MEET ELLIE

I’m so glad you’re here. As a mom, I understand how quickly these moments slip by, the tiny hands, the belly laughs, the new milestones that feel both joyful and bittersweet. That understanding is what fuels my passion for creating heartfelt, authentic imagery for families in every season.

I was born and raised just outside of Columbia, MO, and now I’m a mom to two little ones who keep my world beautifully busy: my sweet girl who’s almost two, and my spirited boy who’s officially a kindergartener. They’ve taught me patience, gentleness, and just how meaningful it is to pause, slow down and be present in a moment you never want to forget. Alongside them, I share life with my incredibly supportive husband and our fur babies.

For the past three years, I’ve specialized in maternity, newborn, and family photography, crafting sessions that feel calm, safe, and natural, especially for mothers who want to feel confident trusting someone with their baby. I also photograph micro-weddings, elopements (limited availability), and graduate portraits for those milestone moments beyond motherhood.

Whether we’re swaddling your newborn, savoring the magic of pregnancy, laughing with your kiddos during a sunset session, or giving you a tissue to wipe your eyes during your baby’s senior session, my goal is to create a comfortable experience where you can relax, be present, and let me capture the moments that matter most to you.

If my heart and style resonate with you, I’d love to connect.

Send me an email or DM with what you’re dreaming up, and together we’ll bring your vision and your memories to life.
