Photography has taken me from a childhood in East Germany to Hollywood. My younger self definitely didn't see that coming. It still amazes me that my love affair with the camera has introduced me to so many extraordinary people, from young families and entrepreneurs to Hollywood celebrities. I am fortunate to count such well-known personalities as Robert Downey Jr., Robbie Williams, and Josh Duhamel among my clients.
When I'm behind the camera, I love the creative energy that develops between my subjects and me. Somewhere along the way, everyone forgets about the camera, I lose track of time, and we're simply enjoying the moment. There's a wonderful trust that evolves during a session, and watching that turn into treasured photos never gets old!

Each session has its own page with additional information. Simply click on the session of your choice and request the booking guide for all the details.
Start by reaching out through the inquiry form. From there, we’ll discuss your vision, availability, and next steps. My L.A. calendar fills up fast (especially in the Fall), so plan on booking 2-3 months in advance. Atlanta usually books 4-6 weeks in advance.
While there is some overlap, Love Bucket Photo offers distinct services in L.A. and Atlanta. In L.A., I focus on family portraits. In Atlanta, the work centers on maternity, personal and boudoir portraits. In both locations, I offer brand-building photography. That said, I will always do my best to be flexible.
Not at all. Each session is fully guided, and I’ll offer subtle direction. We’ll collaborate with one another so that you feel completely relaxed and comfortable.
L.A. sessions are typically on location – your home, the beach, a canyon. I also often create a small studio-at-home set with a white backdrop. Most Atlanta sessions take place in my private, in-town studio, with the option to shoot in other locations more suitable to a specific project.
After living in L.A. for 15 years, my family relocated to Atlanta, GA in 2021. I now travel to L.A. in the Spring and Fall to continue my longstanding work with my loyal clientele there. It’s whirlwind, but I love it. Atlanta sessions book all year round.
