The Keepsake Studio
The studio is on a tiny little farm right here in St. Charles.
Filled with softened light, weathered wood, wild greens, and collected vintage treasures, this space was created to feel less like a photography set and more like stepping into a quiet, enchanted world. The translucent walls allow light to pour in from every angle, creating a dreamy glow that brings warmth and nostalgia to every image.
Within moments, stories begin to unfold. Imaginations take over. Ordinary moments become little keepsakes.

Just a touch of whimsy..
The Keepsake Studio is a earthy, whimsical space where children can explore, play, and let their imaginations wander. I’ve carefully gathered baskets of little treasures for tiny hands to discover, vintage books, tea sets, wooden toys, flowers, butterfly wings, headpieces, trinkets, and more.
A few reasons why the Keepsake Studio is the best spot for your next session..
- There is nothing like it in St. Charles!
- During the week and weekend sessions. Day and evening times!!
- Controlled environment. The Studio is steps away from where you will park. Nice & easy if a mom is coming solo!
- Everything in the studio can be touched! Picked up. Played with. You do not have to worry about little ones breaking anything.
- Surrounded by fresh air and fields! And I'm sure, a few random chickens.
- Free to bring snacks, favorite blanket, stuffy, any props you want as little keepsakes in your photos.
- Tea sets, butterfly wings, wooden toys, treasure boxes all to encourage story telling.
- Don’t worry about posing or doing the right thing. I’ll guide you throughout the session. I’ll sneak in a few smiling-at-the-camera moments, lightly direct you into what feels natural, a portrait or two and help tell a little story about who you are.
