A VERY WARM
WELCOME
As a luxury motherhood photographer, it is my privilege to celebrate your motherhood journey through photography! From maternity to newborn and through all your baby's milestones I am here to capture it all!
I'll work closely with you to style your session in a way that feels uniquely authentic to you. In-home or in-studio, I want you to feel beautiful and celebrated.
One of my favorite parts of the photography experience is our virtual planning call where we will talk about your session vision and goals and dive into my client closet to find a dress that you love and feel confident in!
Hi, I’m Laura! I live in Great Falls, VA with my husband, our son Wyatt, our daughter Mackenzie and our energetic dog, Layla! As a family we love to hike and travel together!
Both of our children were conceived via IFV after a difficult struggle with infertility. Our infertility journey was the driving force behind me pursuing my passion in Newborn Photography. I know how hard it can be to get to the point of holding your new baby in your arms and how important it is to capture and document that magical, memorable time.
The final piece of the puzzle is your gallery reveal ordering appointment. Too often our photos end up sitting in a folder on our computers. Your photos should be enjoyed now, hung on the walls of your home and cherished for the future in albums for your children to have one day.
Together we will design and order one of a kind, heirloom artwork like matted framed prints and custom albums.
You don't worry about a thing, I'll take care of it all! From the first stage of booking until you are holding your family's memories in your hand. So come on, let's make art together!
xo, Laura
DEAR laura,

Happy New Year ✨ Welcoming 2026 and celebrating one month with our sweet Hayes 🤍
Personally 2025 was a crazy year for our family. It simultaneously held loss, change and great joy. We had to say goodbye to my mother-in-law and our family dog 💔 We also moved into our forever home, and ended the year welcoming the most special gift, our third baby 🥰
Hoping 2026 is quieter on the home front because we’re laying the foundation for something BIG coming to PLS Photography! Stay tuned 👀
