700+ sessions and counting

Welcome

I started photographing families because I believe the images you hang in your home shape the way your children understand your story.

Not the posed, everyone-look-at-the-camera kind. The real ones. The chaos and the quiet. The in-between moments that somehow say everything.

I've been photographing families, portraits, high school seniors and maternity sessions in Savannah, Georgia since 2011. I've photographed hundreds of families since then, and the thing that gets me every single time is watching people actually see themselves through my lens. That's what I'm here to create for you.

If that resonates, keep reading. I think I'm going to be a good fit.

What to expect

Before I talk collections or dates

  1. The right fit, first

    Before I talk collections or dates, I want to make sure this is the right fit for both of us.

    After photographing 700+ sessions since 2011, I've learned that the best images come from clients who feel at ease. Not from perfectly coordinated outfits or perfectly behaved kids. That ease starts with a conversation.

  2. Questionnaire and call

    When you reach out, here's what happens: I'll send over a short questionnaire to learn a little about your family, what you're hoping to walk away with, and what stage of life you're in right now. Then I'll hop on a quick call, or trade a few emails if that's easier, to answer questions and figure out the details.

  3. Getting to know your family

    I want to hear how you met, what your kids are obsessed with right now, whether you're the type who wants candid chaos or something a little more curated. All of it helps me show up prepared to make images that actually look like your family.

Portrait collections

The collections

Not sure which collection is right for you? The most common question I get is whether people will regret not getting the album. Most do. I'd rather you know that upfront than figure it out two months later when the gallery link expires.

Most clients come in thinking they just want the digitals and leave wishing they'd also grabbed prints. I designed these collections to make that decision a little easier, so you're not staring at a menu of 40 line items after an already emotional session.

Heirloom

The perfect way to remember the moments that matter most

There's a difference between images you have and images you live with. Digital files are wonderful. They're searchable, shareable, and easy to send to grandma. But they also live on devices that crash, in cloud accounts that expire, in folders that quietly go unopened for years.

Heirloom products exist for a different reason. A fine art album on the coffee table gets picked up. A framed print in the hallway gets noticed every single day. A keepsake box passed down to your kids becomes the thing they fight over when they're grown. These aren't luxury add-ons. They're the point.

Fine art albumsA lay-flat album is the closest thing to a book of your family. Pages lie completely flat so images spread edge to edge without a crease in the middle. Covered in linen, available in a range of sizes, and designed by me before anything goes to print. Upgrade options: leather cover, debossed name or date, linen color selection.
  • 12×12 album — $1,500
  • 10×10 album — $750
  • 8×8 album — $500
Wall artA professionally printed, properly finished piece ready to hang the day it arrives. No trips to the frame shop, no guessing at sizing. I offer a complimentary wall art consultation to help you choose the right image and size for your space before you order anything.
  • 30×40 wall art — $1,250
  • 20×30 wall art — $750
  • 16×20 canvas — $500
Keepsake boxA linen-covered box with a 4×6 print of every image from your session inside. The kind of thing that lives on a shelf for years and comes out on birthdays, anniversaries, the nights when you just want to look back for a while.
  • Keepsake box — $350

Products are ordered after your gallery is delivered. You'll have 60 days to place your order while the gallery is active.

Add anything you love

À la carte

Sometimes you fall in love with more images than your collection covers. Sometimes you decide halfway through the session that you absolutely need something for the living room wall. These are here for that.

Location inspiration

A few of my favorite spots in Savannah

The best locations are the ones that mean something to you — a favorite park, the backyard where your kids run wild, a neighborhood you've walked a hundred times. I'm always happy to work with wherever feels like home. But if you want ideas, here are a few of my favorites.

Forsyth Park fountain

One of my favorite spots to shoot in the fall. The light here is warm and golden with a bright and airy vibe. It's a short drive from downtown, easy to navigate with little ones, and usually quiet enough that we have it to ourselves.

    Factor's Walk

    One of my favorite spots to shoot in the winter. The light here is soft and filtered, along with a little rugged scenery.

      Wardrobe

      What to wear so the photos feel like you

      The number one question I get before every session: what do I wear? It matters more than most people expect, not because outfits make or break photos, but because how you feel in your clothes will show up in every frame.

      Complement, not match

      You're not trying to be identical, you're trying to feel cohesive. If Dad's in a blue and blush plaid, Mom might reach for a flowy dusty blue dress. If the kids are in neutrals, you have a lot of room to play.

      A few things that almost always work: stick to two or three colors across the whole family, choose color families over exact shades (pastels together, earthy tones together, jewel tones together), skip large logos and busy graphics, and reach for natural fabrics. Linen, cotton, and soft knits photograph beautifully. Layers help too. A denim jacket or linen overshirt adds interest without adding noise.

        For the littles

        I recommend color families over perfectly matched sibling outfits. A little coordination goes a long way, and kids are always more themselves in clothes they actually like wearing.

          Find inspiration

          I keep a Pinterest board updated with outfit ideas for every season and session type. Families, maternity, newborns, and everything in between. Ask me for the link when we chat.

            You simply must book him. He's an absolute GAMECHANGER.

            I hired Rodney to take family photo on a recent trip to Savannah. I found him through AirBnB and we met at Forsyth Park. He was on time, communicated clearly, and was able to capture beautiful photos of my family. I highly recommend hiring him for any of your upcoming photo needs!

            He was professional, on time and went above and beyond.

            There are not enough words to describe how great these pictures ended up! This isn't even a tenth of all of the great pictures that Rodney took. We had a wedding of about 12 people and he listened to every request that I asked and made sure that everything went perfectly.

            I've been working with Rodney for years, and the experience is always excellent. He has a great creative eye, comes prepared with solid ideas, and delivers high-quality photos every time. I trust his vision completely.

            Frequently asked questions

            How far in advance should I book?

            Earlier than feels necessary. My weekends, especially in spring and fall, tend to fill six to eight weeks out. A signed contract and deposit hold your spot. If you're expecting, book your newborn session before your third trimester.

            What if the weather doesn't cooperate?

            It happens and it's never a problem. I keep an eye on the forecast and will reach out if I need to make a call. I can move to another date at no extra charge, or find a covered or indoor location that still gives us beautiful light.

            How will I receive my images?

            Through a private online gallery within 2–3 weeks of your session. You'll be able to view, download, share, and place product orders directly from there.

            What should I do to prepare my kids?

            Not much. Don't hype it up as a big formal event. Kids pick up on that energy and tighten up. Tell them you're going somewhere fun to take some pictures, bring snacks, and let them be themselves. Some of the best shots happen when everyone stops trying to pose.

            What is an ordering session?

            After your gallery is delivered, I'll schedule a short call to look through your images together. I'll help you figure out which ones you love most, what products make sense for your space, and what everything will look like before you order anything. Most clients find this part a lot easier than they expected, and they walk away with products they actually use.

            Do you travel for sessions?

            Yes. Sessions within 60 miles of Savannah are included in your session fee. For anything beyond that, reach out and I'll figure out the details.

            Ready to begin?

            If you've made it this far, something here probably felt right

            To reserve your date, I'll need a signed contract and a $175 retainer. Once those are in, your spot is locked and I can get to the good part: planning your session, talking through locations, and figuring out what everyone's going to wear.

            Questions first? Send them over. No pressure, no rush.
