Inside look at your session.

I love photographing life unfiltered and that led me to specializing in documentary wedding photography and child-led family photography. Child-led simply means we embrace the chaos and take the stress out of family photos. I will chase your wild toddler in the dirt and capture their entire personality! No more crying babies and grumpy kiddos while we take a boring posed photo. We empower kids, respect boundaries and create an experience that also results in stunning photos for your home.

Your experience doesn't go straight from booking to the session. When you book with Willow + Smudge you are booking me. As a St. George, Las Vegas and Zion photographer I have found the secret sauce to creating sessions to remember. You recieve a style guide, location selection help, pre-session checklist to ease the mental load and a guided relaxed experience that embraces chaos and emotion. I am here for all body types, relationship dynamics and shades of skin. I refuse to discriminate as the world is already to full of that. When you book your session you are booking a customized experience with me as a memory maker, child tamer, and storyteller.

Testimonials

This was my first official shoot, and I was quite nervous and unsure about posing and what to do. However, Taylor was incredibly patient and guided me every step of the way. She offered fantastic direction on how to pose, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable.

The photos turned out phenomenal—beyond my expectations! Taylor's eye for detail and ability to capture the perfect moments is truly impressive. I was so happy to work with her and felt comfortable throughout the entire session.
