Hi, I’m Natalie and I can’t wait to meet you!
I am 31, married to my forever sweetheart and have two earth side babies. Well, I suppose they aren’t babies anymore being 8 and 4! Being the only female in the house I am surrounded by all things rough, tumble, nerdy, and dirty. And I love it! I am also a huge nerd with a super goofy side myself! Being a gamer and a geek comes in handy in my home full of boys.
I am also prone to laughter-inducing antics. My dad jokes (and love of hearing new ones) can sometimes get me in trouble in serious situations. Being born and raised in California I am a lover of authentic Mexican food but having lived all over the Midwest in the last 13 years I have fallen in love with the people and scenery.
I have a Super Power!
I am a tiny human whisperer who loves giving them purpose and joy in a situation most kids aren’t fond of. As an ADHD woman myself, being all over the place and following kids who are too is my game. I can be loud and goofy, but I also LOVE some quiet time and snuggles. I am able to get on the level of the reserved kiddos but also match the energy of the constantly moving energizer bunnies!
“Not only was Natalie able to able to take amazing photos she was able to capture my kids in all their crazy goofy glory. She got down on my kids’ level and let them be them instead of just telling them to be still.”

My love for photography started when I was a kid.
I saw the way my relatives’ shared stories through the photos on their walls and in their albums. And looking through the albums that have been passed down to me are great ways to share with my boys too. As a mom, I am also prone to hiding behind the camera instead of getting in front of it with my littles. So, when we get images and film showcasing us as a family, I try to cherish it.
The Family Session
Your family story is what I am here for. Every family has one, including yours. It is unique to you and best told by you. The season you are in is just like a baby, it won’t keep! So, let’s start documenting it so that one day you will have something to look back on fondly.
