Some sessions stay with you long after the camera is put away, and my time with Rochelle was one of those.

From the moment we began, Rochelle brought such a kind, gentle energy to the space. She was stepping into a new season of her life and wanted fresh photographs that truly reflected where she is now—authentic, grounded, and full of quiet confidence. A branding session felt like the perfect fit.

I spent time creating images indoors and outdoors, letting each setting add its own layer to the session. Inside, the atmosphere felt calm and intentional, highlighting Rochelle’s warmth and thoughtful presence. Outside, the natural light added a sense of ease and renewal.

What I loved most about this session was how natural everything felt. There was no rush, no pressure—just space to be present, to create, and to let Rochelle be herself. 

Below are just some of my favorite images from our time together.

Rochelle, it was truly a pleasure photographing you. I hope you are finding peace on your journey, and I’m grateful to have captured these timeless images for you.  Oh, & your cheese board was one of dreams.
