preserving real moments for adventurous families
that capture your dynamic

chattanooga photographer

After losing my fiancé, I realized the profound importance of spending as much time as I possibly can with those I love and to preserve memories with them. Though I don't have children of my own, my nieces are among the most important people in my life, and I am freakin shocked by how quickly they are growing up.




"Aunt Lara? Can you show me photos of my Unlce Andy?"
My niece asked

Meet Lara

i believe in capturing life's in-between moments that truly reflect our personalities

The Experience

I strive to create a fun, carefree vibe during photo sessions using prompt based poses. It’s in this controlled, yet fun, environment that genuine connections and joy within your family are captured. 
I love working with all different types of families, but my absolute favorite is extended family sessions. I love being able to capture interactions between folks who don't spend everyday together, and offer a shared experience they will look back at fondly through their images.

Many families feel uncomfortable with rigid, posed photography that doesn't capture their true dynamic. I strive to create a relaxed and fun environment where real moments naturally unfold. By using prompts and activities we are able to break the dread of photo sessions and just have fun. Capture your family as you are today, right now, and ensure those precious memories are never lost.

I know it's not always easy being in front of the camera- I'd be lying if I said I particularly enjoy it myself.
All too often expectations from those around us make the experience worse.
That’s why I don’t use traditional rigid posing techniques.
Sure, we’ll take some photos of you all looking at the camera and smiling, but I’m more interested in the genuine moments that happen when we aren’t being asked to ‘say cheese!’ 

Are You Ready To Do this thing?!

The Process

The better I get to know your family's dynamic and everybody's interests the more personal your session will be!

1. tell me about your family

We'll discuss what best fits your vibe and decide if we should work at your home, a local park, or somewhere else specifically unique to you!

2. Determine Location & Time of Day

What you choose to wear for your photo session can make or break the final product. Don't worry, I'll help advise and even have a free guide below to get you started!

3. pick complementary outfits for everybody

Once all the details have been decided, it's time to preserve your memories! All you have to do is show up with your beautiful family and have fun!

4. Session day!!!

After the session, you'll receive a carefully curated gallery that captures the essence of your family.  Delivery times vary based on season, but are typically 2-4 weeks.
