive collection of props and wardrobe that will make your custom portrait session one of a kind!!

Thanks to all my amazing clients for the continued love and support the past 7 years. I wouldn’t be where I am today without you!

I’ve always wanted to remodel the studio with a lifestyle bed setup, use the beautiful natural light from my windows and redo the flooring with a distressed wood look! This quarantine 2020 has been the perfect time to tackle all of my studio plans!! We’re ALMOST done, but I wanted to share the updated space with you!

I’ve enjoyed designing this space to be welcoming and cozy and allow parents to feel safe and comfortable while I photograph their little one. I equally love neutrals and soft pastels and you will see this throughout my studio.

I’ve spend endless hours finding the most perfect and best products to offer my clients to have of their images. You will see some of my favorites here, and I have even more on the way I will share soon! The beautiful lay flat photo albums, wood heirloom photo blocks, and torn edge mounted prints are my favorites.

Welcome to my studio. I hope you enjoy!

Columbus Ohio First Birthday Photographer

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of celebrating Jhulianna's first birthday cake smash session with her!  This adorable baby girl and her family from Reynoldsburg came to the studio to capture some memories to celebrate her first birthday!

She was a little shy, but you would never know from all the smiles we captured!  She thought some of my tricks were hilarious, so I call that a win!  Her mom chose pink and gold for her custom cake smash setup.  I focused on creams and pink for her portraits as well.  She looked darling in anything we used!

When it came time for the cake, Jhulianna was way more interested in the balloons, but I love the images of her holding them!  Her mom chose a beautiful album and a canvas of her images and I hope they cherish them for years to come.  Thank you again Balmeo for choosing me to capture these memories for your family!

Columbus Ohio First Birthday Photographer

Zora's mommy first contacted me about planning a birthday session for her little girl with a cake smash!  She requested a unicorn cake smash setup designed with pink, purple, mint and gold.  I loved designing the setup for her!

When Zora first arrived she was full of smiles.  I had just received new rompers from one of my favorite vendors, Cora & Violet, so it was perfect timing!  She looked adorable in the cream romper and the floral one!

Zora loved smiling and clapping with me.  You can see her adorable smiles in the images I will share.  I have to say, she didn't love her cake though.  Her mommy brought the darling tutu dress and unicorn headband as her first birthday outfit.  Miss Zora was more interested in the gold star decor than the cake.  But, I just love her gallery and all the expressions we captured.

Thank you again Johanssen family from Columbus, Ohio for giving me the opportunity to capture Zora's first birthday milestone memories!
