Your story deserves more than just photos—it deserves to be felt, remembered, and cherished for a lifetime. I believe in creating portraits that go beyond just looking beautiful; they should capture the emotions, the connections, and the essence of who you are in this moment. Every session is thoughtfully designed to reflect you, whether we’re celebrating a senior year, a growing family, or a once-in-a-lifetime milestone.
With a dedicated Waxhaw, NC studio and the ability to photograph both studio and outdoor sessions across the Waxhaw area, I offer a personalized, stress-free experience where you can feel confident, comfortable, and truly seen. Let’s create something unforgettable together.
When choosing a Waxhaw, NC photographer for your motherhood, baby, or graduate session, you want someone who will make you feel confident, relaxed, and celebrated. My goal is to create a comfortable, fun atmosphere where you can enjoy every moment, whether you're snuggling your new little one, celebrating your growing bump, or reflecting on your senior's big milestone.
I’ll guide you every step of the way, ensuring your session is filled with joy and love, capturing the moments that mean the most to you and your family.

one year old milestone portraits
"Tobi is so easy to work with and knows all the tricks to keep your little one... and husband.. focused and engaged!
She has a way of capturing photos of all these little moments that you may even miss while you are watching the photo shoot. Every time she exceeds our expectations! We trust Tobi blindly with capturing all our family moments and are so grateful for her services. Could not recommend a better photographer!
bump to baby session
"If you are looking for a maternity and newborn photographer, the search should end with Tobi.
She is absolutely amazing and easy to work with. She did the bump to baby session with me, I could not have asked for a better photographer to make both me and my newborn more comfortable. Her organization and attention to detail is incredible, and she contains a wealth of knowledge relating to pregnancy and newborns. Thank you Tobi!
senior photo session
"Tobi did a beautiful job with my daughter's senior pictures. She really took her time to get to know my daughter.
She was quick to make my daughter feel comfortable and had great ideas for interesting and unexpected poses and shots. We both enjoyed every minute of her session. Maggie felt special and her photos are gorgeous. Highly, highly recommend!
