On this snowy January morning I can not help but want to transport in time back to this sweet family on a beautiful fall morning in Virginia. The setting couldn’t have been more perfect. When I arrived in Virginia the day before, my host (and dear friend) Shana and I went out scouting for my […]

The warm water gushed while the bubbles piled high in the tub. I plunked you into the bath and instantly you laid all the way down until your chin touched the bubbles and told me “I loooove baths” in the sweetest of voices. We were hiding out from the cold wintry day outside and I […]

There are few days that are as loaded as the very first day of the year. A quiet moment on this day and you cannot help but reflect, dream, and even wonder a little. For it is the one day of the year that almost forces you to stop and take note. Like a natural […]

Not staged, not planned… just a glimpse of the man he is growing to be. Be still my heart. But don’t worry, he is still a little boy eating snow on the inside!

A very special peek at a very special little girl…we havebeen waiting for her ever since I met her amazing parents a few years ago in Germany. She arrived at just 32 weeks…and after spending a little time with her, I just know it is because she was too smart to hang out in there […]

It is the culmination of all of your life expereinces that make you who you are. I think that is something that I believe most. It of course is how you choose to interpret your experience that eatablishes your personality and how your experiences will impact your life. Nineteen years ago my world changed in […]
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.
