Learn basic photo editing in Adobe Lightroom to get your photos looking their very best.

Last but not least, learn to photograph children in a way which respects their needs and invites opportunities for play and adventure to create more authentic captures of their personalities.

Hi, I'm Ginny. Internationally published photographer, mother of two, and world champion mud-pie-connoisseur.

Just like you, I'm in the thick of it. Up to my elbows, utterly drenched in motherhood. My days are filled with caring for two delicate little souls and it is equal parts challenging and magical. The days in which these little birds will stay safely inder my wing are numbered, and as hours turn into days, days turn into years, and in the blink of an eye they will be grown and these precious (yet tiring) days will be a distant memory.

But there are so many times when weeks go by and keeping up with the day to day chaos consumes us and we are left with a faint memory of what we didn't realize was a fleeting stage of their childhood and our parenthood. We must take time to document each detail of these precious little souls at each stage.

Parents, its not easy to take photos of your own children at home in a way which uses your confusing DSLR camera to its full potential, captures your children authentically and beautifully, AND fits into your everyday lives, but I want to make this fast, easy to digest, and well worth the effort - you will be able to create beautiful family heirlooms you will cherish for a lifetime.
