You are welcome here.
I want to meet you where you are. I want to create a space that is welcoming and meaningful for everyone.
Professionally and personally, I have experience connecting with individuals who are neurodivergent and those who have disabilities. My childhood of growing up with a brother with Down Syndrome led to my career as a Speech and Language Pathology Assistant. This passion for communication and connection now flows into the creative outlet of photography.
During our session:
-we will follow the child(ren)'s lead
-we will prioritize regulation and take breaks as needed
-we can include special interests
-we aim to have fun and spark joy
Leading up to our session, I will send you a simple form that will help me to get to know who you are as a family and how I can best support you. We will plan a session that will set your family up for success (selecting a familiar location, choosing to do a preferred activity during the session, and considering other factors such as noise or other people that might be at a location.). Additionally, I will send over a visual story of "what to expect" that you can read together before the session.
Let's create a session that is meaningful and enjoyable for everyone.
