I remember flipping through his old black and whites. Delicately turning each page, in awe of every capture. Pictures of places I had never seen. People I didnt know. Sitting still in that moment. I was young. I had no idea that the flutter that I felt within would one day ignite my own passion. […]

Just the other night, while curled up in my husbands arms, it became clear to me. When my boys grow older, above all else, I want them to feel love. The love that greets you on your worst day with a hug, the love that knows everything about you and loves you even more, the love […]

I love being close enough to my clients to really know them. I have known this little guy since before he was born.  He just turned 18 months and to see him grow up has been a dream come true for me. He showed up for his shoot and was so quiet and a little […]

Take Two

family 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.
