Hi,I’m Simone

Photographer, wife, friend, and
Mom of 3. As a mom, I know firsthand that the time with your little ones is incredibly fleeting and passes by so quickly. You often can’t fully see or appreciate all the goodness and beauty when you’re right in the thick of it, caught up in the daily routine. That’s why I’m here—to help make sure those special, meaningful moments are captured and never forgotten.

They grow too fast

It’s the happiest and hardest thing, but you’ll never regret capturing the firsts, the snuggles, the phases, and every thing you wish you could bottle up and save for a lifetime.

why choose us

Choosing a photographer is more than picking someone with a camera—it’s choosing someone who truly sees your family.

At ILP, we know what it feels like to want to freeze time, to hold onto the big milestones and the tiny in-between moments.

With a mix of ease, intention, and a little bit of magic, we create images that feel real—never forced—so you can look back years from now and remember not just how it looked, but how it felt.

Client love

“Absolutely amazing!! The first time she shot my family our sweet little one was not cooperating. Even though Simone was awesome through it all I left thinking there was no way we’d get any good pictures...I was so wrong! I’m not quite sure how, but she delivered several wonderful poses and has continued to deliver ever since.”
