This little one stole my heart the second they pulled up! Her little shy smile looking out the car window melted me. Then Mom pulled out the cutest little outfit and I could barely wait to get down the hill and play and that we did. It was such a fun little session. Do you […]

You have been my little sous-chef. Everytime I go into the kitchen to cook you run behind me and ask, can I help? It has been wonderful. Last night we made chicken and corn chowder together and this morning we made pan-a-cakes. As you would say. You proudly told me, we need to mix the […]

I have been lucky enough to know this family for years. We did a session together in Japan and I could not get over how much fun they were then. Getting to reconnect with them in Virginia earlier this year was like a dream. I thought they were funny all those years ago, now they […]
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.
tell me about your family
I would love to get to know you too!
