Because we lived overseas Tyler had to wait to get his license. I was the Mom taxi for a few extra years so it is surreal to see him driving my car! Crazy enough, I never feel nervous in the car with him as I expected I would. He does pretty good that Tyler. Then […]

And for a moment everyone was content. Jonathen proudly pulling his brother around the neighborhood, Jackson enjoying the ride, and me and my honey walking together enjoying each others company.  I am pretty sure today can’t top that.

From the moment he walked through the door we have been busy juggling. Kids, homework, work, kids, dinner, kids, bedtimes, it seems to never end. But the one thing that always gets me through, is knowing I have this to snuggle next to at the end of the day. One day it will be just […]

It was game night and the emotions ran the spectrum tonight! The funniest part of the night was when Jonathen got dealt ‘no dice’ (skip your turn) five times in a row! To have it happen once or twice in a game, maybe, but FIVE times! That became hilarious for all of us! We laughed, […]

Shelby loves to bake and we have the best time baking together. We used to watch cake boss together all the time in Germany. As soon as we learned we were moving to New Jersey we were so excited to visit Carlos Bake Shop, to see where it all started. So today was a special […]

my story

There is something about the way they look at you or that little giggle that gets you every time. That moment that tugs a little harder on your heartstrings. The moment that you tell yourself you are never going to forget. As a mother, I find refuge in the natural images of my children, images that bring me right back to that smile, giggle or moment. 

Those images grow stronger as the years pass. At the moment the photo is taken I see it as it was. Years later and I am transported back to the moment and I feel like I can be right there again. I can even hear that little giggle that goes along with that look. To me that is the strongest investment I can make; being able to freeze time and return to it anytime I want. 

I personally created Serena Nicole Studios with a mother's wish in mind. I wanted a custom photography experience to capture all of those natural looks, smiles and giggle that will transport YOU in time. Looks that are carefully crafted by a fluid and natural portrait experience that is child centered. My photographic style is very tender to encourage every one to feel comfortable so they can show me their style all their own. 

I see your family as I would want to capture mine. Those looks between a mother and child, a finger wrapped tightly around yours. Candid expressions that showcase what makes your family unique and all your own. So that years later you can remember more than what you looked like but what you felt like too.
