Hi, we are Henriette & Ayla
We are two photographers based in the Bay Area who teamed up to bring our unique boutique-style studio portraits to schools and families. We met through our children's daycare and quickly discovered a shared love for creating modern, authentic photographs for our community.
Ayla
Photographer
Ayla combines her 10+ years of experience as a family portrait photographer with her background in early childhood education (she taught preschool for 15 years). Having photographed hundreds of families across the Bay Area, Ayla knows how to help children feel at ease and brings out their unique personalities in front of the camera.
Henriette
PHOTOGRAPHER
Henriette has spent over a decade working as a fine art photographer after receiving her masters degree in photography, exploring themes of family, childhood, and human connection. She brings an artistic eye to every portrait, creating images that feel genuine, playful, and timeless.
School Portraits
Our goal is to make beautiful school portraits accessible to all families. We bring our mobile studio directly to schools, provide our services at no cost to the school, and create a relaxed, joyful experience with unique photographs families will treasure.
Our Approach
As moms ourselves, we know that every child is different, and we take the time to connect with them. Creating a warm and engaging atmosphere helps us capture genuine expressions and portraits that reflect each child's unique personality.
Streamlined Process
We aim to make picture day easy for everyone involved. Scheduling is straightforward and everything is handled through us. Families receive a private online gallery with flexible digital ordering, while schools have very little administrative work.
