louisville family PHOTOGRAPHER
I'm Missy, your Louisville family Photographer
I'm here to make sure you remember all the details
As a mother of two, I know just how quickly the years pass. Every season brings something new worth remembering, and every year your family changes in beautiful ways.
As a Louisville Family Photographer with more than six years of experience, I've had the privilege of documenting families as they grow—from tiny newborns to energetic toddlers, growing children, and everything in between. There's something so meaningful about creating a tradition of annual family photos, preserving not only how everyone looked, but the love, connection, and little moments that make your family uniquely yours.
My family sessions are designed to feel relaxed, joyful, and genuine. From access to a thoughtfully curated client wardrobe to gentle guidance that keeps everyone feeling comfortable, every detail is planned so you can focus on simply being together. Whether we're exploring a beautiful outdoor location or capturing quiet moments of connection, my goal is to create timeless images that tell the story of your family exactly as you are in this season. Years from now, you'll be able to look back and remember not only what life looked like, but what it felt like.
This is what I do for you
The Complete Experience
Styling & Planning
Once you've booked your Louisville Family Photography session with me, we'll meet at my studio to plan your session! I'll help style you & your babies with outfits that have been carefully curated & photograph beautifully. We'll finalize a location & start discussing what your goals are for artwork in your home.
Session Day
If you're using my hair & makeup artist, I will have her scheduled to pamper you before your session. I'll have your outfits steamed and ready to go on location. We'll have a fun, relaxed session together. My gentle guidance and eye for detail will help us capture the beauty and essence of your family in a natural way.
Design & Ordering
When your photos are ready, we'll meet again at the studio for your photo reveal and ordering appointment. You'll view custom artwork designs I've created just for you, and we'll finalize all the details that make the artwork uniquely YOU.
MMP clients plan to spend $1200+ at their ordering appointment.

Kind Words
"We love Missy and will definitely be back to capture more precious memories!"
Missy is the best! She completely took the stress out of our family photos by handling everything, including styling outfits for me and the kids with beautiful color options tailored to our taste. She has created an environment where my two boys feel completely comfortable, allowing their personalities to shine. We love Missy and will definitely be back to capture more precious memories!
