family & portrait photographer

Hi, I'm Tonaya. I am a photographer for the sentimental. I adore raw emotions and authentic connections. The sweet moments in between, the twinkle in one's eyes, their little hand inside yours and the undeniable chemistry between you and that someone special are the  moments I strive to capture.  

As a doting mother of 2, that overwhelming feeling of being in pure awe and in love that time practically stands still is otherworldly. I became obsessed with preserving that feeling. I wanted to cherish it forever. This is where my passion for family photography began. That same feeling through imagery is the gift I want to share with others.
