Tyler, as a little boy, would come alive at night. He would get giddy and downright silly. Even still, nineteen years later, he lights up the night. Jonathen likes to get his beauty sleep (just like Mom) and I believe we are going to have a night owl sandwich. Jackson, like Tyler, comes alive at […]

On his way to his friends house he gave me a call, “Mom, listen to this song I just made up”. He sang and sang. The words all flowed together perfectly, even through the rock, grungy lyrics there was beauty. His ability to link words to create and evoke feeling was magical and I felt […]

Laundry day turned out to be pretty cute. Jackson got to learn that Mommy doesn’t like it when you throw her piles of laundry all over the place!! So he decided to hide in the basket instead. I have to giggle when I see this. I just imagine me asking, “Jackson, who are you hiding […]

It was an unexpected call. At first Matt didn’t say a word, I was so confused. Then he turned the camera to show the airplane and helicopter working together to get refueled. He couldn’t hear us because the chopper was so close and LOUD. Jackson loved the airplane but loved it even more when Daddy […]

I can count on one hand how many times I have got to watch him sleep. Today was one of them. It just fascinates me to see him so still and calm. I find myself studying all of his features. Always drawn first to his eyelashes and lips. Oh little Jack, I wonder if you […]
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!
