Virginia Beach Kids Photographer
These aren't just portraits, they're a celebration of childhood magic
Real talk? Convincing your kid to sit still for a photo sounds about as easy as teaching a mermaid to walk. But lucky for you, we’re basically the Hogwarts professors of photography - magic wands included. You bring the kid; we’ll handle the rest.
Forget stiff poses and awkward smiles - this is about capturing your kid being exactly who they are: quirky, hilarious, and downright awesome.
Tiny Humans,
Big Dreams
We’re here for every family: big, blended, rainbow, or just plain busy. We create an experience so fun you’ll forget this started as a photo session. And when it’s all said and done, you’ll walk away with photos that make everyone in your life stop and say, “OMG, where did you get those done?”
With piles of “Best Of” awards, raving reviews, and a sprinkle of digital magic, we’ve got you covered. Trust us, these aren’t just photos.
They’re memories your kid will look back on and say, “Wow, my parents really got me.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I book a theme at any time?
What does my kid wear?
Can we bring friends, cousins or siblings?
Do you offer digitals?
Not quite! Our themed sessions are seasonal superstars, designed to shine during specific times of the year. Think Ice Princess magic in winter, Santa sessions in November (because Santa’s gotta prep for Christmas, duh), and other epic themes that align with the seasons or special events.
We go all out - elaborate sets, costumes, and a studio transformation that would make Hollywood jealous. That’s why these sessions are usually offered for just ONE DAY a year! Want the inside scoop? Join our Newsletter list, where subscribers get first dibs on booking.
Literally nothing… okay, wait, let me rephrase that. We provide literally everything! From costumes to accessories, we’ve got it covered.
When you book, you’ll fill out a quick questionnaire so we know your child’s size and personality, and voilà, when you show up, it’s all ready to go. All you need to do is show up with your kiddo looking adorable—maybe give their hair a little TLC beforehand—and let us do the rest!
Well… maybe. It really depends on the theme. Siblings? Always welcome—family love is our jam! But for friends or cousins, it gets trickier. Some themes are more time-intensive, so squeezing in 6 kids in a 30-minute session might leave us all scrambling. If you’re thinking about bringing the whole crew, we recommend booking separate sessions to make sure everyone gets the attention they deserve.
Oh, absolutely! We’ve got options for digital-only collections and print-only collections, but let’s be honest... the best choice is both. That way, you can enjoy those magical moments hanging on your wall and send them to grandma, your bestie, and your entire Instagram following. It’s a win-win for everyone.
The Process
We Do Sh*t Differently Here
Look, you’re busy, I’m busy, and nobody’s got time for boring or complicated.
Here’s how we make the magic happen:
1. Discovery Call
We’ll hop on a call where you spill the beans on your kiddo’s favorite things. Whether you’re full of inspiration or in full-on “just tell me what to do” mode, I’ll guide you through everything. By the end, we’ll have a plan that makes your kid’s dreams and your stress disappear.
2. Book Your Session
A quick booking fee secures your spot, and then the fun begins! We’ll plan all the magical details, from costumes to props, ensuring everything is ready for your kiddo’s big day. All you need to do is show up - we’ve got the rest handled.
3. Photoshoot Day!
This is where we create pure childhood magic. Your kid gets to dress up, act out their favorite characters, and dive into a world where their imagination takes center stage. Watching their eyes light up as they step into their dream world? Priceless.
4. Image Reveal
A week or so later, the real magic unfolds. You’ll join me to see how we’ve brought your kid’s imagination to life with extra touches of artistry and whimsy. We’ll choose printed art that lets your kid remember the time their wildest dreams became reality.
"I just wanted to let you know what a great time we had at your studio today!
My daughter Charlotte is shy and quiet but it’s all she could talk about as soon as we got in the car, and she told her friends all about the magic she did!"
