It sneaks in, starts with just a throb but this time it turned into much more. I tried to fight it all day. But it kept sneaking back in. I willed it away, but it was relentless. By 7:30 it had taken over. Jackson must have seen it in my eyes. He did his bedtime […]

Our street is quiet. That is a wonderful thing in theory. But I mean, there are houses around where you wonder if anyone even lives there. I often ask myself, how can that be? I am outside more than I am in when the weather is nice. So it has been lonely in my neighborhood. […]

For some meals a spoon just won’t do. Taco rice is Jackson’s absolute favorite. When all else fails it is our trusty standby. It must have the perfect proportion of rice, cheese and meat (with carrot and spinach puree, shhh) to make an ooey gooey delight! Tonight he made me giggle. He laid back in […]

He got frustrated. He asked for help. We gently declined. Forcing him to push through and shine. And that he did. He created his shelter and turned the sprinkler on to test his structure and it worked. If only he knew what an amazing life lesson he just learned. When life gets tough, get tougher […]

Haircuts, check. We are officially ready for summer. Jonathen decided to take the plunge and that it was finally hot enough to get a short cut. I love seeing his face. I find myself lost in his eyes. I wanted to capture the boys with their new haircuts so I took them out to our […]

I never thought it would be this way. I truly started my 365 project because my memory had let me down so many times before. I wanted to be able to hold 2012 in my hands long after it has passed. I wanted to be able to remember all the little things that make our […]
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.
