Real life, real laughs, right where it all happens.

Because the best memories don’t happen in a studio.

They’re in your backyard. In the golden light. With dusty toes, wild hair, and kids chasing bubbles between the garden beds.

These aren’t just photos. This is the story of your summer, exactly as it was.

Not the tidy version. Not the someday version.

But the wild, messy, backyard kind, where your kids are barefoot, the grass is patchy, and everything feels real.

You might think,

“Maybe next summer.” But we only get so many of these.

So many sticky popsicles.
So many wild giggles.
So many golden, ordinary evenings before they grow past them.

These photos will feel like home.
Like the version of your family you’ll one day ache to return to.

Because one day, this messy, magic backyard chapter? It will be the one you ache to remember.

“Brooke has this

calm, gentle presence

that instantly

put our whole (big, loud!)

family at ease.”

This is a one-of-a-kind photography experience designed around the messy, magical reality of your home life.

You don’t need the mountains. You don’t need matching outfits.
You just need your people, your backyard, and a little golden light.

This is where you live. And it’s beautiful.

it's about preserving

What You’ll Walk Away With:

✓ Photos that feel like your life, not someone else’s.

From muddy feet to sleepy snuggles, I’ll capture the texture of your everyday. These aren’t portraits, they’re reflections of your family’s story.

✓ A relaxed, pressure-free experience.

Gentle guidance and space for you to be yourselves, and connect. The result? Real laughter, real moments, and photos that take you back.

✓ Beautiful, lasting keepsakes.

Whether you choose a fine art print, an heirloom album, or keep them digital, you’ll walk away with something that freezes this season in time, exactly as it was.

What You’re Investing In:

  • A chance to be in the photos with your kids — not just behind the camera.

  • A reminder of what home felt like during this season of life.

  • Proof that the everyday is more than enough.

I photograph the in-between. The real bits. The things your kids will recognize when they’re grown. And remember.

“Brooke knew when to step in with playful direction, and when to quietly let the moments unfold.”

Session Fee: $149 (normally $349)

What’s Included:

  • A 90-minute documentary-style session in your backyard, capturing the real stuff — the wild, the soft, and everything in between.

Optional add-ons:

  • Digital image collections starting at $329

  • Fine art prints and heirloom album upgrades are available.

These are the photos that feel like your summer — muddy toes, golden light, belly laughs, and backyard chaos.

Most families invest around $500 because they want to keep every moment.

Hi, I’m Brooke

Why backyard sessions?

Because this is where the real stuff happens.

I created the Backyard Summer Series to celebrate the simplicity and beauty of home, the place where muddy toes, bubble wands, and spontaneous hugs live. I don’t want to make you perform, pack up, or drive across town.

These sessions are about slowing down, staying close, and capturing the fleeting magic of summer in the place your kids feel most free.

We only get so many summers with them, and I want to help you remember the way this one felt.
