Patience for real family life
As a mama of three, I understand shy children, busy toddlers, and babies who need a break. I’ll offer gentle guidance and make room for play, cuddles, and natural moments.

"I love, love, LOVE LillyBugs Photography! Celena has taken so many photos of my family over the years and they always turn out fantastic! She’s great at capturing shots of antsy kids and bringing out their spirit in the photos. She’s done maternity photos, newborn photos, milestone photos, family photos, and even porch photos for us during Covid and I can’t recommend her enough. She’s great with natural lighting and in the studio. I’m forever impressed at what she is able to capture given the moods and attention spans of her subjects. I’m always excited to see the results of our sessions and so thankful to have such beautiful memories preserved for the future."
