The last thing you want is for your photos to sit untouched on your computer! Whether you prefer to print your photos yourself or allow me to take the task completely off your shoulders, I believe your home deserves to be covered in these tangible reminders of the love that it's filled with. I want you to be able to look at these physical pieces of art in your home throughout your day, and instantly be transported back to the moment captured in the photo. That feeling is everything.
begin with the end in mind.
Let's be honest...I know that these days it's easy to find prints, frames, and canvases available to the general public with a quick google search. And yes, just like shopping Amazon compared to shopping a local boutique, anything mass produced is going to be tons cheaper! I'm more than happy to point you in the direction of the best consumer retailers for your printed products if budget is the biggest priority (because raising families is expensive, and I get it!!).
But when it comes to the heirlooms that I offer, my goal is not to just provide you with the same types of products you could find anywhere else. After photographing hundreds of babies and families over the years, I've come to realize that the word "heirloom" actually means something special. It means timeless quality, one-of-a-kind craftsmanship; often even handmade. Each item in your gallery shop has been handpicked by me, most of which I have purchased myself and enjoy in my own home. I can't wait for you to fall in love with your images-turned-art as well!
heirlooms
handmade wood PHOTOBLOCKS
DECKLED EDGE prints
custom FRAMING + Gallery walls
Every framing job is customized to your space. We will work together (in person or via text) to select the perfect sizes and frame finishes for your home. I'll create a digital mockup using a photo of your wall to help you visualize what each size, shape, and arrangement of wall art will look best! Your prints can be framed with a permanent backing like true artwork, or with removable backs so that you can easily switch out the prints over time. You'll also be able to choose between traditional glass-front frames, or the unique option of ultra thick, lustre-coated prints displayed within the frame without glass (this makes them look like a painting!). Best of all, delivery and installation is included with all gallery wall designs.
I'm so excited to begin offering these one-of-a-kind heirlooms handmade in the Netherlands. Your image will be printed on archival fibers adhered to wood blocks, then framed in solid wood or bamboo. Also available unframed with or without a leather strap for hanging.
A beautifully unique fine art print with hand-torn edges.
Also available framed.
These are not your grandma's photo albums! Whether selecting a gorgeous and sturdy linen Coffee Table Book or upgrading to an archival quality Heirloom Album, I can promise you that you won't want these stored away in a closet! With their beautifully touchable covers and thick, durable pages filled with your favorite images, these books are true focal pieces of home decor meant to be featured, handled, and enjoyed! I know from experience in my own home that these albums will hold up to lots of love, even from little hands.
Kids don't have phones to reach for to revisit their favorite memories like we do. Bring the moments we've captured to life by letting them live in print in your homes! There's something so powerful for a child touching a photo - it's both a sensory and self-esteem boosting experience!
Got questions regarding any of the options or ready to book a session? I'd love to connect!
