KaleidoSpark Co.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Sarah of KaleidoSpark Co. on her new branding photos! Sarah is a psychologist who works with all ages. Her office is a colorful, fun, and safe space for folks to explore their feelings, and she wanted the new branding photos to reflect that. I absolutely love her kaleidoscope-themed branding for her business, and we incorporated a lot of different colored tiles, fidget toys, and actual kaleidoscopes into her pictures to bring some of that color into her new photos and website. Sarah brought in so many wonderful models for this shoot to help bring it to life, and I thank each and every one of them for spending their afternoon with us! They helped showcase what a caring listener Sarah is and the relationship she has with her patients. Happy to help another small business bring their new website to life with updated photography. Thanks for your trust, Sarah!

Ashley + Alden // Chapel Hill Family Photographer

It was so much fun to photograph this family in their incredible house with their amazing kids! Their house is a dreaaaam, but also SO IS THEIR DOG. Her name is Winnie and I am her #1 fan. She’s like our cat Nadja, but the canine version (fluffy, joyful, Halloween-colored, attached to her dad’s hip). The human kids in the house are brilliant balls of energy, creativity, and intelligence. They enjoy catch-and-release fishing down at the nearby creek and searching for crayfish, reading, playing card games and instruments, and watching movies. We had a very endearing sticker exchange at the end of their session. They kicked their parents’ butts in the pillow fight (3 against 2 so the numbers were on their side). This was their first day of summer of 2026, and something about capturing this particular day for them felt very special to me. The time is fleeting but the pictures will remain. :) Thank you, friends!

Lea + Justin // Durham Family Photographer

This is my second time working with these delightful folks and my first time working with their youngest daughter! She is a total delight and loves popcorn and cats, much like her photographer. Both sisters are super into Derpy the Tiger from K-Pop Demon Hunters so I wore my Derpy t-shirt (yes, I have one and yes, it’s amazing) and immediately was welcomed into their circle of trust (okay, maybe not immediately, maybe had to sing a bunch of songs about crocodiles first, but Derpy definitely helped). I was also thrilled to photograph the incredible fluffy clouds that are the feline brother/sister duo of Chunk and Rhu Rhu again. Words can’t describe petting a cat like this. Our cats are long-haired but when you pet them it’s very clear that they have… how do I word this… substantial physique underneath their coats. Chunk and Rhu Rhu are long-haired but when you pet them, your hand just disappears into the softest, fluffiest cloud, and I’m not 100% sure either of them have bodies at all. They’re just small little angels of fluff and their demeanor is calm, quiet, and reserved – 100% the opposite of our cats in this regard as well. Anyway – love this crew and so thrilled to see them again!
