He asked to take a bath in the middle of the afternoon and my heart just cringed. That is the very first signal that our little Jonathen is not feeling well. He came down stairs and watched tv and seemed okay. Then he refused one of his favorite dinners….my heart sunk again. Then he went […]

It was one of those conversations. We have a serious check-list for our retirement (from the military) that is in three short years. Boxes to check. money to save, education to complete, it is all becoming real. Never more so than when we talked over the ‘need’ for our beautiful BMW. Can we afford it, yes. […]

These two are full of giggles, but when they are sharing those giggles there is a special part of me that lights up. Yesterday it was 60 degrees outside, today it was 80! So we made the most of it and our turned on our new sprinkler. The boys played for an hour. Running back and […]

He was three. Three years old when he first put together the pieces of his chunky toddler k’nex into the now famous upside down U shape. Little did we know that this very shape would be famous in Jonathen’s childhood. He still at 11 has it with him every day and almost every where. Today […]

I hear that it is normal. I read that it is normal. I get somewhere inside that it is normal. But to witness my little guy in just over a year go from the healthiest baby on the block eating every vegetable and fruit and pretty much anything he can get his hands on to […]

I had my back turned to Jack while he was busy playing when I heard “da, da, da, mumm, mummm, mummmm.” Then he said it again. I hurried to turn and see what he was doing. That is when I saw him holding the little farmer and the little girl and bouncing them around on […]
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.
