Today as I unpack boxes I find glimpses of myself throughout the years. The volleyball t-shirt from the sixth grade that I so proudly wore, the unbelievably ugly decorations that maybe should spend the rest of their existence remaining in a box, the cards that my Mother wrote me many moons ago. It has all […]

The very last session in Okinawa…these were taken just two days before I stepped on the airplane to leave the island behind. I couldnt have dreamt of a better session to send me on my way.

Each time I visit home there is a special little someone I am always excited to see. I guess since I do not have my own little girl, she is the next best thing. She is my cousins daughter and she is something wonderful. You see, my cousins and I, we didnt grow up as cousins. […]

On our drive home, down a winding path through the woods, I found myself near tears. Why cant they just have a simple alarm clock, honey? I asked my husband. I just want to be able to go to a store and find what I need. I don’t know if I can do this again. Feeling overwhelmed and […]

Alarm Clocks

my story

There is something about the way they look at you or that little giggle that gets you every time. That moment that tugs a little harder on your heartstrings. The moment that you tell yourself you are never going to forget. As a mother, I find refuge in the natural images of my children, images that bring me right back to that smile, giggle or moment. 

Those images grow stronger as the years pass. At the moment the photo is taken I see it as it was. Years later and I am transported back to the moment and I feel like I can be right there again. I can even hear that little giggle that goes along with that look. To me that is the strongest investment I can make; being able to freeze time and return to it anytime I want. 

I personally created Serena Nicole Studios with a mother's wish in mind. I wanted a custom photography experience to capture all of those natural looks, smiles and giggle that will transport YOU in time. Looks that are carefully crafted by a fluid and natural portrait experience that is child centered. My photographic style is very tender to encourage every one to feel comfortable so they can show me their style all their own. 

I see your family as I would want to capture mine. Those looks between a mother and child, a finger wrapped tightly around yours. Candid expressions that showcase what makes your family unique and all your own. So that years later you can remember more than what you looked like but what you felt like too.
