Hi, I'm Lara

Your Boca Raton area maternity, newborn and family photographer

I hope this page gives you a little glimpse into who I am.

 

I’ve loved taking photos for as long as I can remember. It just took me a while to realize I could do it for a living!

 

You know what they say, “Do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” I can honestly say that’s 100% true for me.

 

My grandfather gave me my first camera when I was in the third grade. I was so excited, I raced through a whole roll of film in ten minutes and begged my mom to take me to the drugstore to drop it off. A few days later, I tore open the envelope of prints and found 24 spectacular photos… of my own eyeball. I had the camera pointed the wrong way. First lesson in photography: check which way the lens is facing! 😄

 

A few things about me (because it’s only fair—after all, you’ll be trusting me with a very special chapter of your story):

  • I went to 13 schools between kindergarten and 12th grade (and no, we weren’t a military family!).
  • I proudly won “Chatterbox of the Year” in 5th grade from Mrs. Sealy, and I’d probably still win today.
  • I love old movie musicals, concerts, and making memories with family and friends.

Before becoming a photographer, I spent 11 years in Human Resources. After that, I took on an even more demanding role: full-time carpool driver to swim and hockey practices. And I wouldn’t trade that time for anything.

 

Is this starting to sound like a dating profile? Writing about yourself is weird. 😄

If you asked the people closest to me, they’d probably say I’m nostalgic, sentimental, always up for an adventure, and just a little bit silly. I believe life is meant to be enjoyed and it absolutely must be photographed.

 

When I photograph families, I’m genuinely excited about the images you’ll hang on your walls and flip through in albums for years to come. My goal is to make you feel comfortable, relaxed, and completely yourself.

 

When I’m editing, I often giggle or tear up at the expressions I catch and I just can’t wait for you to see them, too. If there are happy tears when we view your gallery together, I consider that the ultimate compliment. ❤️

 

Thank you for considering me as your family's photographer. The trust families place in me to capture their most precious moments is something I never take for granted. It’s truly a gift to do this work, and I’d be honored to be part of your story.

 

All my best,

Lara
