wondering who's behind the lens capturing your moments?
Hi, I'm Mercy!
I specialize in pausing family moments
I'm a family, kids and maternity photographer, a full-time mom of four wild children - Nathan (10), Jesse (6), Amelia (5) and Lilianna (2). I'm from Phoenix, Arizona, and am accustomed to outdoor life. I enjoy nature, hiking, and exploring the beauty Arizona has to offer. When I am not behind the camera editing + creating memories with clients, I am out on an adventure. I am an all-around country girl at heart—from music to wardrobe to owning horses and getting in some night rides! When I was younger, I used to joke that I'd never be a doctor, or a lawyer- I'm going to ride off in the sunset and be content in my truck, but now I get to use my time capturing photos and memories for you!
Trust me, I know how much you want to hold on to every second
I've always had a passion for photography. Growing up my mom used to take photos of every event, new experience, our day-to-day activities and made scrapbooks for my siblings and me. She used to always say, if a fire broke out, we needed to help save the albums! I didn't know how important those moments truly were until I had my first son. I started photographing every little moment, the silly looks, the tiny fingers, his grip and toes, his favorite sleeping position and those special giggles. After making countless photo albums and welcoming three more babies, I found a passion in photographs.
It didn’t take long, till my creative hobby got noticed by friends and neighbors from the community, who wanted precious family moments captured in a similar, bold, genuine way. I couldn’t be more grateful for my motherhood journey. Because it's led me to be able to capture another mother's journey through my lens.
