Photography Client Reviews

“We had such a great experience with Athena!”

“I originally was considering doing the photoshoot outside the home because I thought the lighting wasn’t good enough (which would have been a nightmare with a newborn). Thankfully, I went with her suggestion to do them in our home and the pictures turned out beautiful using the natural light from our windows.

She was very professional, caring, and understanding throughout the process. Also, being a mom herself made the experience way more relaxing. She helped calm the baby down and was patient when things didn’t go as planned with timing.”

Experience That Resonates & Quality That Speaks

Meet Your Tampa Photographer: Athena

Nestled in the vibrant heart of South Tampa, FL, my dedication as a newborn and family photographer is to bring your most cherished moments to vivid life. With a keen eye for the emotional and the beautiful, my passion lies in capturing those fleeting instances of joy and connection.

Whether it's the serene bliss of a newborn photo shoot at home or the spontaneous laughter of a family session at one of my preferred outdoor locations, each photograph is a testament to the artistry and heartfelt dedication I bring to my craft.

As a mother of seven, my love for newborn and baby photography is deeply rooted in personal joy, allowing me to capture the delicate beginnings of life with a tender, loving touch and my love for children of all ages allows me to get down on their level and connect with them.
