I've specialized for many years working with individuals with special needs and who are neurodiverse, Understanding how individuals think and communicate across many developmental levels, I enter their world as they lead me through their preferences, dislikes, strengths, needs, and wishes. I combine this developmental understanding with my portrait photography to create authentic depictions of them. Many times individuals with special needs, especially those with more severe involvement, don't receive the opportunity for portraits in order to personalize their homes and represent who they are as individuals. It is my honor to offer this experience. Including families in these once-in-a-lifetime opportunities can be so rare, which makes it my honor to offer such a unique opportunity to families of individuals with special needs as well.

Similarly, family photography is a special and sacred moment in that many years go by without documenting and their special connection together. It's my honor to work with families so they can stop and just enjoy their images hanging in their home, office, or any other personal space.
