here to capture the beauty of your real, unscripted life,
because these are the moments that actually matter.
I'm Danica,
I believe the most powerful stories are the ones we live - the raw, unscripted moments that make up our real lives.
Plants are my therapy and every room in my house has 30+ potted plants.
I crave sunshine and nature - there's a reason we live in Colorado!
I've known I wanted to be a photographer since high school.
We have ducks, a dog and a tortoise.
Day-in-the-life of us in 2024
One day, your child will look for photos of you. Not the perfectly posed, filtered versions—but the real you.
The way you held them. The way you looked at them.
It's the family traditions that hold meaning for us in our lives.
Dad's Saturday morning pancakes.
Your favorite picnic spot and going barefoot in the creek.
Sunrise coffee on the front porch with your husband.
Bubbles and popsicles every day in the summer.
I want to give you more than just pictures. I want to give you reminders of the magic in your everyday.
Just like these photos are to me.
Why I Love family Documentary Sessions
Day-in-the-life of us in 2021
The best moments are unposed and unfiltered.
Time moves too fast—let’s freeze the moments you never want to forget.
You deserve to be in the story, not just the one telling it.
Whether it’s the raw intensity of birth, the quiet snuggles of a newborn, or the beautiful mess of family life, I’m here to document it all.
This was a different house, a different season, a different time for us. The kids were younger, wild, and life consisted of lots of laundry, time in the kitchen, and reading books, and while all those things can feel boring and routine, it means so much that the photographer, Angela Amen, captured our love and playfulness in the midst of it all.
What i believe
Day-in-the-life of us in 2017
We lived in a different house, in a different state, in the sweet fog and bliss of postpartum.
These are the moments that only grow sweeter with time.
I knew that first week after my second baby was born would be a beautiful blur—a fog of love, exhaustion, and new beginnings. I wanted to remember it all through photographs.
The first days of being a family of four. The tenderness of bringing him home, of settling into the space where our love would grow. Slow mornings in nature, quiet afternoons in the garden, curled up with books in our backyard tent, sweet newborn on my chest, even the toddler tears are some of my favorite pictures. Just living our simple life in the most meaningful ways.
This was almost a full day in the life session, and I will treasure these images for a lifetime. These ordinary moments bring me so much joy to relive. Because they grew too fast and the little baby is already nearly 8!
