A Golden Afternoon at Highland Park: A Mother & Daughter Session to Remember

Family, Maternity

There’s something so pure and powerful about the bond between a mother and daughter. It’s laughter, quiet understanding, shared glances—and it deserves to be celebrated and remembered.

This recent session at Highland Park was everything I love about photography: heartfelt, light-filled, and full of authentic connection. The park was glowing with spring color—lilacs in bloom, golden sunlight peeking through the trees, and the soft rustle of leaves as this beautiful duo walked hand in hand through the gardens.

They twirled. They giggled. They slowed down and just were. And I had the honor of capturing every moment.

There’s something magical about photographing real relationships in a setting like this. The soft spring light. The backdrop of nature. The quiet joy in simply being together.


Thinking about doing your own mother-daughter session? Spring is the perfect time. Highland Park is stunning right now, and these moments? They don’t come twice.


Now booking limited spring and early summer sessions!

Message me to reserve your date—I’d love to help you freeze these memories in time.
