Documenting Babyhood

As a parent, no one prepares you for how quickly the months and years pass after your baby is born.
Everyone warns you about the sleepless nights, the diapers, and the explosion of pure love, but not a lot is said about how those tiny little clothes only fit for a few weeks, and how you blink when they’re a month old and suddenly they’re turning two.

After parenthood, time is definitely on hyper-drive.

My children are all “big kids” now- my oldest is 16, my middle is 9, and my youngest is 5- but I can still remember those precious years filled with the pitter patter of tiny feet, baby giggles, and slobbery baby kisses. Yes, there were many sleepless nights, lots of worry, and at times frustration, but when I look back on those years, I feel nothing but warmth and love…and a little bit of sadness that they are over.

When my children were small, my husband and I were very poor. We couldn’t afford a camera or a decent cell phone, let alone professional portraits for our children. I was lucky enough to have a family member take a few photos, and later on, I started learning photography, but I really don’t have very many nice photos of my kids.

I guess maybe that’s why I am so passionate about creating beautiful, professional portraits of babies and children. I really hope to give parents this gift of remembering these precious years with beautiful, professional quality portraits that can be preserved and treasured forever.

I started photography as a hobby in 2016, and opened my business in 2021.

I proudly serve the Albuquerque Metro Area, including Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Los Lunas, Belen, Socorro and the surrounding areas. My studio is completely mobile, which means you can have studio quality portraits from the comfort of your own living room, in your own back yard, or at your favorite park or open space.
