Maternity and Family Photographer in Los Angeles

Too posed and fake smiles turn me off. Yep, I said it!

If you are obsessed with genuine moments, photos that tell a story – then we can be best friends!

Beauty lies in the connection.
The connection between you and your unborn baby, the connection to your kids, the connection with your partner. Connection is everything.

And that is what I’m here to photograph.

Hi there, I'm Emelie!

I absolutely LOVE capturing beautiful things but I, myself, most often dress in my husbands old  but extremely comfortable t-shirts. I am passionate about gender equality, but constantly find myself feeling guilty when I can’t keep my house clean without help.

When I’m not behind the camera, or let’s be honest – in front of the computer – I am chasing my two year old around the parks in our neighborhood. 

Other things I enjoy are reading a good mystery book, crocheting and eating ice cream. Who doesn’t?

As a photographer I believe my biggest goal is to capture YOUR story. I’m not talking about documenting your looks and your best angles here. I’m talking about the love you feel for your kids, your desire to meet your unborn baby and your special bond with your spouse.

Let’s get out to our beautiful California beaches and parks, and create lasting memories to put on your wall!

Family sessions

If you are tired of stiff and posed family photos, and long for pictures filled with emotions and real smiles, my family sessions are for YOU! Drop the worries of whether or not your kids will behave and just show up as you. You will be guided into having fun and enjoy the time together, and I will just be there to capture the moments for you!

Maternity Sessions

Pregnancy is my favorite jam! Baby bumps, flowy dresses and sunsets are meant for each other. You will be guided through the session, with lots of movement and cuddles with your partner. Let’s create memories of this journey you’re on!
