Hey! I’m Natalie! I’ve grown my photography business from a side hustle to a full time gig over the past 5 years, while growing my family. When I started my business I was married with no kids, and working full time outside the home. Now I am pregnant with baby #3 and work from home while being a state at home mom.
I’ve tried a little of everything when it comes to photography; weddings, senior portraits, newborn photography and families, but over time my passions have become maternity, newborns, and families (especially families of young kids). This is partly because this is the season of life I am also in and so I find myself relating to these families really well.
I also have a degree in business management and am passionate about all things business. I have enjoyed being my own boss and running the back end aspects of my business. Teaching and mentoring others has always been something that I am passionate about and I am so excited to share the knowledge and expertise I have gained.
