We have been waiting for the last piece of the settled puzzle. Waiting for our four bedroom home to be available. As much as I would like to say this waiting has been filled with peace and comfort, it has been nothing of the sort. I have felt so anxious. Mostly because I did not […]

This morning while I was talking with Tyler on skype, Jonathen and Papa Mark were busy learning to make the coolest paper airplanes. They checked youtube videos and created a few different planes. They flew them all through the house. The best part was seeing how excited both of their faces were. I love these […]

The best part of living in the states so far has been the company. We have had a houseful of guests pretty much non-stop. It is also great to live just a few hours from where my Dad trains. For years my parents have been traveling to MD and this time I get to see […]

I am dragging in a major way tonight and I look at this picture and I wish, wish, wish that I could have the stamina and energy that comes with being eleven! This picture took place during Jack’s bathtime. Jonathen came up and was so happy and chatty and sang his chorus songs to me […]

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.
