Creating Meaningful Spaces with Photography & Home Design

Your home should be a place of rest, connection, and warmth—a space that welcomes your family at the end of the day and invites guests to feel comfortable and at ease. Through the lens of photography & interior design, your space can be thoughtfully designed, organized with purpose, and styled in a way that reflects your life without feeling stuffy or overdone.

Over the years, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for how photography and thoughtful home design work together to create spaces that feel both personal and timeless. Whether it’s capturing meaningful portraits or creating gallery walls that feel integrated into your space, my goal is to help you tell your story—both through the photos you display and the way your home feels.

How Photos Help Turn a Beautiful House Into a Meaningful Home

A home that truly feels like home is more than just beautifully decorated—it’s a space designed to foster connection, rest, and a sense of belonging.

Thoughtful Design: Showcase What Matters Most
Use photography and intentional design to highlight the parts of your home that tell your story—like a cozy reading nook or a wall of meaningful memories.

Lived-In, Not Stuffy: Make Your Home Feel Personal
Let your home reflect your real life. Professional portraits and relaxed styling bring a sense of warmth and authenticity to your space.

A Space for Connection: Display the Moments That Matter
Family photos aren’t just decoration—they’re daily reminders of what’s most important. Thoughtfully displaying them encourages connection and belonging.

Where Family Photography & Home Design Meet

Many families aren’t quite sure how to display their favorite memories in a way that feels natural and cohesive with their home’s aesthetic. That’s where I come in—not only to capture your memories but to help you live with them beautifully.

When I photograph clients, I’m always thinking beyond the session itself—I consider how the images will live in your home. From wardrobe choices to location selection, I help guide you toward colors and textures that reflect the overall feel of your space. Instead of chasing trends or bold backdrops, we focus on timeless settings that blend seamlessly with your personal style, ensuring your portraits feel like a natural extension of your home. I always consider tones that align with basic principles of color harmony, so your portraits blend beautifully into your space.

Styling & Displaying Photos with Intention

Portraits aren’t meant to live on a hard drive—they’re meant to be enjoyed daily. Thoughtfully framed images and gallery walls can bring warmth and personality to a space when designed with the home in mind—considering layout, scale, and balance. For all the favorite moments that don’t end up on the walls, heirloom albums offer a meaningful way to preserve the full story—creating something beautiful to revisit and pass down. When displayed with care, your portraits become a natural, lasting part of your home’s design.

Helping You Create Meaningful, Beautiful Spaces

I’ve always been drawn to warm, well-designed spaces—and I love helping others create homes that feel both personal and peaceful through incorporating photography and interior design. Whether it’s offering guidance on gallery wall placement or styling a room to feel more inviting, my approach is rooted in intentionality. The goal is always the same: to create a space that reflects your story and supports the way you live. If you’re looking for ideas, I love how Studio McGee balances warmth and minimalism—a style that complements personal, story-driven spaces beautifully.

My Background: Where It All Started

My love for home styling and photography began long before I ever turned it into a business. I grew up helping my mom with DIY home projects—choosing paint colors, laying tile, picking furniture, and making spaces feel cozy and personal. At the same time, I was constantly documenting life through my camera.

These two creative passions naturally evolved into what I do today: helping people capture memories and create spaces that feel deeply lived in, loved, and thoughtfully designed.
