Welcome to a one of a kind, luxury photography experience dedicated to serving busy moms every step of the way.
From wardrobe styling and professional hair and makeup services, to album design and complimentary framed print gallery wall installation, no detail is missed.

Welcome, I’m Oksana!

As a Tacoma newborn, maternity, & family photographer, and momma to two little girls, I’m an expert in knowing just how busy motherhood can get and how quickly our babies grow up. After becoming a mother, my mission was to create a stress free portrait experience for busy moms who truly care about all the details of memory preservation. My sessions allow you to focus on your beautiful family and have fun, while I take care of the rest, leaving you with gorgeous photos and artwork to cherish and look back on for years to come.

Why work with Me

Time

Your time is valuable, which is why important and consuming details like wardrobe planning is taken off of your plate. Not only do you have access to the studio client closet, an impressive complimentary hair and makeup experience is offered for busy moms as well to ensure you look your best for your session.

Experience

I’ve photographed over 100 babies over the course of my career and taken numerous posing and safety classes with world renowned photographers, so you can rest assured your little one is in good hands. My passion is working with children and if I need to be silly and act a fool to get them to giggle for that perfect portrait, you can bet I will! When it comes to styling your family outfits and posing, I always take time to ensure everyone’s preferences are heard and acknowledged.

Artwork

You’ll never be left wondering what to do after your portrait session. Carefully selected custom products are designed and ordered, from albums to framed prints and print boxes, and the design process takes into account the style of your home to make sure your memories truly come alive and are a show stopper.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clients book as early as the first trimester, but the second trimester is perfect! To ensure I have room in the calendar, booking earlier than later is always recommended.

Although I’m happy to photograph your little one at any time, to get those sleepy curly poses a fresh baby is best. If your baby is older, we simply adjust the posing slightly and we still have a good time! The baby might just be a little less sleepy.

I photograph the majority of newborn sessions in my cozy studio, but happy to travel for newborn sessions and even maternity and family sessions!

After your photo session, a viewing and ordering appointment is scheduled 7-14 afterwards. The entire process, from designing your artwork to editing your images and ordering products, takes between 4-12 weeks depending on multiple factors. I take a lot of pride in my work and put in a lot of effort, therefore I do not rush.

Of course! The entire family is welcome, including furry babies!

Absolutely, this is always the client’s favorite part. I will help guide you through every detail to make sure the artwork you are left with is stunning and exactly what you pictured.

Hair and makeup services are complimentary with signature sessions and i work with some of the best makeup and hair stylists in the industry. You will be in great hands!

I offer a stunning client closet for the family, including 50+ dress options for moms in all sizes and styles. All you have to do is literally show up in comfy pajamas to your session and I will handle the rest!

I have more answers! Send me a message and we’ll chat.

Why I Became A Photographer in Tacoma

After living in over 12 cities around Washington state throughout my life, the surrounding Tacoma area felt like home and still does. I’m constantly inspired by the beauty of the PNW, which was the reason why I picked up a camera for the first time in middle school. Tacoma has great culture and so much diversity, endless outdoor activities within an hour drive, some of the best coffee shops around, I couldn’t ask for more. 
Maybe one day I’ll find something better, although I doubt it.
