For 25+ years, I’ve photographed thousands of children and families. But I’ve also done something quieter... I’ve sorted, deleted, protected, and archived hundreds of thousands of images for safekeeping.

As a portrait photographer, I’ve learned how to quickly see which images truly matter and which can thoughtfully be let go.

Still, I know how hard that is. I’ve watched parents sit with full hearts during image selections, not wanting to part with a single image.

I imagine it’s the same when you try to clean out your phone. You upload everything to the cloud, and just like that, it’s out of sight. Until the next batch piles on, your space fills up, and clutter returns. The process starts again.

I get it. I’ve been there.

Long before iPhones, it’s been my job, and my joy, to care for the photos that hold the most meaning.

Now, I do it for your camera roll. So you can hold on to the heart of it all, without the overwhelm.

I’ve got you. No worries.
