This picture makes me think, makes me wish I could go back in time. For this picture melts my heart with Jackson’s concentration and the beauty of the moment. But there is more you can’t see. Jonathen is holding the branch down for Jackson. THAT is the story and yet, I did not capture it […]

He was digging through his toy basket and turned around with TWO binkys in his mouth. I instantly had to giggle as it was too cute, but even more funny is the fact he would never take a binky as a baby. Hence why they made their way to the toy basket. The story gets […]

He came down the stairs in his jeans and reached for his shoes. When I glanced over it looked as if he was wearing Jackson’s jeans. They were so tiny! I knew he felt taller but now it is obvious that he has grown several inches this summer! He couldn’t understand why I wanted him […]

On her way out the door to go back to the airport, Matt got this sweet shot of Mom and me. I miss her hugs already. I have to say the best part about living in the United States again is not living close to convenience, it is getting to see my Mom and Dad […]

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.
