NAPA FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Capturing playful, relaxed families so your photos feel less posed and more you.

Welcome!

A young woman stands in a vineyard laughing as the sun sets in the distance.

My name is Margaret - but most people call me Margy. I fell in love with photographing kids and families after my sister had her two kids. Watching them grow and being able to document each stage of their little personalities completely captured my heart. What started as simply wanting to freeze moments for our own family quickly turned into a deep passion for preserving memories for others.

I truly believe documenting your family as time passes is one of the most incredible ways to hold time still. The tiny details, the laughter, they deserve to be remembered. My goal is to create images that feel genuine, heartfelt, and timeless so you can look back years from now and relive this season of life all over again.

“Margy met my kids at their level - incorporating play and movement into our family photos. On the drive home, my 4 year old wanted to know when we could do it again! Even my husband had fun!” - Megan

KIND WORDS

  • We get our family photos done with Margy each year. It is worth getting everyone dressed and ready - the kids love looking at the photos together afterwards. We always print them and hang with in our home.

    — Julie, mom of 3

  • As a parent of a child with special needs, I am so thankful for the time and attention Margaret gave our family to set our kids up for success for our family photos. So happy we invested in these photos!

    — Georgia, mom of 2

  • I have very spirited kids - I was blown away at all the amazing images that Margaret captured. Our toddler wasn't interested in having his photo taken, but Margy made it fun, and he warmed up, and didn't want the session to be over!
