Time Moves Fast—Photos Helps Us Hold On
Time has a way of sneaking past us, doesn’t it? One minute, I’m cradling my baby girl, and the next, I’m looking at my 11-year-old, wondering how she grew up so fast. As a mom and photographer in DFW, I feel this every day. Watching her change before my eyes has made me reach for my camera time and time again. Milestone photography sessions have become my way of preserving these fleeting moments—not just for myself, but for other families who want to capture the little details that make childhood so special before they fade into memory.
Milestones Are More Than Just Birthdays

When we think of milestones, we usually picture birthdays, graduations, or other big celebrations. But the truth? Growth happens in the smallest moments, too.
It’s in the way their smile changes as they gain confidence. The way they tilt their head when they’re curious. The way they sit, totally lost in thought. These little shifts tell the real story of who they’re becoming.
As a mom, I see them every day. As a photographer, I know how important it is to capture them before they fade into the blur of busy days. Because childhood moves fast, and these are the moments we’ll want to keep forever.
Photos That Capture More Than Just Faces
When I look back at photos of my daughter, I don’t just see what she looked like. I see her spirit. I see the courage and curiosity she’s carried through every stage.
And one day, I hope she’ll see it too—a collection of moments that remind her of who she was and how much she was loved.
