BOOKING CALENDAR
Please see my SPRING | SUMMER 2025 availability below, this booking calendar list will continue to be updated as dates are booked or when more come available.
With my three kiddos, I have many sports tournaments away this summer, so weekend availability is limited as I am their biggest fan and love to cheer them on! (I'm sure you can understand/relate!)
If there is a date you'd like that you don't see, please reach out and I can confirm if we can make it work or help find an alternative option. Looking forward to wonderful portrait sessions this season!!!

My Signature Style
Outdoor sessions take place June through October during the golden hour — the last hour or two before sunset — for the most flattering light, soft colors, and comfortable temperatures.
On the day of your session, I’ll capture a beautiful mix of candid moments, gently posed portraits, and intentional details that reflect your story. Each session is designed to feel relaxed, meaningful, and true to you — resulting in heirloom-quality images you’ll treasure forever.
"Photography is not only what you see but also what you feel."
- Ansel Adams
We have been using Deirdre for our annual family photos going on 9 years now. She is so incredibly talented behind the camera. She takes her time to get the most natural smiles from my children. We adore her. I highly recommend Deirdre!
